This session is one I will forever think about and love! Photographing empowering women and finding connection and other people you have similarities to just feels so good.Kate and Stacie are old friends who met up for a conference in Provo where they would see the each other for the first time in three years. Kate, who is from Canada, surprised her friend Stacy with a branding shoot with me! In my opinion it was the ultimate gift to give another girl boss!
One of my favorite things about photography is the community. So these two found me on a photographer‘s group on Facebook. Kate said she love my style and my portfolio and decided to go with me. I was so flattered and also so excited to be able to do their session and capture their friendship also!
When I think back to why I loved this so much I realized, this was an ideal shoot for me because we got to have fun, dress up, and make these women feel beautiful and powerful. Kate and Stacie’s personalities were so fun and we just laughed and had a blast the whole time. It is so important to me to help women see their beauty and be a part of that process of them growing and developing!!!
The entire shoot was so so fun, but my favorite part of the shoot was getting to know them. We went deep and talked about religion and how we came to this place in our lives at this moment. Through these conversations I know I will always care about these women. It was so empowering to find similarities to other women when the world can often feel isolating.
One of the services I love to offer is helping all of my clients with outfits, texting back-and-forth options, and make up and hair suggestions. Stacie hired an amazing team for her hair and make up. I think that is always worth it because they know how to make sure it’s enough for the shoot. You want to make sure you have a decent amount of makeup and that your hair will hold for the entire shoot. This is something I’m also always able to help with.
Since Kate and Stacie were only going to be here for the weekend conference, we wanted to fit in as many of the beautiful murals in Provo as we could. The great thing about downtown Provo is that it is very small. Because we managed our time wisely we were able to hit four different locations in two hours rather than the usual two locations. It was so worth it and I’m glad we got everything that they wanted for their shoot.
Modere Collagen was the company they both sell for.
