Its All Made Up

Photography is referred to as painting with light. Using light in the right way is what can make a photo look good or bad. That’s where a professional photographer is separated from a non-professional photographer. We paint the right things with the light so that it looks best. That can be a difficult thing to do at times when the light isn’t always ‘controllable’. When that happens we have other tricks up our sleeves.

What we do is bring in the reinforcements, another painter! But this painter does her thing with a different kind of brush… a ‘makeup brush’. Yaismelly (pronounced Jazmelly) is a makeup artist and hair stylist and she is a good one at that! She has some great ideas for makeup and hairstyles so we decided to do a shoot to showcase one of them.

Just a little preparation:

The look that she was going for was to seem lost in nature. I think the makeup and hair came out fantastically! And our model Ashanti did an excellent job as well! Look for some more work from Yaismelly in some future posts!

Baby Yesenia

Welcome to the world a new beautiful life. Meet Yesenia Isabella. This is the first time I’ve done an actual newborn session and I must admit I was scared out of my mind! But in all honesty Yesenia actually put me at ease. She is such a beautiful baby and has two caring and loving parents. I’m really looking forward to our next sessions that will be coming up soon :)

Jess & Derek (part 1)

It’s a wonderful feeling to be in love. The birds are always singing. The sun is always shining. Happiness is all around you! While out and about with Jess and Derek that happiness was so apparent between the two of them. They were having so much fun! It was a cold and windy day but that didn’t stop them from making the best of it. Although, we are going to continue with another session on another day when the weather is a little more pleasing. It was really nice being able to share this time with them though, to see how they were in front of the camera. Derek may not want to admit it, but I think deep down inside he had the time of his life having his pictures taken :) Jess is a natural and the two really compliment each other so well. It’s good to be in love!
