That's the secret... everyone is photogenic! You just haven't worked with a photographer who was dedicated to finding all your best angles.
My superpower is helping everyday people look incredible on-camera. I'll provide expert guidance on poses & facial expressions to ensure your photos look natural & candid.
Want proof? Check out my Stranger Portrait series on Instagram. I surprise random strangers with a 5-minute photoshoot and give them photos they love.
That's just a preview of what you'll get when working with me. But instead of 5 minutes, we'll spend 2 hours together finding all your best angles.
