Helping a Mom find her smile again!
Hey everyone, I just had to share this heartwarming story about my client Dev. She's not just a mom and doctor, but also an incredibly strong woman who recently overcame a tough time and wanted to celebrate by capturing her smile in a photo session. I'm honored that she chose me to be her photographer!
As a fellow woman, mother, and photographer, I wanted to make sure the images I created truly reflected Dev's spirit and joy. One common worry I often hear from my clients is not knowing how to pose or what to wear for a photo shoot, but I'm here to take all that stress away. I guide my clients through the entire process, from outfits to posing, and of course, finding their best smile.
Every photo shoot is a collaboration, and I love chatting with my clients beforehand to understand their vision and then bringing it to life during the session. The result? Timeless, genuine images that capture the true essence of the people I photograph.
On shoot day, my clients arrive at my Brooklyn, NY studio prepared and prepped. I always have their wardrobe options laid out for them, complete with accessories. This way, my clients can relax and luxuriate while being pampered. Dev chose a beautiful gown from my studio wardrobe. Next, we selected classic and understated accessories. After that, I turned Dev over to my hair and makeup team, who continued to love on and pamper her. During my pre-shoot consultation with Dev, she wanted her shoot to reflect her transition period, smile, and resilience, which is why she chose moody lighting; she is smiling in some photos and not others. During the shoot, I directed and talked her through the emotions of each image and posing. Because I get to know my clients before they step in front of my camera, I can guide them into poses and expressions that are authentic to them. During the shoot, we talked and laughed. It seemed as though two old friends met up to talk (one in full glam) and took photos in between. The result is the images below. Doesn’t Dev have a beautiful smile?
I’m passionate about my clients and creating art that allows them to celebrate and love themselves no matter their stage in life. If you would like to book a shoot, mosey on over to my website and fill out the contact form. I would love to work with you.
Until next time!
