As you probably already know, I'm Jill. This is me and my cute family.
I own a portrait studio, Sweet Confections Photography. I specialize in newborns but I really do a little of everything. You can see my work at my website, my blog, or my facebook.
I am a self taught photographer and I am in no way going to claim I know everything, but I've managed to build a successful business and I want to share some of that knowledge with fellow photographers and aspiring photographers. My goal is to save other aspiring photographers some of the blood, sweat, and tears that I put in over the years.
As you can probably see from my work, I love props. I have a somewhat whimsical style. I also love photojournalistic shots, particularly with families. I love capturing that emotion, and even better, I love seeing my clients' reactions when they see those photos!
Okay here are my plans for this blog:
- digital design freebies
- posing tips
- technical stuff
- studio lighting set-ups
- finding the light when shooting outdoors
- session tips
- marketing and sales tips
- post-processing tutorials
- prop and action reviews and giveaways
- weekly photo contests
- guest photographer interviews
-question and answer
and so much more. . .
So here's your chance. . . Got photography questions? Email them to me at frameworthyshot@gmail.com. I will not have time to reply to each email individually but once I week I will choose one email to answer in detail in a blog post. So gather your questions and send them my way.
Thanks for supporting me in my new endeavor. I hope some of you will be active participators! Let's have fun!
I can't wait to see all that you will be sharing with us! I went all out and bought a really good camera and am trying to figure out how to use it.
