Style. Shoot. Share. Workshop 2014

     I attended a working workshop a week ago and had a great time learning and working with other photographers. The day was filled with styled shoots, wedding dresses, models, pretty props, stations and tons of prettiness!! I had always wanted to attend one and so I finally got the opportunity to... and it was such a great experience! If you ever have the chance to learn more about your craft, whether it be through workshops, classes, collaborations....definitely do it! It will open up your mind to fresh ideas, and help push you forward, as well as meet others in your field. I came home with a portfolio full of photographs...here are my favorite ones, Enjoy!

Lifestyle Portraits | Fashion | Laura's Senior Prom

     I've always loved all of the details that pertain to Prom. The pretty dresses to choose from, the choice of heels, which sparkly jewelry to wear....and the list goes on and on! It's a day of excitement that you get to enjoy with your high school friends before you graduate, and everyone looks glamourous. Laura's Mom and Sister wanted to surprise her with a portrait session before she headed off to her Senior Prom, and so I shot a few in her home. 

     Our town has a big block party, where the students and their dates are announced and get to walk on the blue carpet for everyone to see, right before their limos and party buses whisk them away for the night. Laura looked absolutely stunning and ready to go to the Oscars in the beautiful dress she chose... needless to say it made me want to dress up and go to prom all over again! Here are a few of my favorites of Laura...Enjoy!!
