When I started getting into photography, I found inspiration (and a bit of envy) for Lara Jade. It doesn't happen everyday that you encounter a photographer who's gifted with skills, good looks, and styling prowess. It's like a complete package, and I wanted that LOTS. Thing is, we can't always get what we want. But we can make the most of what we've got!
It is in Lara Jade that I saw that you don't really need fancy lights when you want to shoot pictures. All you'd need to start is a good eye, good taste, and a whole lot of creativity. I've marveled at her photos which were shot next to a window, some were taken with a house plant as props. I believe that she has great skills maximizing natural light. Something I do hope to have myself.
Today, Lara shoots with more equipment we're familiar with. Seeing her work evolve keeps the inspiration alive. That like her, we have to grow and mature, skills and creativity wise. Now that I'm all hardcore into the craft, I find great joy to still be inspired by the same artist that fueled my passion when I began.
