Behind the curtain...

Scroll to bottom for TLDR... 

Hi everyone!  Looking at some of the feedback from exit surverys on the site, we got the impression that you guys would like some more engagement and activity from us, as creators.  So here's a little background info - as well as Chris, I also do a ton of our Patreon stuff.  My name is Leeann (nice to meet you) and Chris and I have owned a business together since March of 2011 (10 years!!).  We met about 15 years ago when I was dating his friend, and reconnected several years later when we started ride sharing to our day jobs about an hour away.

I was nearing the end of my modeling "career", and was doing nightclub photography in Boston, MA.  I started getting jaded with the crowds, and wanted to do photography more on my terms.  Chris' photography was heavily rooted in automotive (which he still does).  My apartment at the time couldn't support a studio, he offered his basement, and we picked a business name and registered the trademark the same week. The rest is history! (A lot of history,  even marrying our respective spouses in back-to-back wedding ceremonies in Vegas in 2015)

We've used Chris' name as the content portion of our business since our rebranding back in 2019. I won't list it here (its mostly weddings and family stuff), but if you do some googling I'm sure you can find it easily enough.

My hope is to be able to do more conversational type bts stuff now that I'm introducing myself, and engage a little more fully with everyone.  I would also be willing to share gear and setups, as well as some of my editing streams if anyone would be interested in seeing it.  I think there might be some of you that are interested in the process for creating intimate portraits, as well as seeing the final product.  Let me know what sort of stuff you guys are interested in!  

Photo sets will continue, but probably not on the same schedule.  I plan on redefining the tiers, since I think the descriptions are both specific and vague, and thats created some confusion for people.  

TLDR:
My name is Leeann.  I'm a former model turned photographer and am the other owner of the studio Chris runs.  A lot of the stuff long time patrons have seen over the years is mine, and I've quietly been doing Patron since Feb of 2019, along with Chris :) Expect to see more from me in the future, especially for bts and maybe some tutorial type stuff.  :D
