Are you ready for your close up?
In today’s world of Instagramming, Tweeting, Pinning, Tumbling, Face-booking, and every other app out there, we understand the importance of taking a good photo and looking your best in a photo. I am sure we have all had that cringe-worthy moment when we receive a notification that we have been tagged in someone’s photo only to look and see the sheer horror of ourselves in the most unflattering angle, lighting, whatever the case may be, being spread all over the world wide web. It is horrendous!
In our line of work planning weddings, corporate events, and well anything worth celebrating it is very rare not to have a camera nearby and we love being able to capture intricate details and moments at every event we coordinate. It is a very important part of our growth as planners to document different aspects, as well as to showcase our amazing work that our blood (mostly Laurie’s), sweat, and sometimes tears go into.
It doesn’t really matter where you go today, someone will be there snapping some sort of photograph. Get ahead of the game and get your go-to pose ready now so that way you will never again be captured with a triple chin, or any unpleasantness the untrained photo pose can create.

Oh how I need these tips – I usually run from cameras, lol. Angles and lighting make a very big difference. Oh what a difference the camera captures when you use tips that work best for you.
