My philosophy
Beauty can be found in all shapes, colors, sizes and moods
Everybody is gorgeous!
I believe that eveyone is a beautiful person and it is their inner beauty radiating through their skin that makes them beautiful on the outside. I have found that when people are their authentic selves (with all your quirkiness on full display), is when I get my best photos. Even if it a posed picture, as long as it is natural to you it is beautiful. I am neither interested nor would recommend showing off yourself in an unauthentic way. So keep yourself weird, quirky, messy, clean, vibrant, monotone or anything. You are beautiful through my lens
Small moments = Big moments
I believe that some of our seemingly unimportant moments we experience sometimes contain the most meaning. Almost just as much as the big moments. Moments such as your cat showing her belly when you walk by her or your lovely aunt shedding tears at your wedding or how your spouse holds you while kissing all form the foundation of your big life. Paying attention and capturing such moments are what makes our big moments feel complete.
Candid > Posed
I believe some of my best portraits and shots has been when things are represented in its authentic light. Even when it comes to pets or little kids or nature in itself, preserving thier/ its authenticity is what makes for most of my pictures. That is not to say that posed pictures dont have their place but lets be real here, other than adult humans, no one can look their best while posing.
