He asked me, “what’s your number?” Which is code for, WHEN IS ENOUGH, ENOUGH? It came off the back of a conversation about growth, goals, financial security expectations. And, like, is there a point when you look at your business, and think–yeah–this is it, I’m ready to take my foot off the pedal? His message […]
On a recent trip, I left my book behind to catch up on work but couldn’t pass up the latest issue of Harvard Business Review…
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with so much to do to grow your business. That’s why today, I wanted to break it down and give you three simple tips to help jumpstart your business…
I’m really proud of something. Can I just be real? Will it sound like I’m bragging? I’m really good at COLLABORATION. If you’d ask my mother, she’d say it had to do with me being born a twin, but I think it has more to do with finding great people who share similar values and […]
To say I’ve met some amazing people by way of podcasts would be a major understatement. >>Not only are these podcast hosts kind, smart, and good, but they have taught me SO much!<< It’s been an honor to be a guest on the following podcasts, and I’d be honored for you to check them out. […]
Can you believe we’re enjoying the best parts of Fall? I hope the start of autumn has been filled with beautiful memories, deep breaths, and warm beverages in the chilly months…yummmm, just thinking of coffee, spiced lattes, and cider makes me happy! Speaking of that, I’m sending you a behind-the-scenes look at how I photograph […]
Growing up my parents chided me for talking too much. I was the kid in junior high who fought—and won—a battle over my school’s system for library fines by talking to every teacher and official who’d listen. Years later, I’m thrilled I’ve found a career that allows me to use my chatty ways to make […]
Taking a basic photo of a person is rather straightforward and uncomplicated. But then again, who wants to be the photographer who aspires only for safe photos? Capturing a dynamic portrait comes with a little practice. In this video I dissect my three key portrait techniques (yes, there’s a method to my madness): Ensure you […]
After I’d photographed couples long enough, I reached a point where I wanted to capture fun moments between these two people in love. It sounded easy, but capturing those breezy, carefree moments between my clients has proven to be one of the most difficult hurdles of my artistic career. How does one get fun photos […]
One of the questions I’m most frequently asked is how a photographer can master backlighting a subject. There are myriad sources I could cite on the subject, but it really boils down to one factor: practice. It wasn’t until I started photographing objects backlit in the comfort of my home that I began to understand […]
Most of the engagement sessions I shoot are outdoors but occasionally a client will request an indoor location to spice things up and/or personalize their session. When this happens, I need to plan in advance how I’ll approach this portion of the shoot. I’ll also take the time to carefully explain what I need my […]
The majority of my engagement shoots are on-location in natural light, so it’s important I arrive early and scope out the property in advance. In addition to getting comfortable with the location, I’m also finding natural reflectors I can use later during the shoot. The key for me is to create an outline for the […]
When I started my business, before each shoot I would worry over how to pose my subjects. Like, for days. Oh, yes, I’d spend so much time leading up to the shoot worrying, I’d run out of things to say to my couple and ideas for posing them! And then I’d imagine myself having to […]
I’m the type of person who asks too many questions. My questions usually lead to more questions and it’s no shock I drive my dearest friends crazy. In light of this, I’ve decided to answer in advance those questions my clients might have for me during a shoot. This usually manifests itself in an explanation […]
