This may be one of the dorkiest things to say but… I absolutely love my hometown (and I’m okay with it)! I was born, raised, and still live in the City of Morris and I could not be prouder. Most people want to leave their hometown after high school, but I’m extremely happy to still

When my client, Toni, scheduled her personal brand photography session for January, she knew we would most likely have to be indoors

Personal Branding, Photography

I have some clients that are uncomfortable being in front of the camera (ok… most of them!) but that shouldn’t stop anyone from getting their picture taken.
