THE JOURNAL OF A CONFIDENCE COACH & PHOTOGRAPHER
Unfiltered. Just like my photography.
Consider this my little corner of the internet where the filter comes off. I'm sharing the tips I wish someone had told me earlier, the stories that still make me laugh, the lessons that came the hard way, and everything in between. Whether you're a business owner trying to figure out how to show up online, or just someone who wants to stop dreading the camera, you're in the right place. Twenty-two years of experience, zero fluff. Welcome to my journal.
It’s not about the camera, it’s how you use it!
A great portrait is more than just the sharpness of the image or the technical specifications of your equipment. It's about capturing emotion, telling a story, and eliciting a reaction from your audience.
Have you ever wondered why many portrait images' backgrounds are so blurred?
The Aperture is the opening in the lens that allows light to pass through the camera and onto the sensor. And this opening can be sized to control the light entering the camera, but it also creates a blurred background. But let's dive deeper so you know next time you want to shoot the perfect portrait.
Natural light
It's been such a long time since I have written about my work, but considering we are in another lockdown, I figured in between the endless housework and homeschooling, I could take some time to write about what I have been shooting!
