I love my Girls Day Out Shutterbag, but find it heavy for everyday use (& I only have 1 camera body!!). I love having my dslr with me, but might change to my smaller, lighter mirrorless. Do you truly carry your bag as an every day purse? If so, do you use the shorter handles or the longer shoulder strap?ReplyCancel
when i first started taking on newborn clients, i knew that i wanted to take the lifestyle approach. i love the way that lifestyle newborn sessions are honest, natural, and incorporate the brand new parents into the photographs. while i feel like posed newborn photography is beautiful, it is simply not for me and my…

Love your tips! I always bring a step stool since I am 5’1″ and like to get somewhat “above” shots for clients. They are the most flattering. I probably would have completely forgotten to take detailed photos of the nursery if you hadn’t said something. I get so obsessed with baby and parents that I sometimes forget where I am. Thanks again!ReplyCancel

Take your macro lens too. You can really fill the frame with tiny fingers and toes. Go back further to fill the frame with a beautiful portrait of the baby, and it makes it really easy to leave anything distracting out of the frame. Some of the best photos I took of my newborn were with my macro lens.ReplyCancel

So over the in studio posed newborn sessions and looking for something different. Your blog is a breath of fresh air. I noticed that your clients all have beautiful homes. Have you come across clients homes that you want to run out of? If so, what do you do (other than make the best of it)?ReplyCancel

Ha ha, to be honest I have been pretty lucky and haven’t had a situation that I couldn’t make the best of. In some homes, I definitely focus more around windows for better light or have to get creative with compositions in order to remove distractions from the frame, but never felt like I wanted to run out of the house. ha ha.ReplyCancel

even though i am a lifestyle photographer, i definitely pose my clients into flattering and balanced positions that i know will photograph well. once i have them into position, i then stand back and let them do their thing! for me and my photography style, i find that this is the perfect balance between creating…
lisa - great tip about tracking the stats. not something i’ve thought about. I do miss your daily posts, but I love the bump-dates 😉 congrats!
{beth} a-dilly - tracking your stats can be so insightful! i am back to posting daily again…well, at least until this little one arrives!
Tracey - Perfect timing!! I just stared my 365, using your prompts to inspire me! I did (most) of a 365 year before last; I desperately wanted to be part of a community, but it didn’t work out as I had hoped. I found you and I am inspired to try again! I saw how you use IG and how rich it can be – wow! it is much simpler than doing a blog (I used your IG post flow), and the folks I’ve met so far are just wonderful and talented. Thanks so much for sharing! I am so excited for you on your new family adventure!
{beth} a-dilly - you are so very welcome and i am happy that you are joining us in the challenge! i am even happier that you are enjoying our community, and i am most proud that #thebethadillychallenge community is so kind and supportive! best of luck with your 365! you are going to rock it this year!
Suzanne - glad to see you posting more again. i missed seeing your light, airy photos. can’t wait to see pics of the little one once he/she arrives 🙂
{beth} a-dilly - thanks, Suzanne!

Jules Corry - There are a lot of nice ways to market your product. But the method that i use and it works 100% of the time is to create a social media account for the product and then buy a couple of followers to start off and other people will start following the account, leading to more sales for whatever it is I’m marketing. There are a couple of website out there that sells instagram and twitter followers. http://www.fansboost.net is the one i usually use but you can google for other websites.
