Plotting. Hope everyone is having a great Saturday! *also if you look at my grid feed, it's pretty much what the shoot looked like. Lynette sitting in the middle of a whirlwind of airplane noises and guns firing. Occasionally a child emerges from the chaos.

Love this portrait of Lynette, and this will forever be my favorite way of photographing people. Dead simple backdrop, Interesting light, and a subject.

I like to think of myself as "the kid whisperer".

Occasionally I photograph some exteriors, like this one in Chicago earlier this week. Let me tell you, it's no joke to get the perfect time when your camera can be 20' in the air, the weather is good, the light is right, and there are no cars parked and that time was 6:47am on Tuesday. 2 min later, the sun popped over a building and our shot was gone, but by then, it didn't matter. Love when things come together well.

Super handy to have a test model when I need to try out lights. Especially when I can clone out a few spots of clay and post a virtually #sooc shot :). This girl has been making me look good for 4 years now.

Now that all of the hashtag heros have scrolled by 😉. Aesthetic is kind of like religion or money. Nobody forms an opinion about how much you have until they see how you treat people with less. #feeddeconstruct #mediocrephoto

Feed deconstruction time! I think everyone in the creative industries (and business in general) worries about how to gain relevance and how to stay relevant. This is especially true in an environment where the bar of entry has been lowered to anyone with a spare grand and a 💻. If you ever feel cocky, start searching out someone younger than you with nothing to lose that wants to take your job. They exist. In giant numbers. They know the current trends. They have hip friends. Well, I can't tell you how to do it, but I can tell you how I approach it. 1. Before anything else, I just say "I have enough". Nothing kills genuine growth like defensive moves from a position of weakness. Make decisions from a place of generosity and strength. 2. Invest in the ability to be great. Spend the energy on the tool, education, or skill you need. The bar isn't as low if you consistently raise it. Do not coast, and do not be sastisfied with your current abilities. 3. Don't waste your energy fighting current trends. Weigh them all carefully and move to the ones that allow you to communicate with people, but also allow you to.... 4. Tell the truth. You have to understand that feeling when you are laying exactly who you are on the table. You have to know what it feels like when somebody else trusts you to tell the truth about them. This is the hardest and most weighty responsibility. If you understand that, the investments into gear, systems, skills, and relationships makes perfect sense. You have been given a task that requires your entire attention, and when you give that attention, the results speak for themselves.
