More about Jera L....
What do you love about your job?
I love using my camera to tell a story. Visual storytelling with the use of artistic imagery everyone can understand and relate to. I think getting a beautiful image taken of you and showing it off to the world is a unique way to keep and share memories in the modern world.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I have done multiple weddings, engagements, family sessions and newborns, however shooting family reunion style shoots are my favorite. I believe I hold the knack at utilizing what props are available whether it be a family farm or home setting and incorporating the clients personality and natural elements such as lighting to wrap up a beautiful image on the evening of capturing. Gathering everyone around grandpa for a "Claude Monet" impressionistic styled hay bale shoot at twilight would be a unique example.

A fun fact about this photographer
I volunteer at my church to draw personal pictures of people at downtown events that share that God loves them and is a good storyteller and knows each personal story uniquely and still speaks today.
