McKenna was such a troop, she didn't have a nap at all during the morning of the photo shoot. She was able to sleep just for a little but we did get really adorable pictures!

advancedpro: week 3-Interaction/building relationships
This week we learned about interaction and building a better relationship with our clients. I asked my lovely models (amazing sister and brother in-law) different questions that they had to answer to each other to create some fun authentic moments.
Some of the pictures might look a bit grainy due to not have enough light in the house and having my shutting at a higher speed-but I loved these pictures to much not post them!

advancedpro: Week 2-Posing
This week we learned about "exhausting poses". This is where once you get them in the pose you want, how many different looks you can get from the one pose. Here are some pictures from Nicole's Senior's pictures (you'll get to see more from her session later):

advancedpro: Week 1-Preparation
I've been enjoying myself with taking classes from Brooke Snow that I just couldn't help myself when she offered an Advanced Pro class. This week we learned how to prepare ourselves so we are not winging it when we arrive at the photo shoot. We start off by drawing up a shot list and assembling a posing guide. I found that at first it was hard for me to find people who were going to be around with Easter weekend but then realized that my in-laws have an amazing farm and that I don't have to do all my pictures of people (even though I prefer portraits). Have a shot list was so helpful cause I was able to always refer back to it and generate new ideas! I loved how the majority of them turned out but here are few:

Class Week 4: Thematic & Conceptual Shooting PLUS a Self Portrait
For the last few weeks we've been challenged by our wonderful teacher to approach our photography as "photo essays" (a series of photos that tell the story.) This week, we were told to focus on telling a story in a single image! This was way harder then what it may sound like. So I decided to tell the story of mine and my husbands life at the moment:
We are building our first house right now where we put "sweat equity" into our home before we live in it. Not only are we building out our house but we are also building 4 additional homes with our neighbors. We are required to put in 35 hours a week at minimal. We usually are very tired, worn out, and sometimes make mistakes.

And last but not least with this amazing class, we have to learn to get out from behind the camera and capture ourselves at different stages in our lives. So here I am in all my 22 year old glory; loving every minute of it (even the very tiring moments)
