Uniquely You.

There is a carnival trend currently influencing the way we photograph engagements, weddings, and maternity sessions. For me, a circus has little to do with the feelings surrounding getting married or having a baby. Instead, let capturing these moments be an expression of uniquely you! To the right is one great example of a fun save-the-date video by Belvedere Stories.

It's also not everyday a couple plans outfits and locations for an engagement shoot inspired by the TV show Mad Men. Seeing how others have kept true to the individual in spite of the over-saturation of a trend has inspired me to create images that are unique to each of my clients.

I thank those who currently do this. To the rest of you looking to have moments captured and those who immortalize these moments in photo or video, I challenge you to find what makes you and your clients unique. All this so you can look back and see what you were thinking and feeling at the time. And if the carnival is you, then by all means, let it fly! Need ideas? Think of those things that inspire you, the things you enjoy, the things that move you.
