For advertising and commercial work, I approach the task with a business mindset. I seek to understand the business objectives so that I can deliver imagery that is not only of excellent quality but delivers on the business goals of the client. I work hard to become not only the photographer, but also a valued member of the client's team.
My photographic style for commissioned portraiture is heavily influenced toward a high-end fashion look due my work and experience in that area. I’ve been described by others as very easy to work with and have also been accused of being “fun.” My goal is to provide you with the best photographs that you have ever seen of yourself and make you feel beautiful, elegant and empowered in the the process.
I am based in Nashville, Tennessee and travel throughout the United States and to international locations as well. Nashville is an amazing city that is fast becoming a major fashion market in the United States but I still love to go Paris, London, Milan, Toronto and other destinations. In fact, I would encourage you to consider photographic projects in wonderful locations. You will not only end up with amazing photos but you will have a great experience as well. I travel frequently so there is always a chance I may be near!
I actually love to hear that because I take it as a personal challenge. Most people believe they are not "photogenic" because they haven't seen many photographs of themselves that they like. They haven't made the connection that photographs come from photographers and that by choosing a skilled photographer they will get good photographs. I find great pleasure in changing that mindset and coaching you through posing flows to make beautiful images.
Of course! Our marketing efforts are aimed primarily at women because they generally constitute our largest client group. We provide the same services for men. If you need professional photography for your business or personal brand, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Most of my work centers around commercial fashion photography and commissioned fashion-styled portraiture. I also am becoming much more involved in personal branding work because I am convinced of the high value it provides to my clients.
Yes - that is true. I have designed my professional and personal lifestyle for balance and satisfaction. I definitely have a quality over quantity mindset and am always actively working with specific goals/workflows and timelines. Additionally, because I have projects and travel interspersed throughout the year it is necessary that I limit the number of shoots. What this means is that you may not be able to hire me for next week (although sometimes that is possible) but will likely have to schedule some time out.
