I love seeing what goes on behind the scenes. My husband always jokes with me when I ask to see the bloopers after I finish movies (even and most especially after scary movies- hey, I need to lighten the mood!) and we like to watch how movies and TV shows are made and put together. It probably comes from my love of being on and back stage. So here is a peek behind the emiB scene. I thought I’d show off some of my favorite emiB instagrams. If you want to stay updated with me and my work, follow me on instagram or search for #emiBphotography!
Mmmm… I always love a good cup of coffee. Especially if it’s before or after a session. My lovely camera bag is accompanying the holiday Starbucks cup on the left (those will be coming back sooner than I’ll be ready for!). I love my personally ’emiB’ marked cup in the center. I wish this could happen every time. Fun Fact: It was actually marked by my friend, former co-worker and client, Jo Beth! One of the fabulous birthday gifts I received this year was my bee cup on the right!
Here are a few of my favorite set ups. Even just looking at the small differences between one of my first sessions ever [on the left] and my latest session [on the right], I can see how much I have grown as a photographer. The fact that I love each session’s outcome more and more tells me I’m going in the right direction!
I do all of my own marketing and graphic design, so I like to show off when my ideas come together and come to life. The only down side (if you can call even it that), is that I’m changing things all the time. The CD label design as already changed. I have even been thinking of other designs for later. Maybe I’ll have a few and back and fourth. You’ll just need to keep booking to see them all!
Sometimes I’m the one getting caught on camera. That last one was risky! But it worked out really well. It’s the crazy things that usually make a great image. Shout out to Sassy Straps for my beautiful camera wrist strap in the print Teal The End.
I absolutely LOVE seeing my clients post their favorite shots and what they did with their images.
This was the debut shot of my lovely 50mm! And then there’s my view while I’m editing (my sweet little Jesse sitting on my lap) and a shot of the back of my camera as I was going through shots I’d taken that day. This one was from Jo Beth’s ‘Getting Ready’ session before she walked down the aisle! (There’s another beloved coffee cup shot).
I hope you guys liked going behind the scenes! I have grand plans for emiB. It’s tough to keep positive sometimes in this business, especially when your time and hard work gets taken advantage of, but it means the world to me how much love and support I feel from all of you. I’m so lucky to be able to have such an amazing job.
My Music: Sara Bareilles’ new album is amazing, my favorites are Brave and I Choose You. Very uplifting and upbeat.
My Coffee: GUYS. Cold Stone ice cream creamer is THE bomb. I tried the ‘Hot For Cookie’ flavor and it is so yummy.
leave some love,
