Different Styles ROCK! Pensacola Studio Photographer

Posted in Personal

I am a member of a local meetup.com group, The Emerald Coast Photography Group. I joined when I first purchased my DSLR in May 2010. I am very drawn to studio lights. While others find it limiting to shoot in a studio, I find it very relaxing and inspirational. The studio owner, while we do not have the same vision when it comes to style, he is very informative. I am probably one of the highest anxiety people you will come across, and I feel comfortable and welcomed in the studio.

The shootouts are generally geared for more of a Maxium?? style theme. That obviously is so not my style, but I love to manipulate the angles and the lights to achieve a softer, feminine inspired photo. One that embraces the model and empowers her beauty, while limiting the sexual undertones.

Here are a few shots from the shootout. If you are a photographer, hobbyist or semipro, think about joining the meetup.com group. The experience is so worth it, networking, and the information acquired is top notch!

[...] The theme for this week is Inspiration, which is fantastic because I’ve been so uninspired lately it is really pathetic. I feel like I’ve pulled my camera out about as much as I scrub the floors, because I just do not “feel it” lately. I feel like every shot I have the opportunity to take is so predictable, my gorgeous daughter, a back light sunflare of my kids playing, my cat… you get the point. I decided I needed a challenge, I signed up to go to a local meetup where they have a little different style then I do. Boy did I find some inspiration. I had to search and step out of my comfort zone to get shots I was comfortable with, but I think I came away with knowledge and a renewed sense of inspiration. Enjoy the shots from this event.
