Where I live, it was hard to find photographers other than friends; rather quality photographers that have made the art of capturing life their career. I did my research to scout local photographers to work with and have great material for my portfolio worthy enough for agency's eyes.
Bird in Hand was one of the names that came up.
What drew me to them? Of course, their online portfolio. It wasn't just the generic pictures one would think. Elizabeth and Kenneth grasp a more artistic edge and understanding of this art form. Just from one picture, I could see a glimpse of their mind's eye and see a brilliance I have not encountered.
This husband and wife tag team took the time needed to assure that I had all the different looks I wanted. There was no time or wardrobe limit which proved to me these people take what they do seriously and are willing to give me versatility. Pre-shoot, Elizabeth talked to me like a human being and not just another job by getting to know me with a fun Q&A. With my answers, Elizabeth and her husband, Kenneth, compiled ideas and locations to shoot along with my interests. These two do their homework and knowing this blew me away, which is why I trust them and I always come back. They supplied amazing props and took me along to fabulous places around the city of Augusta that I never knew were there;
The process of the shoot was so exciting. Elizabeth had one camera and Kenneth had the other. It's almost like paparazzi, but these two only get the good shots. It did not even seem like a job, but an adventure with friends.
