It’s time to meet another 417 photographer for our “Q & A with a Photographer” series!
Today we say hello to Megan White from Meg White Photography! Meg has been an absolute joy to have at the studio! She has used both our Loft & Lower Studio several times and we always love seeing the gorgeous photos she captures! Read below for more about her and what she has to say about Lightbox!
Meet Meg!
This is my 10th year in business! I originally began my business in Daphne, Alabama before moving back to my hometown of Springfield - I also moved by business out to Denver, CO for a couple of years before coming back, again! Springfield always draws you back in. ;)
Capturing joy is what I love the most about my time spent with couples and families. I specialize in weddings and family photography, but also love the occasional senior session and enjoy working with businesses (small and large) in creating head shots and branding images. I have been married to my husband, Nik, for 12 years and we have two amazing boys, Eli and Sam, who we just adore.
Q: How would you describe your photography style?
Portrait and lifestyle, (hopefully) a classic and timeless look.
Q: What is the most rewarding thing about being a photographer?
Capturing a raw moment that can be cherished forever.
Q: What is the best thing about your clients?
How fun they are - and when they feel more like friends than clients!
Q: What is your favorite thing to photograph?
I love family sessions! I am deep in the middle of family life and I know how much it means to have photos that show your kids' personalities and interactions with each other.
Q: If you could give one piece of advice to yourself when you first started as a photographer, what would it be?
Learn to balance work and play. Running your own business can seem like there is never an end in sight (because there really isn't!). So, even though hustling is important, it's even more important to learn how to also enjoy life outside of your work.
Q: If you could give one piece of advice to your clients what would it be?
For couples/weddings - enjoy your day! All the details will fall into place and at the end of the day, you will be married to the love of your life! For families - stop worrying about your kids running around or not listening during your session. I have two little rascals at home and I am not at all thrown off by yours. ;)
Q: What are some fun facts people may not know about you?
Hmmm... I played the oboe for 4 years. Haha!
Q: What would your ultimate, dream photo shoot be?
A styled shoot involving a beautiful table spread would be really fun
Thanks Meg! We LOVE your styled shoot idea and can’t wait to see all of the magic you create at Lightbox in the future!!
