My Style Of Photography

Jun 18

What is my style of Photography? I am definitely an outdoor based photographer. This means that I mostly shoot outdoors! I use the beautiful outdoors as my backdrop! And being that we are in Southern Illinois, there is no shortage of beautiful places to take pictures.

Some of my favorite places to takes pictures are parks, lakes, backyards, hills, fields, and basically any place outside where I can find good lighting! I mostly shoot in the afternoons or early mornings in order to capture the best lighting! I rely heavily on mother nature to provide me with the tools I need and she never disappoints! I also do some indoor sessions! These are typically in home sessions where I go into the clients home and capture images of them in their environment. I find these images tend to be more intimate as it usually involves a family in their home! Due to the COVID pandemic, I have limited the number of indoor sessions I am currently doing but hope to do more in the future!

In addition to mostly capturing images outside, I also tend to capture movement, and genuine emotion. I try every single session to capture someone genuinely laughing! During sessions, I will have couples dancing or whispering really weird things to each other! Its all about creating an environment where people feel comfortable enough to be themselves! If I can achieve that and manage to capture it on camera, then I have succeeded. My work may not always be technically right but the emotion will always be there!
