FASHION | SPRING KIDS

By Leslie Kerrigan, Fashion Editor

What are your kids wearing to celebrate the spring season?  I love the use of different shades of green and blue in the inspiration below!  It reminds me of the beautiful green grass and leaves on the trees mixed with the color of water!  And who doesn’t want to be by the water right about now? :)  Spring break is next week and I am dying to go to the beach!  Something about these colors make me think I am already there!

These outfits are perfect for the little girl and little boy in your lives!  I know many of you are probably doing spring mini sessions for your clients or just getting photos of your kids this time of year.  And these clothes would be perfect for photos this spring!

INTERVIEW WITH YAN PALMER | CELEBRITY PHOTOGRAPHER

Today we get to hear from the amazing, Yan Palmer, of Yan Photography. Yan is a film shooter. She has figured out how to shoot in a way that makes her heart sing and feel completely fulfilled as an artist. the best part? her clients like her more because of it, and she actually attracts clients she likes too! Its fancy.

What camera do you use? Favorite lens?
contax 646 and 80mm 2.0

What has been the most helpful critique you ever got on an image?
I think the first critique that broke me down technically and made me realize I had a world of learning in front of me.

What 3 words would you use to describe your style?
honest, heartfelt, ethereal

Where do you pull your inspiration from?
everywhere. light. nature. wind blowing through long hair. little moments of beauty always going unnoticed. relationships. the complexity of the human experience. lace. old things. music.

What is one specific way that you balance work and family?
I accept a limited amount of sessions so that I still have time to be a mostly full time mom…..

Best biz/photo advice?
focus on your strengths, they will help you become the best version of yourself.

What have you learned the hard way?
everything. mostly to shoot what i love 100% of the time.

How does your business deal with the rise in photographers. What have you done to standout and compete?
I am constantly searching for ways to set myself apart, its in my nature. I think the medium I shoot with helps. the biggest thing I’ve done to stand out is gotten real instead of projecting false success.

Where have most of your 2011 clients come from (besides WOM)?
blogging for sure. happily, other photographers began to start knowing and appreciating my work and asking me to photograph them.

What has been the best workshop or convention you’ve attended so far?
film is not dead by jonathan canlas

What is your most popular product?
digital files
