Dianna has so much personality🔥

This is of my favorite parts of the job — the more I learn about you, the easier it is to let your photos reflect who you actually are.

We had been shooting for 2 hours already and Dianna was still enjoying it! 🙌🏼

A lot of introverts tell me “I feel shy in front of the camera,” or “I don’t know how to pose.”

That’s completely ok.
We actually don’t jump straight into posing.
We start with a conversation about you and what you want the photos to show.
It’s easier than what you think 😉

If you’re an introvert too, book a free discovery call and we’ll talk about how you want to be photographed.

Posing can feel funny at first, and that’s normal.

This moment had all of us laughing, but that’s usually how it goes.
You warm up, get comfortable, then starts to feel less like a photoshoot.

I try to keep it simple. I just follow you around, not forcing anything.
That’s when it feels most natural.

If you have been putting off a shoot because you are worried it will feel awkward, we will take it one step at a time (and maybe have a few laughs in between!)

You warm up, get comfortable, until it starts to feel less like a “photoshoot”.

As your photographer, I try to keep it simple.
I just follow you around, not forcing anything.

Posing with a friend usually makes things easier.

There’s less awkwardness, more movement, and a natural chemistry that shows in the photos.

Jane and Joyce made it look effortless. 💯

I like giving people the space to be themselves in front of the camera..That’s usually when the best moments happen. 👍🏼

This one just happened!

We were just talking about something random. She laughed, and I clicked.

These moments are usually my favorite when nothing feels forced and we’re not really trying too hard.

Sometimes the best photos happen when you stop thinking about being photographed.👌🏼
