The Jazz Room has been an ongoing client of mine since the beginning of the summer. I have been creating content for their Instagram and Facebook showcasing their musicians, board members, volunteers and sponsors. 📸⁣
⁣
I come in and photograph 4-5 amazing people per month, interview them and then create a post that posts. It has been so fun and also a bit different than just taking photos! ⁣
⁣
Thanks to for the behind the scenes shots! I will be creating a video showcasing this session from start to finish, so keep an eye out! 👀⁣

Happy Halloween!! 🎃 👻

I want to share this photo because there is a bit of a story behind it. Alyssa and I were doing a challenge a few weeks ago for Instagram and it involved using a pumpkin in some way. A couple weeks prior, I tried out long exposure photos in Haliburton and I was SO excited about the photos I captured that starry night.

I knew we had to create something so different than what everyone else would do. We wanted it to be creative and fun. I also knew we would need to have a calm, clear sky night in order for this photo to work out. Thankfully, we were blessed with a very clear night sky!

To paint the scene of the behind the scenes, I was all bundled up in a winter jacket and poor Alyssa had to stand COMPLETELY still with no coat for 13 seconds per frame for as long as the smoke bomb lasted which was about 2 minutes. Alyssa's boyfriend, Chad, was our creative assistant who toggled the flash AND made the smoke bomb go off. The dream team right here!

This type of photo takes a lot of thought and effort behind the scenes. I am so proud of what we created and I can't wait to see what the future holds with more creative branding shoots!

Have a wonderful day!
