For me, it’s all about building lasting relationships with people I photograph.
I photographed Josh and Tara’s kids a few months ago, Then last month, Josh’s co-worker sent around an email to her work group looking for a recommendation of a photographer to capture her daughter Anya’s first birthday. Josh sent along my website and next thing you know I’m surrounded by cake and balloons! Thanks Josh!
Anya was so fun to photograph! She was giggling, dancing and being adorable at every turn! Then, her mom sat her down in front of a birthday cake topped with yellow duckies made out of frosting. Anya sat there, sizing up the cake. A tentative hand went out to grab one of the ducks, thinking it was going to be plastic, but then it squished between her fingers! She opened her hand and looked at the yellow frosting that used to be a duck. The look of confusion on her face was priceless!! After a few moments, she put her fingers in her mouth. AH HA!!! Now she was catching on!! Soon frosting was all over and she was giggling and even shared some with her mom!!
