I was given my first assignment for Baton Rouge Real Producers magazine. Its an incredible magazine that celebrates the successes of industry leaders and gives readers the privilege to hear the stories that create connections beyond a business transaction. This was the first time I’ve ever shot for a magazine and I didn’t know what to expect. Gina, the incredible publisher for Baton Rouge Real Producers makes my job as the photographer so easy!

My first assignment was the cover! WOAH! My nerves were shot. I knew this magazine would be sent to the top 10% in residential real estate production and their preferred vendors. This cover image will even be displayed on a traveling billboard. That’s a lot of pressure for a first assignment but Gina had complete confidence in me.

I’m forever grateful for the amount of trust she put in me to deliver images that headquarters would approve for the final publication. Luckily, the client Brittiny Howard showed up dressed with amazing outfits that I knew would pop in the magazine for her commercial branding photography session!

Brittiny even reached out to her friend so we could shoot at the amazing Kalurah St. grill after business hours!! She works hard and knows how to play hard. Kalurah St. is her place to get away and unwind from her daily grind. She loves to relax with a glass of wine and immediately knew that she wanted to have her picture with this magnificent wine wall in the background.

I’m looking forward to being stretched creatively from all the amazing sessions that are yet to come!
