Why hire a Professional photographer?
Everyone these days has a camera, so why would you hire a professional? Did you know that lenses alter the way things look? This can change the way the picture looks. This can be everything from making the face look flat, to narrow shoulders on men to adding on some weight. A professional knows how movements and positions affect their equipment. Some of these poses can look and feel awkward in real life but when you look at the photo after the shoot. The results are something true to life.
Whether it's for personal branding or a family shoot, A professional photographer is there to make you look your best no matter what type of day you are having. They can invoke how you felt on that day and allow you to relive these feelings time and time again. It is widely known that a picture is worth a thousand words. Its important the right words are given no matter what the occasion. We are trained in directing you to show the right body language for the occasion.
When it comes to posing what you see on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest doesn’t always work for everyone. Everyone is different as such we have to tailor the poses used in the shoot to the individual. This doesn’t mean you can’t use these for inspiration. Photographers use this as a tool for new poses and to help with creativity, but they consider poses and body features when posing clients for these poses.
Let's talk about photoshop and photo-editing a bit. While there are many examples where you can tell a picture has been photoshopped. These are creative edits. All photographers use a program similar to photoshop to edit their photos. A good photographer can edit the photo and have it look natural without changing the person or image. It is used to remove blemishes or even add makeup, remove glare from glasses, and even adjust hair on a bad hair day.
It takes years of practice and training to be a professional photographer. It is affordable, and pictures should be for life. It should be something you pass on to your kids, and they can pass on to their kids, after all its not just a photo. We are creating your legacy.
