More Tidbits

Hot question:

​

How do you find locations for your clients?​

​

My answer:

​

My process is very collaborative with my clients. We normally throw ideas out for locations. When we agree on a location, we go and explore that area. I ask them if they see anything, lemme know! The more you limit and restrict yourself, the more you will miss out on cool backgrounds and areas. Also, by being collaborative—I want to empower them to be creative and have fun during their photoshoot.
