I was contacted by a lovely family from out of state about taking some graduation pictures for them. As the event got closer, they also decided to grab some family pictures while we were out and about. The arboretum has a relatively new policy that you have to pay a $26.50 fee to take pictures there, so we filled out the necessary paperwork and mailed a check to cover that cost. It is well worth the money, as we got some great pictures!
Read MoreIn my 5+ years as a photographer, I’ve been extremely lucky to get to work with all kinds of amazing human beings. As you’d expect, every couple is different from the next. Some are all about the PDA, some are all about keeping it sweet and romantic, and some people… well, some people are just downright hysterical!
Meet Adam and Shannon, two of the goofiest people I’ve worked with in a while. The session took place at Masterson Station Park, which was a great backdrop for our time together. The fun they had during the shoot helped us to get some great pictures! The entire time these two were cracking jokes and picking on each other, and I was there to catch it all on camera.
I love asking how people meet. “Adam became friends with my father through being a sales representative for a local parts store and my father had an interest for working on older cars in his free time. Once Adam and my father became friends, we met through my dad at his shop. We had known each other for years before we decided to give dating a shot.”
Read MoreI was contacted by Jimmy on Alignable (check out my link here). He had started his own computer repair company and he was in need of some good headshots for his website and social media presence. He expressed to me that he would feel a little uncomfortable and he was hoping to find a reasonably priced photographer that would be non-judgmental and hopefully friendly enough to help his comfort level. I assured him that my assistant and I would help to make sure he had an enjoyable photo shoot.
We met in the downtown area of Lexington to try to capture a more corporate look. I could tell he was a little nervous, but it wasn’t very long until we were laughing and Jimmy was camera ready. The sun didn’t always cooperate with us during the shoot, but Jimmy showed great patience as we walked around and looked for appropriate backgrounds. Throughout the shoot, I could see his confidence growing and his smile showing more as well. He left a glowing review (below). All in all, I think we got some great shots that he will be able to use for his company!
