Sunday while I was shooting Laura and Jason’s engagement session, my husband Roe was shooting me. A couple of things I noticed:
1. I have a serious game face when shooting. Its not that I am mad but just deep in thought. Note to self – Smile more.
2. I squint when looking through the viewfinder. Is this going to cause premature wrinkling?![]()
3. I kneel a lot. How many shots do I get from the vantage point of looking up?
4. I have clearly mastered the art of kneeling and shooting in heels and a dress. Booyah!![]()
5. I still hate getting my picture taken. There my dirty little secret is out. Not uncommon for a lot of photographers but definitely something I need to work on.
And I purposely didn’t post the ones where I have all the weird contortions my face goes through as I am talking to clients. Let’s hope they never see the light of day.







Abbey - Seriously, you have #4 in the Bag. You are looking soo chic. I guess I need to step my game up when I’m shooting. As for #2, I’ve got you beat. I’ve seen some pictures my husband took of me and the faces I make are hilarious!!!!
Amanda Young - Okay, so these are awesome! You look so fabulous; I’m completely and totally jealous.
I’ve never had someone take shots of me throughout a shoot, but my clients have started laughing before [on multiple occasions] and when I ask why it’s either because of some crazy position I’m balanced in without realizing it [I am frequently actually LAYING on the ground] orrrrrr, my personal favorite, because they can see me smiling behind the camera. SMILING. So ridiculous.
Isabel - I love it! I’m glad Ro was able to capture these for you!
P.S. Nice boots!
LeiLani @ Elle Golden Photography - You look seriously fierce while rocking the camera. I’m sure I look a hot mess while out photographing.
Ericha - What a great idea!! I love it! You look great too! I’ve actually been thinking that I want to buy a dress to shoot in, you know for weddings…
Nneka - Great pics! Wow, shooting with boots on huh? Get it girl! lol Cute look!
Latasha - Get it get it get it! i miss shooting in heels. i have bad feet.. had surgery almost two years ago- didnt walk for 2 months… boooooo
