Studio Work Begins

Mar

23

I misplaced my tripod attachment for my camera so getting to work with my new studio set up has been delayed much longer than I wanted to. While I was in Vegas, Clynn ordered a couple back drops and a few soft boxes for me to play with when I got back. I’m so stoked!

Today, I set up a bunch of albums and books to support my camera body and got to shooting anyway. My sister called literally the second after I snapped my first shot and volunteered to come down later today for me to really dive in. It’s not easy to be the photographer and the model. haha

But here it is. The first of 3 or so shots in the studio with a real set up!

Studio Work Begins

I can’t wait to breathe fresh life into studio work for modern photography. People have written it off to favor natural light and landscapes TOO MUCH in my opinion. Far too much.

Are we portrait photographers or landscape photographers? If you want to be both, GREAT! However…you should probably recognize that’s what you’re doing when you photograph mountains with a couple as big as ants in the corner…and start taking some landscape classes as well.

It is beautiful outside, but what are we capturing? How many details are we competing with to showcase our subject?

New studio work posting Thursday!!!

Sincerely, Jaclynn

A little family Wellman Update dump. Morning! I’ve struggled coming back in to write lately. I abandoned my last post in tears over the current state of The Studio. My camera bag was stolen about a year ago. Everything I’ve photographed in 2024 has been on rented equipment. Being abandoned with the children with zero […]

Early October I got to experience an adventurous and romantic Swiss Autumn with my long distance partner. We traveled deep into the Swiss mountains, ate all the yummy food, met old friends, went to a dance party, made some new friends, enjoyed a private sauna with an impressive view, took naps, snuggled, and went on […]

We have to get a little creative here with our PNW Photojournalism. One of the first things you learn as a new natural light photographer is how incredible a big window can make any room look. A tiny corner in the most unassuming place, if sitting close to a window can produce the most magical […]

Tonight, I took the boys to the Everett Haunted Harbor community event! Everyone putting it on was so sweet and we all had a blast! Thank you to all the boat volunteers! We started with trick or treating at the boats, watching witches paddle board around the harbor, petting all the neighbor dogs, and watched […]
