What Will I Receive? 

Storytime...

It was early 2015 and I was sitting in my car after photographing an engagement session. I was scrolling through the images on my camera and I remember thinking "This doesn't even feel like me, anyone could take this." I started my car to drive home and started going through the session in my head. The crazy part was I really couldn't remember much. I had robotically went through the session, pose after pose, like I was following some dumbed down recipe on how to photograph couples.

See the problem with this is, every couple is different, every person is different. There is no way you can apply the same pose to everyone and expect it to work. Also, how in the world are we supposed to create work we are excited about if we are doing it the same way EVERY SINGLE TIME.

That simple mindset shift was the first step in my journey towards finding myself as an artist and boldly daring to do things differently than the industry told me I needed to do to be successful. Things I learned along the way:

• I needed to care about my clients to be able to photograph them.
• Emotive work set my soul on fire and kept me coming back week after week even when I was busy.
• Scripted prompts and poses made me uncomfortable and disconnected from the session.
• Directing and connective sessions were the secret to me being a happier more fulfilled artist. 

Yes, in this class I will share exactly how I create a space to encourage my couples during their shoot, exactly how I photograph couples, edit and market to them. BUT this class will also be much more than me just showing you what I do. It's a deep dive and reflection on what you need to be a great artist.
