Have you ever given any thought to the HOW's and WHY's of birds nest construction? You're answer is probably NO! I didn't either until I decided to clean up the leaves in my back yard a few weeks ago. Because of the enormity of the leaf piles I looked up at ALL of the trees that were in our back yard and those of the neighbors and spotted 2 birds nest. It got me to thinking about how they were made, what they were made of and why birds build nest. I mean its January and windy and those 2 nests have been there for quite some time. So I Googled this topic and down the rabbit hole I went. Today's episode talks about how to think about what you do and what you want for your life.

I think at one time or another all photographers think about having some type of studio space. Whether it's a small corner of your home where your can provide headshots to a few people or a 6000 square foot warehouse type of space that you divide up into sections for different type of shoots and client meetings. We all have dreams on having space to connect with clients to offer a unique personal experience. Today's episode I share my FIRST home studio (my son's bedroom) and what I used as backdrops for their photos. There are the key elements on having a successful home studio, Location- What part of your home are you going to use for your home studio. Does it offer enough light Lighting while you can use home lamps and daylight temperature light bulbs be mindful to select a room with good natural lighting. Props- Look around your house and see that you can move from room to room to create a new look and feel. Sometimes adding a bowl of fruit or a potted plant to a table is enough to jazz up the place while adding color and depth to your photos. If this IS something you want to do I encourage you to try it, see how it feels and that way you get the feel of it before the huge commitment of a lease. let me know if you have any questions .
