Shoot’n Star Photography
Conceptual / Editorial Fine Art Portraits
I’ve always been a shutterbug, a documentarian of sorts. I grew up moving all over the country and I think taking pictures became my way of coping with losing friends or leaving places that I would never see again. The power of an image is undeniable. It ties in nearly every one of our senses and solidifies a memory.
Growing up in the 80’s, I also fell in love with music and fashion and how they intertwined. Both have played a major role in my life and provided total inspiration for my photography which I think comes across loudly in my work.
I’ve been collaborating with a local make-up artist, Christina Kennedy, to create conceptual character portraits. I really like the idea of a photographer paired up with a make-up artist who shares their artistic vision, plus I can ensure the look comes across the way our client has requested.
While I specialize in not-your-average pin-up girl or conceptual character portraits, I’m also available for all types of photography projects. I love a challenge! I take my time to scout out locations, help with wardrobe choices and whatever else it takes to bring a look together.
Also, my RAW Austin showcase is this Thursday, July 19th at the
