What an incredible experience today! ❤️ A HUGE thank you to the Unplug & Play Summit for inviting me to be part of this event and giving me the opportunity to bring my Remote Photography experience LIVE to your members! Today was especially exciting because it was my first LIVE Zoom event photographing multiple people remotely — and I loved every minute of it. 📸🌎 I was able to guide people LIVE through: ✨ Lighting ✨ Angles ✨ Posing ✨ Expressions ✨ Camera confidence All while photographing them remotely using their own phones! This is exactly WHY I developed my Remote Headshot system. I wanted my photography to reach beyond geography and give people the opportunity to experience a professionally directed photoshoot no matter where they live. Today showed me that this can be so much bigger than individual headshots. 📸 Individuals ❤️ Couples 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Families 🌎 Communities 🎤 Summits & LIVE events Thank you to the Unplug & Play Summit, the organizers, and everyone who showed up and trusted me to photograph them today. You gave me the opportunity to try something NEW with a system I created — and that means more to me than you know. ❤️ I have a feeling this was the first of many LIVE Remote Photography events!
