Maureen called to let me know they’d be late for our appointment but reassured me they were still on their way. She was already dressed and waiting at home, eagerly anticipating Scott’s arrival from Oregon. When Scott finally made it, Maureen was understandably nervous—it was her first professional photoshoot, and she wasn’t sure how to pose in front of the camera. I assured her that if she relaxed and trusted my guidance, everything would turn out beautifully. Looking back now, Maureen is beyond thrilled she chose to do this shoot with me—and so am I.
