Ever since I can remember I have always loved taking pictures. I have always preferred to be the one behind the camera and not in front of it. As a kid, I used to take random pictures around my house with a Polaroid camera or even a disposable camera. Remember those?! How fun was the Polaroid? It was the closest thing we had to a digital camera when I was a kid. That instant gratification of taking the picture, and then fanning it to help it dry. Then of course the ever popular disposable camera. The kind you had to wind up to be able to take the next picture? Then drop them off and wait patiently for your photos to be developed and then come back? Those were the days... :) As I got older I began to take more and more pictures. I was always "the girl with the camera." Whenever I went anywhere with friends I was always the one taking all the pictures. In 6th grade I got my first camera on my own. I earned it with all of my Accelerated Reader points (see kids, it does pay to read). It was an extremely basic Pentax film camera, but I thought it was awesome. Once I was in high school, I convinced my parents to buy me a nicer camera for Christmas. They bought me a Canon Rebel film camera which I loved and used up until I switched to a digital version of the Rebel once it became available.
As I got older, my love for photography deepened. I continued to take pictures as a hobby. I took my camera on countless Disney vacations, and did random landscape shoots around Savannah. When one of my best friends had a baby, that is where my view of photography shifted from being a "hobby" to becoming a passion. It was during a "mini photo shoot" while I was baby sitting my friends little girl that I truly felt a passion for photography. The images I was able to capture of this sweet little baby girl struck such a cord with me. I loved that I was able to capture that special time in her life and to share the photos with her mother.
I love being able to capture special moments in people's lives and to give them a photograph they can have and treasure forever. Please contact me at tiffanybradleyphotography@gmail.com to find out how you can have a session with me to capture your engagement, family, newborn, baby, child, senior, or maternity portraits. I would love to share in documenting this special time in your life.
To end this blog post, I thought I would share a photo from that little "mini photo shoot" of a precious baby girl that changed everything for me. I hope you love it as much as I do. :)
