FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Many, many, many photography courses, and a license in cosmetology (hair/makeup). My most recent in person workshop was with New York Headshot Photographer, Peter Hurley. I'm an information junkie. I feel like there's always more to learn, and new ways to recreate and repurpose the same techniques and get new results.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I've been styling friends & family for photoshoots since I was in my teens- so that's 30 years! I've worked for national photo chains, taken college courses, assisted photographers, and studied and read everything I could get my hands on in both photography, and cosmetology for as long as I can remember. Where film was frustrating, digital is satisfying, because we KNOW what we are getting before we process the negatives. My combined knowledge of hair/makeup, posing, and photography gives me a strong skillset to create dynamic images.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
My clientele tends to be mainly professional women; from executives to entrepreneurs, in business and the arts. I tend to attract friendly, yet driven women with a passion for living life to the fullest. My clients often have a solid unique streak running through them, and can appreciate the lengths we go to to get that perfect shot!
