Its been over a year since my last in-person photo shoot. I’m dying. But earlier in the year, I did two photo shoots with my friends. I wanted to try and get back into my groove. I haven’t done anything in so long, I felt as if I lost it. I don’t think I have.

In February, I did a virtual shoot with my homegirl Bleu (formally @sistah_don). They moved away in 2019 so its been a minuet since we’ve done a shoot together. This was as close to doing an in-person shoot as we’re gonna get at the moment, and it still worked out.

Due to the pandemic, a lot of photographers were testing the waters with virtual shoots. I watched a few photographers give advice on how to navigate a virtual shoot, then did a few on my own. This is my favorite of the three that I did (other shoots were for a private client). I would do this for out of state clients only, I still prefer to be in-person. 6/10 would recommend.

In March, I did a very random shoot with my other friend Sam. I bought this mask off the Wish app (not an ad) and been dying to do a shoot with it. I knew Sam was the only person who could really carry this mask, she was the only one who was actually excited about wearing it.

I do wish I showed off the mask more. I was going for more of an overall feel with this shoot, rather then make it all about the mask. I also wanted to use smoke bombs.

In the next few weeks, I will post info for booking sessions. I will be taking a handful of people for now, just get get me back on. I can not wait to get back out here.

Let me know what y’all think of these mini shoots. Please be nice lol

Love y’all
