Portrait Fun

Ava

Took a few portraits over the past weekend during my trip home to KY that I wanted to share! I haven’t been taking as much since I started FontCrafts, but I figure I’ll get back to it soon! I go through phases with stuff. Do you do that too?

Chloe’s Photoshoot

On Friday after work, I did a photoshoot with my friend and co-worker Chloe! She’s a copywriter at iLoveToCreate and we work in the same department. She just purchased her first home, so she wanted me to capture her with her new place as well as take some other photos of her. Chloe is so photogenic, so it was a breeze and delight to photograph her! Here’s just a few of the photos from the day.

Fun at the Fresno Digital Workshops Meetup

Fresno Digital Photographers

This weekend, I attended an event I had been looking forward to for a while! The local Fresno Digital Workshops Meetup Group had a photo shoot meetup with real live models! I have wanted to do more portraiture lately and this was a great opportunity for me. I also got meet some other local photographers and I plan on attending more meetups + workshops in the future (there’s a great one on Creative Lighting I want to attend.)

Portraiture is my favorite type of photography! I don’t get too much of a kick out of nature or action, but I love making a connection with my subject and capturing their essence.

I was bummed cause I left some weird lens on my telephoto lens and it made all my closeups. Boo! I was upset with myself, but I guess it’s a lesson learned.

I am so inspired after my session that I bought a big reflector and stand. I can’t wait to take more portraits. I have one with my friend Tar’lese coming up. If you are in Fresno and would like to work with me on a portraiture shoot, send me an e-mail!
