I love meeting new folks and new businesses in Durham, especially when they’re right around the corner, and especially when they’re as awesome as Dr. Adam Bowers and his team! Adam came to me looking for updated branding photos for his dentistry business and they were so much fun to work with. His team consists of Adam, Kayla, Izzy, Sana, and Flor, and we spent the morning talking about national parks (Adam has been to 39 and counting!), wheaten terriers (he’s a big fan), and the wonders of HGTV combined with the modern miracle of dentists having televisions on their ceilings (a true sanity lifesaver). We had a very wonderful patient model that the team worked with (thank you, Kelly!) and we are pleased to report that zero whole mouth extractions had to take place. I loved working with Renaissance Family Dentistry on their new branding photos!

Sometimes you just meet a person and click. This was my first time meeting Sandy, but we both have a background in education (although Sandy’s is far more extensive and impressive than my brief stint!) and we both are certified plant ladies, crafters, and women who enjoy large earrings. We had a great time working together talking about all those things and more! Sandy left this session with photographs and also several houseplant pups, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! It was a joy to meet and work with her and update her headshots!

I have somehow known Brooke since 2012 (!) when we photographed her and her husband Red’s wedding, which both seems like a lifetime ago and also yesterday. Brooke is a very talented lawyer and it was so much fun to catch up with her again to update some of her headshots!
