I have been hinting around to changes lately. After photographing families, weddings, children, events…I finally have decided what suits me and my photography style best. I will now be specializing in High School Senior Portraits. Now, this isn’t the plain old cap and gown or that drape we had to wear back when I was in school. Not at all! :) My style has always been taking a fabulous fashionable person and find a dirty, not so pretty location and let them pose as if they are in a fashion magazine. I’m inspired by fashion and editorial style shoots where smiles aren’t always necessary. What I have learned in the past few years is that my style and what I love to photograph is exactly what High School Seniors want to have in photographs of themselves.
The first most obvious change is the Portfolio page of my website. I have removed the Children, Family, and Boudoir sections. I always hear that you should show the work that you want to attract and for me, that is Seniors and Individuals & Couples interested in Fashion & Editorial inspired photo shoots. The second most obvious change is the addition of the High School Senior gallery to the Portfolio page. From time to time, you may still see a few family sessions appear on the blog, because I do have lots of friends with children. I just won’t be focusing on these types of sessions anymore or targeting them as part of my business.
I have also named the High School Senior Portrait side of my business {Twelve}12 and created some new logos to match. I just wanted a bit of a separation from Tricia Toker Photography.
That’s the big news for now! Soon I will be announcing the details of the Class of 2012 Spokesmodel program, where Gwinnett County High School Seniors will help promote {Twelve}12 and receive free photo sessions and/or products in return!
