Hi! My name is JuJu and I am getting new to this whole blogging thing. Want to blog as much as I can so I can always look back to each event I have captured and read what I was feeling and how much I gained as an artist at the time. So here is my intro...
I have been doing photography for about 6 years now, and I truly love it. I love the fact that I can capture memories that people can look back on forever. My goal is to capture it in a way that no one else can. Capture it so uniquely that it will bing tears to eyes, or chills from head to toe. I believe I have been successful thus far. But I know, I have so much more to learn and gain as a photographer.
I went to school for hair and makeup and worked in salons transforming people and making them feel so beautiful, it changed their outlook on their bad days, or hard times they were going through. I loved that feeling! I started to think about all that they are feeling, for that moment, feeling that flawless and beautiful, why not capture it on film so it is forever remembered? So, my little sister bought me my first DSLR and I began to shoot every person I made feel perfect. It was the highlight of my career. I only wish I could have started years prior! I moved to New Jersey, and went to school in Manhattan to learn all about photography! It only confirmed that I adore NYC, and finally found my calling. I was that much more determined and focused to get all my creativeness out into the world.
I now focus more on photos, not so much hair and makeup. But I can however get creative when I have my visions for certain shoots. It's like I can see how the picture has to look, so I give it my all until I capture it. That is exactly how I felt with hair and makeup. I knew it was doable and I did everything I could to mock what I had envisioned. And never once did I fail my vision! :)
So, here is my life through my lens. My visions coming through and imagination being as creative and bringing out beauty in all aspects. I hope you enjoy this ride with me. Get ready for some unique editorial shoots, along with beautiful weddings, engagements, maternity, children and etc.
My goal is to let you feel and think what I do. From my lens...to your heart.
