I absolutely LOVE pictures.. to some it may seem excessive but I have personal reasons as to why I love them so. When my mom divorced her 1st husband, we left in such a hurry that most of my childhood pics were left behind. Once I became a parent, I promised myself to snap every single moment as I did not want to lose or miss anything.
I've been very fortunate to always be in circles with photographers. BUT: there's nothing like having your own personal dope as hell photographer. My sissy Karm H aka shutterchic_atl is on FIYAH!! I mean hot like hot sauce! She's dope but yet humble. I joke with her all the time that she's the humble sister.. I remember when she told me she was going to start taking pictures. We talked about cameras, equipment how much it would cost etc..
Being the sissy I am, I instantly jumped on board and told her to go for it!! Go all the way. What started as just a hobby, has turned into something so much more. She's absolutely one of the best I know. She's not an in the box type photographer, I mean this chick shoots everything. Although she said it was a play shoot, I'll never forget her taking time out of her Sunday with her family, to shoot my parents( son, daughter & niece and nephew). It was a very overcast kinda day but when we saw the pictures you could not tell.
From weddings, personal shoots, selling her pics to celebrity churches, she remains extremely humbled and focused. When I tell you I talk to God about her and her business!! I'm just happy that I get to watch it unfold and have a front seat...
I would be selfish to forget mentioning Rodney( rod_cali)!! If I tell y'all how the three of us really became super connected you'd think we're crazy.. but he's my MeyMey brother for life! Another dope photographer. His pictures speak to my heart and soul. I'm thankful for his photogenic eye. Although they shot differently, together they are one dope force to be reckoned with..
I woke up this morning to a text that bought tears to my eyes! They are BOTH featured on Buzzfed as the top 10 photographers to know in Atl! My sissy and Rodney!! I mean live and in color!!
Listen, book them NOW because by this time next year, you'll be in line with the rest of Atl!! I'm proud to personally know them and I'm proud to be in their corner. Two of the dopest I know and I can personally call them my Sissy and Brother!!
My lovies, stop selling your hobby short. If it's something you love make it yours, nurture it and watch it grow.. we all have it in us.. Let your hobby speak for you!!
Signed,
The Picture Queen
