Hello My Name is Jennie

Like most photographers, I would much prefer to be behind the lens than in front of it. BUT late this summer, I realized that it had been several years (read: 5+ years) since I’d had professional head shots taken, so I reached out to Aimee of Aimee O’Brien Photography.

Aimee and I met up last month outside Nevada City, and she snapped photos of me in two outfits.

This is definitely the more casual and comfortable of the two — and it’s what I don for nearly every client photo session.

Dark-colored blouse and dark-colored skinny jeans (no color casts coming from me) and boots.

Boots for two reasons:

1) My feet are notoriously cold.

2) You never know what kinds of critters might be out in nature alongside you as you shoot. (Yes, it’s true! I almost stepped on a snake once, and of course, I was wearing Converse tennis shoes at the time, not boots.)

I’ll be sharing more of my head shots and more about me in future blog posts. A big thanks to Aimee for making the experience both easy and fun!
