Jennifer // Fitness Design Solutions

Fitness Design Solutions is getting a new website! Certified Pilates instructor and yoga teacher, Jennifer Cochran, called me to get some portraits and shots of her in action at her bright and gorgeous home studio in Potomac Falls, VA. See, she's going full-time as an instructor and with that comes a redesign of her business.  

I'm am so excited to work with other small business owners in the area to help leverage and promote their ventures. Jennifer is like having your gal-pal as an instructor.  She's patient, fun, a passionate about her job. I'm really excited to watch her business grow!

Oh, and the girl loves shoes, too.  My jaw dropped when I saw these beauties!!  Also, I've never met anyone whose hair actually gets better when they go outside in the oppressive heat and humidity of NoVa.  One word - JEALOUS.

I'd love for you to LIKE me on Facebook or visit my website!

Derek // Portraits

Employees at Discovery are often asked to speak at engagements, attend conferences, and do other cool things outside the office. Derek is SVP of The Agency, which is the internal creative agency at Discovery, and needed a mini portfolio of headshots for just those times.

Just a few to see!

Susan

My colleague, Susan, was interviewed by the APA (American Photographic Artists) and she needed a new photo of herself to go along with the article.  So she and I went up to the 8th floor of the Discovery offices and spent about 10 minutes getting some quick images.  Susan looks lovely and wow do I love that light on the 8th floor.  It's like a giant softbox!

Getting Well with Michelle

Referrals are great.  No, actually, they are superb!  You all remember Katie, right?  Well, Katie's referral of Michelle led us to a great photo shoot in Old Town Alexandria yesterday morning.  You cannot go wrong in Old Town.  In fact, a lovely gentleman even let us shoot in his backyard garden.  It was one of those historic homes that when you stroll by you wonder, "Who lives in there?  Wow, it's gorgeous! Oh yeah, if I were to live in Old Town, this is would be the one."

Anyway, let's get back to Michelle.  See, Michelle owns FindYourBalanceHealth.com where she has a no-nonsense approach to helping those over-stressed and over-worked humans find balance with diet and lifestyle.  She was also featured in the documentary movie Lemonade, which I saw last year and found very inspirational.  Creatives finding new work by being creative.  Love it and it really hit home for me.

Michelle is serious about her work, but you'd never know it.  This gal is FUN!  Great sense of humor, playful, yet grounded and smart about her business. Let's check it out!
