Life of a Photographer:
I have mentioned a few times that one of my passions in life is photography. Throughout these past few weeks or so my photography business has been quite busy. From taking birthday photoshoots for fellow teammates to couple shoots for Christmas cards it has been a blast! Now the weather plays a key roll in shoot times and ideas. Living and working in Arkansas you never really know what the weather will be like. Something that I believe proves this is a shoot I did two weeks ago where it was warm enough for me and a client to get in water for some amazing photos!
This shoot idea was one I had been dying to try out and finally got a client excited for the idea! Funny enough I had to convince her that there were no leaches or giant carnivorous fish swimming in extremely shallow water.
Working with couples is probably one of my favorite things to do as a photographer! I love getting to know clients and their stories. This couples has been together for five years and they are so precious! I love watching their personalities and how they mix. For example, Maeson is extremely introverted and quite whereas Sean is outgoing always making her laugh. Clients like these make this job so much fun!
One of my personal favorites about doing this job is it combines many of my passions. I love when clients ask if I work with pets and could include them in the shoot! Dogs are a huge ray of sunshine in my life and at one point in my life I was considering veterinarian school. These two pups Piper and Toby were in my most recent shoots. I loved every second of it!
The best thing about being a photographer is meeting new people and getting your name out there while having so much fun at the same time! My interest in photography was quite random but grew from my first interest in high school to now. I have multiple bookings for the rest of the month as well as the next month! I was so excited for this visual journalism assignment to able and showcase my work from the past few weeks. However, I am extremely sad that this is my last semester taking courses from Professor Reppert. I guess what they say is true time does fly when you are having fun.
