Stephanie was kind enough to come out and assist me on a shoot Tuesday evening and not only did she bring along her awesome skillset (she’s a great photographer) but also brought the right attitude as demonstrated in today’s LOL Thursday image. Thanks so much Steph!!! 🙂

Liz is back today leading the laughs with this “LOL Thursday” moment from our session this past weekend. The final images may look dramatic and serious but there’s no doubt we’re having fun along the way.

Laughing our way through this LOL Thursday with Francesca! This was from my recent HCA colleague headshot session and it demonstrates my favorite reasons for doing these monthly sessions. I get to meet people from across the enterprise here share a laugh (usually) with people I might never have gotten to meet in the scope of my job. Great meeting you, Francesca!

Photographer, teacher, and all-around awesome human being Jeff Lipsky is in action here for today’s “LOL-Thursday” post. I’ve been to Santa Fe Photographic Workshops twice to attend Jeff’s workshops and I can’t stress how much a good workshop can improve your skills and get you excited about your photography work. As you might gather from this shot, Jeff has great energy and enthusiasm for his craft and the sharing of the knowledge he’s gathered during his career. Thanks for the education and the laughs, Jeff!

I knew I’d get some LOL Thursday material shooting with Jaquarius this past Sunday afternoon. Whenever we work together we end up with a lot of these moments. J is such an easy model to work with and one of the most genuine people you’ll ever meet 🙂

Charlotte is leading the laughs for this “LOL Thursday” with this shot from her headshot session yesterday. I often ask my subjects to “give me some eyebrows” and I’ll demonstrate from behind the camera. I do this to elicit a laugh from the subject since they’ll see their face on the monitor when I click the photo. This often results in some very natural smiles and great positive energy for several images after. I’d say it was a success for sure and you’re likely to see Charlotte as Headshot of the Week! for next week too!
