I want to capture the essence of who you are
I will work with you in your portrait session to make you feel as comfortable as possible in what can be a super uncomfortable environment. Being in front of the camera can be a very confronting prospect, in a new space, with a new person, and I know it can be challenging when I am asking you to be vulnerable and open up to me.
It is so rewarding to me as a photographer while I am editing your images, to see you open up and become so confident and assured over the course of a session.
I can’t help but smile back at you while I am editing because you have relaxed and shown me how beautiful you are, and the gorgeous light everyone else sees in you.
I feel a strong connection to history, genealogy and stories. I want to help document images of you now, whether it’s a special treat, a gift from a loved one, or you are in a period of transition in your life that deserves recording.
Record a story that was significant to your session, whether it is about the stage of life you are at, or something that you wore in your session that has a special meaning, so that these stories can be passed down with the images and future generations can hear in your own words what had such meaning to you at this time.
This is your legacy.
Below is some extra information that you may find useful about a photoshoot session with me, or click the button below to get in touch and organise a complimentary consultation to discuss what sort of session would best suit you and your style.
I chose to do this because women in particular tend to take a step back behind the camera after all the milestone events (18th and 21st birthdays, engagements, weddings, pregnancies) and become invisible. They are normally the ones documenting their world around them, but not being recorded in it.
