Professional camera’s usually start off at about $500 dollars. However, if you are interested in photography, I always recommend starting with what you have and working your way up. Having an expensive camera does not mean you are going to have professional level pictures, so practice…

Hug, Kiss or even just talk! Show that you are connected somehow. But don’t awkwardly stand next to someone. It’s weird. Don’t be weird…

My goal is to tell a story with every image. I am so excited because I am already so inspired with ideas…

Here is everything you need to do to prepare for your portrait sessions! Here are all the things you need so you can have an amazing session every time!

Use your hands to create shape in your body. You don’t want your hands to be straight at your side. This can cause you to look wider. Instead you want to create curves and shapes with your hands, and legs. Look at the picture below, notice the slight curve in the arm where the arrow is pointing. This curve helps create a shape. And then look at this leg. He has one leg behind the other and so his body is almost creating some curves.

Some days, I have multiple sessions that I am trying to tackle whilst other days (such as today) I am working on my updating my website, and making sure I have content for my Instagram/Faceboook. Tomorrow I will likely be reviewing my contracts for clients to ensure that the process is as smooth as it can be for my client.

I love them so much because they strip away all the color and leave the bare bones. They remove the distractions and you are left with something that is really quite beautiful. I try in every single session to include at least 1 black and white photo, and I typically leave it toward the end because I feel like its such a nice way to close a session. I think black and white pictures are so powerful, and there is an elegance to them.

This idea of minimalism is something that I have tried to incorporate in all aspects of my life including my business. If you notice, my website is very minimal. Everything is simple. I don’t have anything on my website that does not serve a purpose. Even with my pictures, I don’t include dates/captions or anything more than what I think is necessary. If you look at my booking Information, it has my prices. Everything is simple, and straightforward…
