One of my wife's piano students has a deep passion for dance. Her mother asked me to take some photos of her in both her piano attire and dance outfit for her concert programs, as well as some portfolio shots in the studio. To offer something special, I suggested a photo that captured her love for both piano and dance. We posed her on the piano in her dance attire and created a beautiful image that her mother fell in love with. She ended up purchasing the photo as a large art piece, which now has a special place hanging above their piano. It's always rewarding to create something that resonates with our clients, and this experience was no exception.
"Juggling Motherhood, an MBA, and Bodybuilding: A Portrait of Jamie"
Over the years, I have had the pleasure of photographing Jamie on multiple occasions. She is a remarkable woman who juggles many roles - she's a devoted single mother to a beautiful daughter, possesses an MBA, serves in the Navy Reserves, and is a bodybuilder. During one of our photoshoots, Jamie wore a striking red dress. She confided in me that, as a tomboy growing up, fashion wasn't her forte. However, I must say that the red dress looked absolutely stunning on her.
As a creator, I always recommend bringing multiple outfits and accessories to a photoshoot. This provides me with various options to experiment with and find the perfect combination of clothing, posing, and props that bring out the best in a person and their surroundings.
"Prescribing Professionalism: Elevating Your Headshots and Business Photos with a Personal Touch"
Elizabeth approached us seeking a professional headshot for her medical residency application. I recommended taking additional business photos for her LinkedIn and other platforms. As a nod to her profession as a doctor, I suggested incorporating a stethoscope as a prop. The session was enjoyable, and Elizabeth looked fantastic. I believe that a fun atmosphere results in the best photographs.
