Teaching Review

Hi Mary! I wanted to pop in here and tell you how much I enjoyed the content from your senior photography class that you offered through The Creative Collaboration this year. I especially appreciated your gentle, positive approach to seniors. I found it very refreshing that you think of them as actual individuals reaching a milestone in their lives, not just a model to play with. I just had a senior shoot last night and I re-watched a few parts of your class and wrote down a few of the poses you use. It was very helpful! But by far the most earth-shattering "duh" moment was when you said, "Never ever make them feel like they're doing something wrong." I have taken this advice and used it in every one of my sessions and I've noticed how much they light up when I only use positive words and give them a heads up about how many times they're doing things. Such a small thing but such a huge shift! Thank you!
