hello, my name is...
here's the deal:
less investment, more return
'plastic man' posing:
not allowed
not actually Ruby Lee
I cut out the ridiculous cost of albums: I do not do albums, nough' said. reality check: That elaborate album will, most likely, sit on a shelf never to be looked at again. trust me-
I don't do overpriced prints: what I do offer, is a free CD of your images! I also give you the option to purchase prints at a resonable price. I deliver the same "super high quality prints" as my competitors, but for a lot less $. I get all of my printing done through a local commercial printing company. They give me a pretty great discount, & I'm more than happy to pass that blessing along to you. Pretty rad, huh?
All portrait sessions: 2-3 hours for the shoot, & 25 final images on CD. After the shoot, I narrow them down to about 40, then you will choose your favorite 25 from those 40. These 25 "final images" are burned onto a CD, yours to keep forever & ever.
I love taking pictures [no surprise there].
I am a "lifestyle photographer". Basically, that means that I mix photojournalism, candid portraits, and creative photography approaches to capture the most beautiful and hidden moments. The silent vulnerability & raw emotion is what I aim to capture in each photo I take.
Lifestyle photography is a documentary approach- rather than the uber 'plastic man' poses that traditional photographers defult to. I have strong convictions on any "jumping bridal parties" or any type of "horizontal holding" of a bride by the groomsmen... ick and double ick is what I have to say to that. There will be no jumping. I can assure you of that.
I will do a few "posed" pictures in portraits, weddings, and all of the services that I offer, but even at that- My desire is to capture photos that are as eclectic and organic as possble.
My name is actually Megan, not Ruby. It's a bit of story why I named my business "Ruby Lee"... But even without the boring 'story'...."megan krape photography" sounds pretty lame...
I've been doing photography professionally for almost 4 years now. My decision to take on photography as a full time career was actually quite simple: It's my greatest passion in life.
I'm commited to creating an emotional connection with each subject that I shoot- no matter if it's a chair or a bride. I believe that exploiting true emotion (& I mean that in the best possible sense) is the literal purpose behind photography- It makes the photo subjective, rather than projective.... In my humble opinion, the traditional '"say cheese" approach is a boring tradition that falsly represents the intent & true emotion felt at the time the photo was taken. My desire is to engage viewers- not force them to agree with another illusion of the photographers sense of reality.
