At Keylight Photography your portraits are done with a contemporary yet natural style; the result is a unique and engaging portrait. That engaging quality is developed through a creative relationship with your photographer.
Your portrait session includes a Get to Know You Session, where you meet with Ashley and discuss what you visualize for your portraits before your portrait session. This gives you a chance to get to know Ashley and allows you to feel more at ease in front of the camera. Taking the time to meet and develop a creative relationship is the key to creating a beautiful and unique portrait that brings out your personality.
What do we wear?
Simple and comfortable! By staying with the basics for your clothing selections the focus is on you and not what you are wearing. Solid colors are best. Try to avoid logos, lettering or distracting designs. Choose similar clothing for everyone such as jeans and a white t-shirt or everyone in black and white makes your portrait come together.
What is the best location for our portraits?
Anywhere that is special to you. Your home, yard, your favorite park, the beach; where ever you enjoy spending time. Keylight Photography also offers a complete professional portrait studio.
I don’t want a traditional portrait?
Great! Keylight specializes in a blend of photo journalistic style and fine art portraiture. No more “say cheese” photographs. Keylight works hard to create a fun and easy going atmosphere where your portraits are natural not overly posed and stiff.
I’m not photogenic?
Don’t worry, it’s only a matter of feeling comfortable in front of the camera. The Get to Know You Session included with every portrait session, helps you get to know Ashley and gives you the chance to voice your apprehensions, what’s important to you, your likes and dislikes, and share your vision. Thus, on the day of your session you can feel more relaxed knowing Keylight is looking out for your vision.
What if it rains?
No problem, Keylight Photography offers a complete professional portrait studio, we can always move indoors. If you have your heart set on an outdoor session, we can always reschedule, or just have some fun with a session in the rain. Keylight will provide the umbrellas!
How do I schedule a Get to Know you Session?
Just call or email. The get to know you session is usually 20-30 minutes (in person or over the phone). We discuss all the details of your session; the location, the time and date, your vision for your portrait, what you will wear, etc. We also discuss where you will be displaying your portraits, as it plays an important role in how Keylight composes your portrait as well as the size of the final image.
