You know those photos where the subject is in focus and the background looks like it’s whizzing by? Think of a photo of a biker commuting to work down a city street where the buildings are blurred behind the subject. I recently posted an image like this on IG that got quite a few kind comments about being about to literally feel the wind and the joy in the moment. The technique used in this situation is called panning. It’s not necessarily easy and it takes some practice, but it’s a fun and useful trick to have in your arsenal.
As soon as Abby contacted me with information about her upcoming wedding, I knew we were a great fit. She was laid back, understood my style and approach, and was really not into spending much time with posey-posey shots. She actually Googled “Documentary Photographer in Columbus, Ohio” to find me. YES!!!
When Amy and Gaitlyn contacted me about photographing part of their small wedding ceremony/pool party, I was thrilled and completely flattered. Get ready to swoon. This wedding was so genuine, so touching, and so much fun. And thankfully, we were able to keep the kids (and adults) out of the pool long enough to get portraits of all of the family units together!
As a primary teacher by trade, I love being in ANY school setting. I was delighted to be invited to photograph the real-life, daily happenings at the Columbus Montessori Education Center (CMEC) on the east side of Columbus, Ohio. The goal was to provide CMEC with a library of professional images that would accurately and visually represent the school for a major rebranding endeavor, for both the launch and ongoing publication/media needs.
