Tina | Portraits

I’ve attended an amazing photography conference called SHOWIT United the past two years. I’d highly recommend it to any photographers who want to meet encouraging creatives in the industry and be inspired! My second year attending, I had the opportunity to lead a styled shoot for some of the attendees! It was such a fun experience to be able to show some of the photographers how I run my shoots. I love sharing with others photographers who are eager to learn, but I always make sure to say that I don’t necessarily do everything the “right” way… I simply do it my way. And I’m constantly figuring out more and more, what my way actually is. It’s always changing, because I’m always learning. But if anyone wants to learn with me along the way, I love to be a part of that process! :)
 
We did this whole shoot in the parking lot at Phoenix Mariott Tempe at the Buttes. Yes, we had a beautiful resort to use, but with a large group of photographers, I wanted to make sure we had plenty of room to get the photos we wanted. So used the plants surrounding the parking lot and I’m in love with how the photos turned out! It also didn’t hurt that we had a GORGEOUS and incredibly sweet model, Tina, to make these photos what they are! :)
