I didn't bring my filters with me to but the instructor at a workshop I was at () brought one out after it ended (I think it might be ?) and I knew I wanted to grab a couple more shots with it, and I'm glad I did! There's something cherubic about it. Thank you for the lovely pose !

**Finally fixed cross posting from Instagram. I originally posted this there on Jan 21!**

I've added a few new photos to my website (https://leadrolestudio.com)! I'm also excited about my upcoming artist collaborations, where I get to use more of my creativity than with corporate headshots (though both still allow us to dig deep into what makes you do what YOU do with my values elicitation process!). Multiple exposures, gelled lights, dramatic shadows, slide projections--pulling out all the tricks and toys! More to come in the next few months. Speaking of the near future, I am also relocating to Berkeley in March, but will continue to be available throughout the SF Bay Area. ♥️🌉

What's the meaning behind color? Besides choosing colors that are flattering to your skin, hair, and eyes, it's important to also think of how colors can affect how you're perceived. White and are incredibly popular for a good reason. Is it right for you, though? Luckily, it's easy to change a solid backdrop to whatever makes the most sense for your . This is something that can be determined ahead of time during our branding session, or sometimes afterwards, when we review the proofs and discuss editing. I can make suggestions, match a swatch or logo, or you can give me the exact Pantone or hexadecimal color to match.

So which color(s) would you choose?

Thanks to for letting me demonstrate this with his awesome new , which we shot on a using my and
