Back in 2016, I decided to give photography a whirl after years of burying my creativity and getting burnt out by my corporate job. After all this time I truly believe I made the right choice and have never looked back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What kind of photography do I do?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The quick answer &#8211; Portraits!<br>I\u2019ve tried all types of photography. Weddings, babies, real estate&#8230;you name it. In the last few years, I narrowed my photography focus to portraits. More specifically:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beauty portraits &#8211; beautiful contemporary portraits of women, high school seniors, and creative beauty portraits<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Branding photos &#8211; Professional photos for marketing purposes, ranging from headshots to lifestyle product photography<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boudoir photography &#8211; Empowering photos of women with the idea that we are all beautiful no matter our shape, size, age, or experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What gets me excited about photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Magazines-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-196\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Magazines-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Magazines-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Magazines-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Magazines-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Magazines-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The people, the process, the reactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I get to meet amazing people every day. People that have the same self-doubts that I do. People that think they aren\u2019t \u201cphotogenic\u201d. Hint &#8211; that\u2019s not a real thing. I get to hear stories that move me. I get to influence people\u2019s attitudes towards themselves. I get to make photography a little less painful, and maybe even a little enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photography allows me to be creative. I can pull an idea or some kind of inspiration into reality. It\u2019s like solving a puzzle, telling a story, and being an artist all rolled into one. There\u2019s no limit. And inspiration can come from anywhere. It allows me to embrace the dreamer side of me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And at the end of the day. I get to see the reaction of the person that was brave enough to get in front of the camera. Like pulling back a curtain to reveal their prize. And while others are being brave in front of the camera, every photograph I put out there requires a bit of bravery from me. Because the work I put out there comes from my vision. So it\u2019s a bit personal for me too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Morrisville studio space<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2021_Wall-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2021_Wall-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2021_Wall-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2021_Wall-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2021_Wall-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/brookestraiton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2021_Wall-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In July of 2021, I started telling people how I wanted a new studio space. I wanted something that inspired me to create and inspired others to trust in that creative process. The next thing I knew, my friend messaged me with a link to a listing for the perfect space. I moved in one month later. It was a bit of a gamble to take on the larger space, but it was also a labor of love. I\u2019m slowly converting every corner to be worthy of a photo. The energy is so much better here, and my work is really letting that show. I encourage everyone to stop by during their consultation, just to see the possibilities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the one thing I want you to know<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love being a photographer. I truly love what I do. Someone once asked me if I would choose to do this even if I never made any money. The answer is yes. I\u2019m truly blessed to have found what I was put here to do. I hope to share that with others for many years to come. Because it does make a difference in your life. I create a legacy for your family. Your image will exist long after you are gone. And wouldn\u2019t you rather that legacy be something amazing?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m a photographer in Morrisville, Bucks County, PA that specializes in portrait photography.
