I remember walking up the steps to the Kennedy home for the first time feeling incredibly nervous… it was my first shoot as a “professional.” This is about five and a half years ago… I had a Rebel, one less-than-stellar lens, and I felt like I had no idea what I was doing! But… I also had confidence in my resourceful nature, creativity, and high-energy personality to make it work.
When I look back at my photographs from this very first pro shoot, I see a lot of what I’ve since become known for… classic pictures of emotional, playful, intimate moments. I also see shots that have become my trademark…
Such as the double profile portrait…
…extreme close-ups…
…playfulness…
…and my Bed Portraits…
I’ll be totally honest with you – I shot this session completely on automatic and spent about a week in post! Hahaaa! Things sure have changed a lot since then, and I have been so blessed, but take a peek at my most recent shoot HERE of the Kennedy’s 5 years later, and you’ll see some similarities 🙂
