Open Projects
Please read the project descriptions carefully to see if you would like to apply to participate in one or more of my open photography projects. Participation is completely free of charge, but you must meet outlined requirements. Click on the project and fill out the following form to apply!
01
Motherhood
Looking for authentic moms to take part in a photography project! The goal of the project is to show motherhood as it really is across different families. As a photographer, I help families look their best for their family portraits, and while I love that, I know the reality of parenting does not usually look picture-perfect. I want to capture the real, messy, hard, beautiful work moms do every day.
Requirements:
-
Must be willing to have me photograph unposed, untidied, everyday moments in your home or daily routine
-
Must sign a model release so that your photos and/ or quotes can be shared online or in print form (without any identifying information included)
-
Must be willing to take part in a short phone interview prior to the session
Participants will receive any photos used for the project free of charge.
