Introduction

I am passionate about photographing people and working with the best, most flattering light to create beautiful images. A photo shoot is a partnership, and I enjoy collaborating with my clients to achieve exactly the look they are going for, whether that is something more standard, or something glamorous or fashion-oriented, magical, or just plain candid and fun. I give my clients a thorough selection of edited photos to choose what they like best. I have been in business for 20 years and studied under some of New York's top editorial and art photographers.

Laura’s photography almost made me cry when I saw it! I was expecting some awesome photos, but everything she sent was next level. This experience with her just made my whole week: she was fun and just great to work with. I’ll include some of my favorite photos just to prove my point! I would definitely recommend Laura in every way.

Details: Couples portrait • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Outdoors • 16 - 20 shots • Digital or online download • The portrait photographer travels to me • I travel to the portrait photographer

Laura is an amazing photographer! We have worked with her for over 4 years now and just love the results. As a creative professional I can say that all her photos have that special kind of magic. And our friends and family always comment on how incredibly beautiful the photos are. She manages to capture the moments in-between when you don't think the picture is taken... and those are the images that remain in our hearts the most. I just love everything about working with Laura. She's sweet and easy-going and makes us feel relaxed and that shows in the photos.

Laura Miller is a wonderful and multi-talented photographer. She beautifully captures people of all ages, she's superb with landscapes, and she can handle everything in between. She's also very adaptable on a shoot - she directs shoots brilliantly but also listens and understands her clients' needs at every turn, working closely with her subjects for gorgeous results.

Laura is not only a highly skilled photographer and an artist, but she understands how different people have different ideas about what constitutes the perfect portrait or coverage of an event. She works with you to make sure the photographs reflect your personality and in doing that, she can help you learn new things about yourself. This collaboration produces unique and expressive work that in a lot of cases can be museum-worthy. She's also great at bread-and-butter shots that can be used in resumes, business pamphlets and so forth.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
There are no additional fees other than the price quoted. Typically I charge $350/hour but might quote lower or higher depending on location and specifics of the shoot. When I deliver photos, they are yours to do with what you wish. You will receive a web gallery with images available to download high-resolution. You can make prints through the web service or download them and print on your own.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to communicate either by email or phone about what you are looking for. Inspiration photos or Pinterest pages that you might be able to share are always helpful. Then we will arrange a time and place and start shooting! I always find that it takes a few minutes to warm up and get comfortable, after which we should have a lot of fun. I like to see what happens naturally at first, but then give more direction as the shoot goes on.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I studied at the Santa Fe Photographic Workshops and as an assistant to some of New York's top editorial, fashion, and fine-art photographers. I have photographed fashion, family portraits, celebrity events, weddings, and news stories. I've also traveled around the world photographing international development projects. So, I have a vast amount of experience and love to adapt my skills to the client's particular project.
