Can you feel the energy coming off of this shot?!

Like, cmon.

I figured I’d give ya’ll some fierceness for Friday.

Ya’ll like that alliteration? lol.

I’ll let you all know when she and I set something more concrete as far as scheduling and shooting. Maybe I’ll live stream it if I have someone assisting me the day of πŸ˜‰

I love when I catch a natural smile during a shoot. You can fake a smile but, the real, unprompted ones are so much better ☺️. It’s such a great feeling when you form a connection with the people you’re photographing. It’s one of my favorite things about capturing people. The energy exchange is incredible when you have a good rapport. I can’t wait to start shooting this woman again 😊

Hey folks! Sorry I’ve been away for so long..

Guess who I’m in talks with about shooting again!! Melissa B 😜. If you’ve been following my work for awhile, you know that she’s easily one of my favorite muses. We create amazing work together and we’re talking about shooting again in the near future. Isn’t she super cute?!

Is anyone else looking forward to seeing what we’ll create together? πŸ˜ƒ

I love how vulnerable this image is. There’s something very honest about the chilly room and Jackiee’s eyes here.

A photo worthy of a Friday post!

C’mon. Look at the pose and tell me this isn’t a fun image to look at. I mean, that’s what we’re after, right? Creating images that intrigue people or provoke thoughts or, help tell someone’s story.

This pose is Melissa through and through. There’s no better shot to help usher you into a fun-filled, relaxing weekend. That’s a wrap for this week but, feel free to peruse my site and check out my other posts while you’re here.

Go create something! Or patronize someone else who does 😊

Windswept Wednesday? 😜

I love capturing windswept hair in my shots. I never plan for it but I love when it happens! On another note- Check out this pose and tell me it doesn’t ooze confidence! This woman’s swag is just off the charts.. She does her own styling and makeup and always shows up looking trendy and cute as hell. Then I tell her it’s go time and she’s on like a light bulb until I say “that’s a wrap”.

We click when we work together and that’s an awesome feeling to experience. Get out there and find the people who make you want to keep creating and push on through the rest of the week!

Oh. Windswept Wednesday could DEFINITELY be a thing πŸ˜„πŸ‘ŒπŸΎ

Tuesday Evening- Hi folks :-)

Glamour, natural light, photography, Portrait, portraiture

As the title mentions, it’s Tuesday evening. I hope everyone’s week is going well so far.

I have so much fun when I work with this model. We laugh and joke the whole time, yet we never stop working until we’re about to part ways for the day. She shows up very prepared and means business once I turn my camera on. I’ve done a bunch of work with her in the past and hopefully the future will bring us together soon to create more magic!

Here’s to building a network of creatives!

Stare down the last day of the week like…..

I love this shot because of how her hair looks windswept. She had this look going on that day with the she was cocking her eyebrows at the camera. I’m glad I caught a shot of her doing it. When she gets in her zone, she oozes confidence! Alexis Salim-38Watermarked hi res
