"Mini" Mini Family Photo Shoot

As many of you guys know, I have taken a step back from doing so many family portraits to focus my business on wedding, engagement, and couple clientele.  This is not to say that I dislike photographing families, kids, etc.  I absolutely LOVE photographing families.  It's just not something that I can devote as much time to now that my business has begun changing.  With that being said, this weekend, I got the opportunity to do a "Mini" mini Family Shoot: five shots to ten shots, five minutes, five or less people.  Needless to say, it was an awesome time.

Meet my NEW Creative Director!!!

I need help. I NEEDED help. I'm not afraid to admit when I need help.  The thing about being a photographer is that sometimes, when setting up beautiful landscapes, that you need vision.  You need the vision of someone who is NOT taking the pictures.  A lot of times, they can see things and think of things you would have never even considered as a photographer.  As a photographer, you get so caught up in capturing the photo, that you leave out the important part: CREATING THE PERFECT LANDSCAPE.  That's not to say that you don't consider the landscape.  It's just that sometimes, you need someone that makes this their MAIN concentration.  That is where Tori, my new creative director, came in.  I've always been told that I have an eye for the detail.  But, Tori HAS a HUGE eye for the details.  She's also very resourceful.

Enough of this gushing! Here's Tori!
