My name- michelle yeager
My style- constantly evolving, but hopefully viewed as simple and true to life.
Where I'm from- currently living in Chatham, IL (right out of Springfield) but originally from northern Minnesota.
Why I do what I do- i love children and photography... it just makes sense. plus i need a creative outlet or i go crazy.
The piece of equipment I can't part with- my 5D, it's cut my processing time in half. I LOVE MY CAMERA!
The vendors you should know about- WHCC, blu :), and Asuka book (they make the best coffee table books).
If I had to have someone shoot a portrait of me it would be- Rachel Devine. i don't even know if she shoots adults, but her images of children are so amazing. check her out at www.racheldevine.com and www.tinyphotoshop.com . She's one of the people who inspired me to be a photographer... so to meet her, even if i had to get my own picture taken, would be amazing!
What I had for a snack today- cookies... too many cookies.
One thing I struggle with- charging for something i love doing.
A piece of advice that improved my photography- find your own style.
If not a photographer I would have been- a less tired stay at home mom.
Michelle' favorite image of recent
A hobby of mine- there's such thing as a hobby unrelated to photography?!
3 things on my desk- clutter, clutter, and more clutter... did i mention my desk is cluttered?!
A product in my shower that I buy monthly- philosophy purity made simple. philosophy products rock my world.
The dream shot I'm still waiting for- i guess i'll know it when i get it.
A CD I'm listening to- Norah Jones.
Something I do to market myself- absolutely nothing. (i guess a feature on the blu domain blog is a good start!) i have been solely word of mouth up until now, but am working to change that.
The last good movie I saw- The Holiday. i have to admit, to my husband's dismay, i am a huge fan of a good chick flick.
The perfect client is- someone who hands creative control completely over to me and gets really excited when they first see their proofs.
The shoes I'm wearing right now are by- diesel. so comfy.
My best feature- my laugh, i've been told it's contagious on many occasions!
A habit of mine- giving away something for nothing... apparently it's not a good thing do to do in business... who would've guessed?!
Hillary Clinton- hmmm... i live in illinois. so, i guess, barack obama
