Michigan Portfolio Photographers Mary DuPrie So my new struggle is Social Media… I’m not even sure I like the name.  A kind reader suggested I look into paying for Facebook ads.  I feel like a total dolt but I’ve never even seen ads on my Facebook page.  I mentioned this to a fellow photographer and […]

Detroit Michigan Modeling Portfolio Photography by Mary DuPrie Spending a stupid amount of time  redoing literature.  My body is sore… as in my butt.  I can’t even imagine asking a graphic artist for the amount of revisions I’ve gone through.  Things I didn’t know I wanted or didn’t want.  I can see the benefits of […]

Detroit Michigan Modeling Portfolio Photography by Mary DuPrie I had my reshoot come back today (the whole jpg raw thing)… made the mom cry again.  She’s a natural, old enough to follow directions, young enough to have fun.   It’s great to see my techniques in action.  At the end of the shoot she’s not […]

Detroit Michigan Actors Headshot Photography by Mary DuPrie Great News… Gabe has landed a great feature role on the series The Whole Truth this Wednesday.  This sweetie pie plays a murderer! *********************** A simple little shoot like an actors headshot doesn’t have much cache.  But it does if a photographer is flying in to do […]

Childrens Headshots In Detroit Mary DuPrie Getting kids to “un-model” can be quite a task.  Kids as well as adults have an idea of what modeling is.  I call it “vogueing” or better yet “face-booking”. Really trying too hard to model, over the top, stiff poses.  I want a very relaxed almost bored looked.  When […]

Childrens Dance Headshots In Michigan by Mary DuPrie My affinity for shooting straight on serves me well when shooting headshots.  I love a model to look directly into my lens.  Not an easy task at all.  It looks quite simple but is actually quite difficult to do. Maddy is a talented dancer (another category of […]
