HOW ARE THESE PORTRAITS MADE?
If you are here, it means you are looking for more information about my work. You already know that my portrait photographies are a result of a creative and unique photoshoot, with images that are truly art. But how do we get to that?
1. WE CONNECT
I love listening to people's ideas of a photoshoot. Some want to document the joy, the journey, the pain, or the milestones of their life and I believe all of this needs to be witnessed.
When you fill out the form on my contact page, I want to hear what it is about and WHY it needs to exist for you. Then we work on HOW.
2. WE COLLABORATE
Once hop on a virtual call and get to know each other a bit better, we will work closely in the following days to create a visual direction for your photo session. It is not required that you should be an artistic person at all. That's what I'm here for.
I'll ask you some questions and as long as you are honest with me and yourself, the outcome will be images that deeply resonates with your individuality.
3. we HAVE A GOOD TIME TOGETHER
Leaving all technicalities behind, such as considering location, outfits (I have a "Guide on What to Wear" to help out), time and date, we want to make sure we will have a good time together.
It's okay to be nervous at first. To be honest every session makes me a bit nervous, but at some point we will be so in sync the this feeling goes away, be it with cheering together over a very nice click or a crazy random thing we both have in common.
KIND WORDS
Jaqueline provides a truly unique experience by getting to know you, your lifestyle, wants and desires thus she is able to flush out the most passionate moments and bring the best out of you and the photoshoot. I enjoyed doing natural things like walking, not merely standing and looking into the camera. She provided the perfect balance of a loose structure and spontaneity....
YOU SHOULD DECIDE how YOUR MEMORIES ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE.
A photoshoot should be however you want it to be, as long as it's true to yourself.
If you're not sure where to start, no worries. Let's keep it simple: think about what makes you happy, and we'll take it from there.
See, when I'm behind the lens, enjoyment is non-negotiable. I want the experience to be a blast for you too—as a matter of fact this is my top priority. Sure, creating amazing images is a close second, but what's the point if you're either bored out of your mind or teetering on the edge of an anxious episode?
Having your pictures taken doesn't come naturally for everyone, surprising (or not) I don't like people taking pictures of me, I feel awkward. Mostly because they want me to pose or behave a certain way that doesn't make me very comfortable. I wish that images were taken in a more spontaneous way, so it's the closest thing to reflect my true self, when I'm not aware.
Of course you will be aware of me during our session, haha but I will make sure that having your pictures taken has become a secondary thought by then, after all, we will be comfortable in the presence of one another.
