So, we have all heard of Deja Vu, but only some have truly felt it. What if I told you there was another phenomenon that every single one of you have felt: Des Vu. It's the feeling of knowing that a moment will become a memory. It's having nostalgia for the present. This is what you want your photos to reflect. This feeling. As time goes on, details fade from memory but your photos will persist. They are your journal, your time machine, your legacy. Let's give them them a home.
I like my couples like I like my curry: a little sweet and a whole lotta spicy!
"Families are a glimpse into the past and a glance at the future: simultaneously existing in the glimmer of the present."
If you've made it here and are actually reading this, then you are already in step one! At this point, we're in a one sided conversation though where you are learning about me and my work and approach and hopefully falling in love with Foxybird. But now it's my turn to fall in love with YOU! Inquire, give me the dirty deetz and lets build a connection. We'll hop on a call, vibe out, and start daydreaming about the art we'll create together.
Once we've connected on a shared vision, it's time to commit! We will knock out the logistics, get down to the nitty gritty, and lock in with each other! This is truly where the magic happens. During this phase I am continuing to learn about you and your partner and integrating your ideals, your relationship, and your aesthetic into the experience. I am become your creative conduit-- bringing your love from abstract to tangible.
By now, we're long lost besties. When I arrive at the session, it feels like I'm someone you've known forever with whom you can breathe and be your fully authentic self. I'm the friend who you can laugh, cry, flirt, even get a little spicyyyy in front of because you know in your bones that I value your love and deeply understand your connection.
After the session, I know anticipation for the photos is high. I always deliver a few sneaks to satisfy the craving but then get to work on creating a gallery that is an artful representation of your connection. When I deliver your gallery, I want to simultaneously invoke nostalgia for the moments past and a longing for those to come. These are more than just photos to me, they're fleeting moments eternally preserved and destined to be cherished for generations to come.
There are truly no words for how amazing Jordan is to work with. I had seen some of her photos on local facebook groups and was just in awe of her work. When we got engaged I knew I wanted her as our photographer but wasn't sure it would be able to happen - not only was our wedding under two months away, it was also the day after Thanksgiving! With recent health troubles I felt like I didn't see "me" anymore and I was so afraid that on one of the most photographed days of my life I would see all of those insecurities in my photos. Looking at our finished album I now know that was so silly with Jordan as our photographer. So many happy tears were shed when I got to see the "me" my husband sees in me. I want to pinch myself at how beautiful our day was and will forever be because of Jo's talent, creativity, and vision. I can't wait to have more sessions with her for many years to come.
Jo is absolutely incredible! From the first time we met her we vibed super hard with her which is an important characteristic of your photographer. She makes the shoot so much fun and settles any nerves you might have. Oh and the pictures? Breathtaking. I had no idea the possible quality of professional pictures and Jo managed to exceed that. I will be using her and only her for all of my photography needs; forever.
Okay, we're totally vibing right? Let's take this thing to the next level. Reach out to me to get the ball rolling.
