"Thanks to your prompts and directions shared, I now have a plethora of poses and prompts to pull from and keep each session fresh and new."

I love how the Light Livin guide goes beyond only showing students how to pose their subjects for photographs. It digs deeply into the craft of producing organic and real moments. In addition to offering strategies for achieving sincere interactions and reactions, the course and guide discusses the significance of connection and emotion in photography. I was struggling with always capturing the same few poses each session. I felt I was giving the same directions over and over and I was getting burnt out and feeling uncreative during shoots. Thanks to your prompts and directions shared, I now have a plethora of poses and prompts to pull from and keep each session fresh and new. They are simple and easy to follow and remember but make such a huge difference when you are on location and shooting. Now I don’t leave for session without my bag of tricks to make sure I get those shots of the kids that my clients cannot wait to hang on their walls.
