Gina is a photographer based in Minnesota who came to visit us in Seattle for her six hour mentor session with us. We covered the gamut with Gina. She came LOADED with questions and a big open heart ready to learn. That is the best way to come. We started out the day with a mini-shoot of Gina in her hotel room and the wonderful Miss Tiffany Lowry did Gina's hair and make up for her.
Gina knows how to make my heart go pitter patter :), she came in head to toe Anthropologie, those who know me realize I have a slight obsession with that place. I look forward to the Anthro catalogue showing up on my door every season because not only do I love the clothing, but the photography and the production that goes into the shoots in the catalogue are simply brilliant. I got mine the other day and spent a good 45 minutes thumbing through it, leaving with a heart full of inspiration :)
During Gina's time with us we chatted about style, passion, risks, heart, processing, inspiration, posing, artistic voice, shooting in backlit situations, confidence, branding and did a full portfolio review. The six hour day was totally packed and we had a blast! It is so fun for us to be able to teach.... to pass on knowledge, encouragement and wisdom to someone who was where we were just a few years back. Chris and I always walk away full. So enjoy a bit of Gina today...
Location: Ace Hotel, Seattle
Hair/makeup: Tiffany Lowry
