WANT SOME TEA?!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder theory and imposter syndrome 😩
✨Long post✨
to me, there is no right or wrong when it comes to photography because it’s a form of art and expression. Often times I will ask someone to take a photo of me or take a photo of one of my kids at the start of my sessions and at the end of my session. As the light changes, so does the need for editing to keep it streamlined. Some of my sessions are dark and moody while others are and dramatic and others are my classic light and airy go to vibe. Everyone has different preferences on what beauty is from person to person including art taking a photo. It’s not to be vain. It’s to make sure that when I’m editing your gallery that it turns out as beautiful as I envisioned it to be. Here’s an example of one photo with a few different styles of edits. I love them all yet. They’re slightly different and often times I tweak and redo and tweak and redo until I think it’s just right lol! I love that you guys always immediately upgrade your gallery and on the rare occasion, someone may or may not like something about their gallery and it never offends me, especially if it matches the example post bc we all view beauty differently, and that’s OK.
I constantly struggle with imposter syndrome. Yes- I have 23,000 followers. Yes, you guys keep me booked out. Yes, you alwyas upgrade your galleries which means you REALLY like your galleries. But I still doubt myself daily lol. I know that’s not great to admit to others or say out loud especially as a professional wanting to be recognized and respected. I think it comes from wanting perfection. Wanting yall to love your session. Wanting to make my work stand out and be the best it can be. Sometimes I’ll edit a gallery, and then critique and reedit 3 more times spending 8 hours on a gallery that should have taken 1. lol, yes I’m a little neurotic. But it’s bc I care 🫶
