ABOUT
 
Briana Gardell - Photographer

I’m a natural light photographer in Worcester, MA. Photography is my passion, particularly the art of capturing expressions, precious moments, and the personality of the subject. Anyone can smile and pose, but those shots aren’t the ones that tell a story. I pride myself in catching people in their element, where they are most comfortable and free.
 
WHAT TO EXPECT
 
In General

Once we book the session, we will converse via phone or email so that I can get a feel for what you want to get out of your time with me. This will also allow me to get a feel for your personalities and relationships. When selecting a location for your session, take into consideration your style and places with special meaning. Are you a city dweller or more comfortable in the country or woods?

On the day, I will meet you on location, whether it is at your home or elsewhere. During the session I will take care to capture a mixture of relaxed formal portraits and candid moments. I do not limit the clothing changes you have, but do take the session length into consideration. Time spent changing is time I’m not shooting. Please note that the fee is due at the session.

A sneak peek of your photos will be put up on my blog in the days following our session. Within 3 weeks your session will have been edited and uploaded to the viewing site.


Newborn Sessions

These sessions should take place within the first 2 weeks of birth, while the baby is still sleepy and cooperative. For your convenience and comfort (because those first weeks are a blur) I recommend the session take place in your home. I will come to your home and set up in an area with the best natural light. I will bring a variety of props to play with, and encourage the use of any special items you may have for the baby (outfit, hat, toy).


Senior Sessions

This is the time to celebrate your high school years. I will make sure to take some formal portraits for the yearbook, but I love the opportunity to bring out someone’s personality. Do you play a sport, dance, play an instrument, or act? Location and props can reflect your passions and hobbies.
