As a female Portrait Photographer one of the most common questions I am asked by my clients before a lifestyle and branding portrait photo session is: “do I need a makeup artist?” or “how much make up is recommended?” and “if I don't normally wear much make up, should I put some on for the photo shoot?”
My answer is always the same and super simple:…

As a photographer, I am always looking fore the best light for my outdoor, inspired by nature portrait photo session with inspiring and creative women.
This “golden hour” has been my obsession lately, when the sun is quite low in the sky and you can feel the last touches of its warmth on your skin.
And just a few minutes before the sunset, the sky is full of warm shades of orange, dancing with fiery red and intense pink. By catching the perfect moment, we can turn this magical view into a piece of art, where your beauty is fully supported by delicious, soft and flattering light.

Yay, location, Location, LOCATION!
One of my favourite aspects of being a professional portrait photographer is the chance to leave the inside of four walls behind…
and explore…

It is all driven by the fact that YOU are so unique – the location of the photo session should reflect YOU, be just like you, just right, matching your personality, extract the essence of your passion and business purpose.

During my phone consultations, I often hear women admit that they feel shy and uncomfortable in front of the camera. For them, a professional portrait photo shoot can be seen as a challenging and scary thing to do.
While I believe in the benefits and power of going out of our comfort zone, I also think that a photo session should be a fun, unique and exciting experience and an opportunity for a woman to shine, get in touch with herself and express who she is in the most authentic way.

Grounded, relaxed, joyful and free. This is how taking photos in natural environments makes me feel. And I know that my clients feel the same way because all these qualities are reflected on their pictures. I find great inspiration in nature and thrive creatively as I play with the light, the sun, the elements, shapes of the trees and colours of flowers and leaves.

“(…) but I’m not photogenic…” – I hear it a lot! Believe me, it doesn’t surprise me! Like many of you, I also get shy in front of the camera – and yes, a portrait photographer is saying it herself!

I simply adore Autumn!
It’s one of the best time of the year for those beautiful and colorful OUTDOOR PORTRAIT SESSIONS!

I’ve spent most of past weeks shooting multiple lifestyle family outdoor portraits (you HAVE to check my other blog posts ) as well as portraits of individuals among the greens, yellows and reds.
