For this shoot, I recruited my husband to help me out taking the photos that I am in. I tend to do self portraits most of the time, but I was able to direct him with where to position the camera, the angles I wanted, and how I wanted the overall shot to look. We were on the streets in Downtown Lansing, which I LOVE taking city portraits. They are so fun and the atmosphere is great, tons of backdrop opportunities!
For the product shots that I am not in, I did take the camera over and shoot those myself. I have so much fun creating this kind of content for brands. I naturally gravitate towards shoes and style so it was a very easy concept to come up with.
At the end of shooting the two looks, I decided to also do a quick video. As we all know, video performs better on social media nowadays (although I don’t always pay attention to that, I love photos). It’s super easy to just flip the switch and capture a few clips to put together a quick lifestyle video. I try to always incorporate that when I am creating on my own.
