    I really enjoyed getting the chance to practice posing and light utilization with other photographers and with good feedback. The studio space was gorgeous and Jordan was great to work with.

    I wasn't sure what to expect going into this, but I learned a ton. The biggest and immediate advantage was about how impactful the language you use when posing people can help them become more comfortable.

    Beautiful weather and fantastic venue. It was challenging to find all the different landmarks, but we got to all the major ones! According to my phone, we walked over a mile and a half, but it didn't feel like it. Highly recommend any other trips to this location. As a bonus, I got to practice my long exposure with a fountain near the gate. Pretty happy with the results!

    PHOTOGRAPHERS
    Audrey Nilsen
    PHOTOGRAPHY is my business and my PASSION. I've been shooting images since I was 8 years old and am excited every time I look through my lens. There's a story around every corner and, as a photographer, I can capture the energy and mood that is not seen with the naked eye but through the lens of the camera. My education included a four-year college degree and, more importantly, a two-year degree in photography. This background supersedes my EYE, that's my best asset.

    This photo was captured at Eagle Creek Park back in September of 2024. It was an amazing morning for photography as the fog wasn't heavy enough to obscure but add atmosphere to the overall image. The sun was just starting to break and I was fortunate to be setup and ready for when this buck came into the scene with the Grey Heron and the White Egret. The photograph was captured using a Canon EOS R6MKII and a Tamron 150-600mm G2 lens and my settings: f/22 ? 1/400 ? 600mm ? ISO25600

    After noticing an almost 3 foot spider web in the corner of my gazebo, I started looking for the spider. I saw him tucked away in the corner hiding. So for the next week I check the web multiple times a day waiting for it to be on the web. I finally decided to do research and used my phone to get a picture of it in the corner. After I googled the photo I learned it was a nocturnal spider and only came out at night. So that next day I set my tripod and camera up facing the center of the web. We

    This was taken with, at the time a new lens RF 100-400. I was on one of many hikes through the park, and I came across these amazing flowers, and the bees were very busy. I took several shots but this one is by far my favorite.

    I enjoy macro photography highlighting parts of everyday object wee usually overlook. In this picture, I noted the opening of the white rose petals to reveal the reds and oranges of the stamens and pistil against a golden glow formed from the light diffusing through the scene, like the opening of a painted paper fan.
