What is Lifestyle photography?
In lifestyle photography, you try to capture the authenticity of life as it is.
Instead of being directed to pose, you will be asked to do a movement or gesture — skipping, hugging your loved one, or maybe even dancing together.
Through movement we create genuine smiles, happiness and laughter. The authenticity of the smiles captured is the simple reason why I adore lifestyle photography.
You may feel silly doing some of the movements or gestures but that’s okay! Your laughter will create photos filled with authentic smiles for you to cherish for years to come.
Lifestyle photography is merely a shooting style, not a genre of photography. Therefor, it can be incorporated into any session — maternity, portrait, family or even elopements.
Portrait
While lifestyle is my heart & soul, I also appreciate the simplicity and tradition of portrait photography.
Traditional portrait photography is all about capturing the emotion and expression of the subject. This classic style of photography involves the subject looking directly at the camera and is often taken against a background. These photos are usually focused on the head and shoulders of the subject rather than the whole body.
This genre of photography is perfect for someone who just appreciates a more classic, posed style.
Portrait photography is widely versatile and can be used in family session, maternity, senior session etc... Portraits are also perfect for professional use — such as business cards and advertising.
