Experienced Photographer, Specializing in Portraits

Larisa G.

Hello, Future Photographer Rockstar!

My Name is Larisa, I've had a passion for art and photography for as long as I can remember. I believe that you can find art and beauty in everything. I love expressing my own view of beauty through photography and catching life's most memorable moments in still shots that we can cherish forever. Photography enables us to capture what is already there, through our own point of view and apply our own style to it. Only you can express yourself exactly how you want to, I'm just here to help you learn the skills of handling your camera, posing your models, finding the right lighting and composing your shots!

Whether you want to learn about photography as a hobby or as a way to make some extra money, I am here to help!

I have taken several workshop classes from Fife Photography, and I've been doing photoshoots ever since. I have traveled all over tutoring. I spent four months in Vukovar, Croatia teaching English, I've also tutored at-risk children in the DFW community.

I have lesson plans laid out to ensure that you will feel confident in your abilities, whether you're planning on taking pictures for personal use, or paid photoshoots!

Every lesson will come with encouraged projects for you to do at home so that we can look at and discuss areas of improvements for your photos.

Lessons will include:
1. handling of your camera settings (Because all professional photographers shoot in manuel!)
2. Composure (what should and shouldn't be in your shot, how to crop like a pro.)
3. Lighting (how to get that golden-hour-glow that is so popular on our FAV app Instagram!)
4. Posing ( how to position your models so that they love your photos, and always come back to you for more!)

Please contact me if you are interested in a one-on-one session learning more about photography!
I will gladly provide a free consultation meeting to go over lesson plans :)
