Today we’d like to introduce you to Brooke Embry.
Hi Brooke, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I started my photography journey in 2011 with a focus on families and high school seniors. While I thoroughly enjoyed it, I didn’t feel fulfilled; something was missing. I knew I loved photography and continued down my path until I had my son in 2017. In preparing for the baby, I also set out to learn about all things newborn photography so I could take his photos when he was born and BOY-OH-BOY!
Little did I know just how fulfilling newborn photography would end up being for my soul! After that time, I set out to learn everything about maternity and newborn photography and finally found my niche!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Like any journey, I have certainly had some bumps in the road! Photography is an industry in itself that is hard to make a name for yourself in with so many hobbyists out there.
After learning digital composite work and lighting newborn babies; my business has grown more and more each year and this year I was able to secure my first studio space outside of my home!
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I specialize in Maternity and Newborn portraits. I am known for my creative design work and for providing clients with some more elaborate portraits that will take their breath away. I am proud of building this business from the ground up with the support of my husband! With any form of art, my style of photos is what sets me apart.
I don’t really fall into any realm of “dark and moody” or “light and airy” – I like to stay in a lane of my own based on what sets my soul on fire. If I don’t look at a portrait I’ve created and think, “Oh my gosh! I love it!” then I am going to re-edit it until I do.
Before we go, is there anything else you can share with us?
