I never thought I could be an indoor photographer. I didn’t have the confidence or practice with the equipment to feel like I could do it well. I had a friend who encouraged me years before I ever took the leap to buy my first backdrop that I should add that to my business model.
At the time, I didn’t have a studio space, nor could I afford one, but when digital cameras improved in low light, I began practicing photographing my baby son in our brightest window lit room, our dining room. I loved the results so much we decided to sell our dining room set and turn that room in to a studio by day. At night we’d set a card table up for our family of 3.
As the demand for my indoor photography grew, I began looking for a studio. Soon one came available and before I knew it my name was painted on a building on the square in my hometown. This opened up options for rainy days, or winter sessions, plus gave me room to be more creative with sets.
It’s funny how a friend can see something in our talent that we don’t see. All it takes is for us to believe it right back to see a new dream come to reality, one we may have never had the courage to dream up ourself.
I’ll link my favorite backdrop site and lighting equipment here.
