2018

Create In clarity

We're barely 3 months into the year, and, it's already become clear to me that 2018 is a year of focus for Glass Avenue Photography.

This year I will simplify my pricing structure across types of portrait sessions. To offer the best possible value.
I will focus on shooting far more weddings. Eventually I want to shoot weddings full time and it's time I start focusing on my wedding portfolio.
I will do at least 1, soley creative project per month. Creativity has the unique ability to force you to learn and master techniques in order to achieve your vision.

And of course I want to leave room for growth. Who knows what the future holds? This time next year I could end up photographing babies (Let's hope not).

The Best You by Stephen Hannibal-Lockley

I don't alway advertise all the types of photography that I do. Some markets are more fun than others, some are more profitable, but, in general photography has two main uses that these various labels fall under.

First there is Personal Photography, things such as family portraits, boudoir, weddings, engagements, 1st Birthday etc.
The type of images created for these sessions hold little value to anyone not directly involved with the session.
They are created to preserve a memory, continue a legacy, or to hold a moment in time.

Inversely there is Commercial Photography, which ecompasses the likes of real estate, business headshots, fashion, glamour, and the list goes on and on.
The general idea is that commercial photography is to help sell a product or idea. 

To further illustrate.
Families for instance typically want the same types of photos, sunny, warm, with everyone appearing to love each other. 
While real estate agents want a half body or headshot that says friendly, yet powerful.
While many of the elements for creating these types of images are the same the intended use is vastly different.

But when it's all said and done I love portraiture.
Maybe more so than any other photographic form, no matter the application, whether personal or professional I enjoy showing someone at their best.
