FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
With a new client, the immediate goal is to get a better sense of who they are. Specifically, get a better sense of what they like and dislike. Art is very subjective. For this reason, it is our goal to identify what characteristics clients are drawn to and what characteristics clients back away from. Once we get a preview of their viewpoint, we then tailor our images to include the characteristics they love and minimize the characteristics they least love. We can't highlight enough the importance of getting to know our clients. That is why we prefer having the first conversation with our clients to be thorough, engaging, and informative.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I graduated from UCSD and I worked in the financial industry. Being in the field gave me clarity in that I want to build something tangible that I can proud to call my own. They say simply, "do what you love." I love photography. I love seeing the moment people see themselves in my work and are filled with overwhelming joy. That is how I got into starting my photography business.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
An advice I have for customers looking for a photographer is to make sure they have an adequate foundation in lighting, posing, and post-processing. Photographers who just should aimlessly are not true photographers, but people with expensive cameras. Photographers are coaches, who will guide you to look your most confident self.
