We will teach you the basics of studio lighting.

What you will Learn? During the session you can ask any questions, photograph everything for your portfolio – the floor is yours. You will sit beside me as we work through the poses… you will be there every step of the way. You will participate in posing from composite shots, floor shots, hanging and other poses you are interested in seeing. We will prep a session together, work on soothing techniques and most importantly show you how get the perfect image , all with studio lighting. We will go over full digital workflow and step by step instructions on how to achieve our soft goodness.

The business part of our mentoring will help you with marketing to build your newborn network. We will discuss how we started over from scratch; moving our photography business from one state to another, as well as establishing your baby plan and pricing.

Feature Friday: So So Creative – {Newborn Posing Workshop Mentoring}

July 29, 2011 172 comments

We are so excited to share with you our 1st Feature Friday!Come meet So So Creative

A little about them….
“We are Loran and Melanie, husband and wife photographer team, who have tried to be smart (a.k.a. – frugal, fiscally responsible or cheap if you like) about growing our photography business. That focus on frugality ultimately lead us to where we are today with SoSo Creative.
The backstory…we fell in love with this beautiful little community called Serenbe on the outskirts of Atlanta after getting married there in 2008. We quickly decided this was the place to call home and open our photography business. It’s a small community in a stunning location with lots of outdoor backdrops like barns, a farm and a wildflower meadow. Fantastic right? Who needs a studio? It turns out we did in fact need studio space because it’s hard to shoot outside in the rain or to a newborn outside. Ours was a home-based business, which was great, but we quickly ran out of space. That led to a small studio space and here we are today.

So we were smart about slowly working into a studio space but once we got the space comes we needed things like backdrops, lighting, props, etc… Like most of you we wanted to keep the work fresh and new but that gets expensive to keep investing in new props all the time. After searching all over for fun, interesting and most of all reasonably priced backdrops and not finding what we liked we decided we could do something about it. The “A Ha!” moment came when we put it together two very important facts. First we realized we have this lovely large format printer because we do fine art printing for local artists and photographers coupled with the fact that one of us has a graphic design degree. Thus, an idea was born.

We will continue to add new items every month. In addition, to our designs you can also send us your own image and we’ll print it to make you a one-of-a-kind backdrop or floordrop.

If you don’t find what you’re looking for let us know and we’ll do our best to help! Happy photographing!

Melanie and Loran”

Dylan was one handsome boy this morning. He slept the entire time until the very end and even then we managed to get some adorable shots with his two older brothers. Thanks to the Y family for choosing us as your maternity and newborn photographer.
