Photographer Spotlight: Talea Gaw

What’s in your camera bag & what’s your favorite lens?
Canon 5D Mark III, Canon 35L, Canon 50mm 1.2L, Canon 85L, Canon 135L, Canon 100L Macro. My favorite lens for studio is the 35L and my favorite for outdoor is the 135L!
Who inspires you?
How to even choose! I follow brands that have a style I love, so that when I see things it sometimes sparks a new idea to try!
What makes your brand unique?
While I LOVE creams, whites and neutral tones, my creative heart also loves muted color tones and styling sessions to flow together using both! This gives my brand a unique look, by mixing the two together. I also use studio light and natural light in every studio session!
What’s your favorite aspect of your business?
My favorite aspect of my business is styling sessions for my clients, from colors to props to wardrobe, then bringing it to life in their portraits! I absolutely love what I do and I’m so thankful I took a chance 12 years ago to open my photography business!
What business advice would you give to someone overwhelmed with starting out?
Number 1: Know your worth! Don’t undervalue what you can offer! Decide what makes you happy creatively and go for it! Show what you want to shoot, show what you want to sell and have confidence!
What’s your Starbucks drink?
Grande Espresso Frapp, double shot with whipped cream. YUM!
