Today’s tip on how to look better on camera

Slow Down!

Most people think they need more energy on camera.

What they actually need is to slow down.

When we’re nervous, we tend to rush our words, movements, and expressions. But slowing down makes you appear more confident, more professional, and more in control.

Take a deep breath.
Pause before you speak. Let your movements be intentional.

Calm confidence always looks better on camera.

Some sessions are extra special.

I first photographed her in kindergarten, and now I had the privilege of taking her prom portraits.

One of the greatest gifts of being a photographer is watching families grow and being trusted to capture so many important milestones along the way.

Congratulations on your prom! You looked absolutely stunning, and I can’t wait to see where life takes you next 💙

Planning a summer trip?
Check these iPhone camera settings first:

✅grid and level
✅Live Photos
✅24 MP or 48 MP
✅View outside the frame
✅Lens correction

Plus remember:
Avoid digital zoom whenever possible

These simple settings can help you capture straighter horizons, sharper images, better action shots, and more detail in those incredible mountain views!

📌save this post before your vacation.

And be sure to share your pics with me!!

Office manager Piper barely pulling it together for humpday. I’m going for another coffee while she is going to rally for a day of proofing, scoping new session locations, and keeping the world safe from squirrels 🐿️.

Loved this session!

They brought the dresses, the flowers, and the smiles.

I had the privilege of preserving a few moments from a day that I am sure went by way too fast. ✨✨

Here’s another tip in my series to help you look better on camera 📸

Lighting can completely change how you look on camera/video.
Window light is a flattering option because it is soft and even.

Side lighting creates drama and harsh shadows.

Backlighting can make your face too dark.

Before taking that picture or recording your video always check your lighting.

It’s prom and grad season 👩‍🎓

Today I’m photographing some amazing people on their way to prom. It made me dig up my own prom photos.

At the time, I never imagined I’d be looking back at this photograph decades later. Yet here I am.

The fashions change.

The memories don’t.
