Inspired By Adorableness :)

It's been interesting to me how my views on photography and, more specifically, what I can do within the photography field, have changed over the years.

When I first started out, there was one type of working photographer in my mind. That was a talented person with a camera who shot weddings and portraits. Then between photography school and my own research and trial and error, I found out I also REALLY enjoy art, and I love shooting models. Even better- I love shooting 'normal' women in Boudoir, Unbridaled, and most recently, Fine Art Portrait sessions, showing them how extraordinary and beautiful they truly are!

I figured out that a photography doesn't have to be done in a studio (which is good, because although I do some fashion work in-studio, I am SO much better and more inspired on location!) and I figured out I'm not cut out for a steady diet of wedding photography. Wedding photography is like ice cream for me- I really enjoy it in small amounts, but if I did it constantly, I would end up with a tummy ache...or ulcers, I suppose.

The latest HUGE life change for me has come in the package of the most adorable little model in the world whom I am constantly shooting...mostly because she's mine! :D And at 5 months, she's already growing up so fast! I want to capture it all- the expressions, the constant changes in the color of her eyes and the length of her hair (she was born with a mop of it!), everything she learns and all of her firsts... it's so rewarding and wonderful!

So it hasn't been a big jump to decide that I would love to capture that for my clients, as well- artwork of these wonderful moments in childhood. As the weather warms up, I'm looking forward to picking dates for sessions that are already scheduled, and I just can't wait! Some on Spring!!!

Where will I go from here? Who knows... but I'm sure enjoying the ride!
