Photo Sessions For Charity Donations

Though we all love to capture happy moments on camera, there are often times that we should capture those difficult moments as well. Through struggles of illness such as cancer, end of life times with elderly loved ones or major deformities that are debilitating and heart wrenching, we should capture the life of those people. We should be embracing the bald heads, the pale or flawed skin, the love that surrounds them and the drive to survive that often spills from their souls. If you have a difficult time or special person that you would like captured on camera, please email me with the diagnosis, an idea of when you would like to schedule the shoot and how many people will be in the photos. All session fees will be waived and 25% of the purchased prints will be donated to the charity of your choice.

Please email me at kristylou073@hotmail.com with your information. Thank you!

Valentine's Day

My amazing Valentine and I escaped the kids, jobs and house for 4 days and traveled to San Jose, Napa and San Francisco. We were on a bus in the middle of San Fran and I eyed this man who was fascinating to me. I took one picture and it captures so much.

Love is in everyone from my silly husband and I eating ridiculously sized sundaes at Ghiradelli's to this sweet man who is probably older than my parents and still showed the whole city that he had a special sweetheart on this day. Enjoy creating your own ideas of this man and where he was going, what he'd been doing and what his Valentine would say to him.

This is MY Valentine! Handsome, huh?

Wedding Photos

Wedding photography, the way I do it, isn't necessarily typical photography. I want a few of the husband and wife in a more intimate setting. After all, this IS about the two of them. Incorporating family is equally important, especially when family and friends visit from far away. It's vital to talk to your photographer about what YOU expect and want caught on film. I am always open to new suggestion, ideas that you've seen or something off the wall. Intimate photography is my favorite, whether it's engagement photos, boudoir photos or couples time during a wedding or commitment ceremony.

Prepping For a Shoot

Preparation is important. The best shoots are ones where you are rested and fresh. Haircuts should be a couple of weeks old so that you are used to styling a new look. For women, fingernails should be painted in a neutral color that doesn’t detract from clothing or posing.

A relaxed environment is essential to a good photo session. Some people like to bring a family member or trusted friend along for support. Bring anything that makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Some photographers will encourage you to bring your favorite music to a shoot.

Multiple clothing changes show your versatility. Consider simple clothing for close up head shots. Solid colors or even bare shoulders are fantastic options. For full-length shots, try to vary your look. Consider evening wear, business attire, casual outfits and swimsuits if you are comfortable. Try to bring some clothes that are classic and simple in addition to outfits that reflect current fashion trends. Simple jewelry is preferred. Here are some photo types that we can do:

Beauty: Close ups of full face, head and shoulders. These photos should be done with fresh, well applied make-up and some retouching. This is what you typically see in magazines, especially hair mags. When in this kind of photo shoot bring along a loaded makeup bag.

Swimsuit: We can shoot swimsuit photos, weather permitting, at the beach, poolside or at your choice of Southern California locations.

Fashion: Fashion photography is used by designers in advertising. For this type of photo, think of current fashion trends or looks that capture a particular theme, such as my "Rocker Boys" look. Clean, solid colors are best. Avoid loud prints or patterns.

Editorial: In editorial photos, we are more edgy and creative. This is where imagination really comes into play, so choose clothing and accessories that show your versatility and personal style. This type of photography also uses one aspect, such as hands or feet or a book to help tell a story.

Lots of these types of settings overlap and you often feel more comfortable the longer you shoot. When you see a photo of someone or something that catches your eye, take it to your shoot and see if the photographer can replicate the idea or setting.
