Wildlife; the more extreme the better.
I am a Professional Portrait Photographer
I was very new to photography, a hobbyist you could say. I was shooting with a low end DSLR camera on auto.
I wanted more out my photos but felt limited by not knowing how to shoot in manual mode or understand all the functions on the camera itself.
James was able to take me from auto shooting to manual mode in the digital 1 class alone. Feeling more confident I attended the Night photography class where he taught techniques that lend to more of the creative side of photography, which I Loved! And without taking the private Photoshop workshop I would have most likely gotten frustrated and given up using the extensive program.
Learning about ISO, Aperture and Shutter Speed and how they work together gave me full control over my images. As an artist at heart this made Photography my new art form and maybe my new favorite.
I absolutely adore photographing children as they have such a contagious zest for life. How can you resist capturing real unconstrained smiles and bright shiny eyes.
Throw one of those little cuties in a golden hour back lit field… swoon. haha!
Thanks to a recommendation from James I am the proud owner of a Nikon D610 body. I have a variety of lens but favor my Sigma 85mm 1.4
Thank you for all your help in the progress of my photography knowledge and skill.
