Finding your style 📸 It’s probably the numbe

Finding your style 📸

It’s probably the number one struggle I hear from food photographers.

❌ Shoot after shoot, it doesn’t feel like your photos are consistent or that there is even a recognizable style there.

❌ You don’t feel as if anybody would see your photos and be like “hey! I know who’s that is!”

❌ You might even feel like your photos are pretty enough but that you learned or experimented with how to shoot in someone else’s style so you don’t really feel like it’s yours.

I GET IT 🙌🏻

✅I didnt know how to use my camera 5 years ago
✅I had no recognizable style
✅Once I thought I had a style, I stuck myself in a box and felt like I could never shoot differently

But after countless hours, investing time and money every day I now have the freedom to know that whatever I shoot will inevitably come out in my own style. 🎉 I shoot in ALLL the colors of the rainbow and it always comes out like me 🙋🏻‍♀️

And this is why in my signature program, The STYLE Mastermind, with it’s combination of coaching + education, I teach you how to find your own unique style, and not how to shoot in mine.

There is *literally* no point in shooting in a style that you don’t love because the whole point of running your own creative business is to do it because you love it.

And when you love your job and it shows through your work, that’s when the clients come in. 💰 💰 💰

Over the last 3 years my program has helped over 90 (!!) students find their unique consistent style, land their highest paid contracts ever, and LEAVE THEIR JOBS! No it doesnt happen overnight, but it does happen.

SO yeah you may be scared outta your mind to take that leap and join but trust me, it may just be the best thing you do for your mindset, creativity, your business, and your style.

PS. THE STYLE MASTERMIND IS NOW OPEN FOR ENROLLMENT! 🎉💵👩🏽‍🤝‍👩🏻 We are only accepting 24 students for this round with 2 spots already taken. Tap the link in my bio to apply and level up your business!!

3 things I wish someone told me in the beginning o

3 things I wish someone told me in the beginning of my food photography career 📸:

1. Do not be afraid to use shadows! You NEED shadows in your work. They are what create dimension in a photo and what gives it the “pop of the screen” effect. Just because you like to shoot light and bright doesn’t give you an excuse not to use them either. Using shadows doesn’t = dark and moody. So please, if you feel like something is missing in your photos, maybe you need more shadows?

2. Mindset is EVERYTHING. You will have really good days and then really 💩 days too. Knowing how to navigate the ups and downs of entrepreneurship is the everlasting key to your success in the food photography world.

3. Learn about licensing and usage!!! Like get in with the nitty gritty of it. I cant tell you how much I have given away for less than what I deserve because I didn’t know enough about licensing and usage.

All three of these things are V important to me in terms of how I run my own business and what I teach to my students.

It’s some of the main reasons why and how students have been so successful. Like 10k+ months, and leaving their 💩 jobs they hate, kind of successful.

Theres a couple more hours left to get on the waitlist for my signature program The STYLE Mastermind for an early bird incentive.

One thing I constantly tell my students is to get

One thing I constantly tell my students is to get the hell out of their comfort zones- because nothing extraordinary ever comes from it.

Think about it- the things that have gotten you to where you are today, will not get you to where you want to go next. If they did, then you would already be there.

Constantly pushing yourself to the next level of your comfort will though.

Running a workshop in Tuscany and teaching in person was that for me, and it was one of the most magical weeks ever.

So grateful for all the people that traveled across the world to stay with people they never met for 5 days.

If that’s not pushing yourself, I don’t know what is!

If you’re thinking that you need help getting to the next level, then get on the waitlist for the next round of my signature program, The STYLE Mastermind.

It’s designed to help you find your unique signature style (YES YOU HAVE ONE) and to get paid well in this industry.

✨Artichokes ✨

They were allll over Rome- at the markets and next to the restaurants- all bundled up and beautiful that I couldn’t resist taking some shots.

For these I wanted to go with a light chiaroscuro effect- using the contrast between light and dark to highlight parts of an image.

I took these artichoke shots in two different areas and also edited them differently. The first to bring out more of the contrast between green and purple and the second focusing more on the green.

I cant decide which I like best- I added the raw images here too so you can see how powerful editing it, especially when you already have the finished image idea in your head!

Which do you like better?

In July 2019 while on vacation in Tuscany, I messaged @healthylittlecravings with the idea of running a food photography workshop in Italy. I was hoping she didn’t think I was crazy 🤪, or maybe she was just as crazy as me- because she said YES. Almost 3 years later, after lots of frustration, zoom calls, planning, un-planning, and planning again, it’s finally happening!

I’m proud of us for not giving up, and grateful for the students that have invested their time and money in learning with us- whether they are coming this time or not.

I won’t be posting anything on my feed bc it’s not where i want to be spending time this week, but I’ll be sharing on stories! And yes we plan on doing this again ❤️

Cupcakes. My least favorite thing to shoot- so naturally I have a BUNCH of cupcake recipes that I need to shoot over the next week or so. I find that when I find a food that I dont love shooting, I force myself to do it over and over until I am more comfortable with it.

It happened once before with cookies, and now cookies and I are BFFAE.

So get ready Mr. Cupcake- meet your new best friend 🙋🏻‍♀️
