I understand marketing for professional services businesses. Throughout my corporate career, working in marketing and graphic design for construction and commercial real estate firms for over 12 years, I was lucky because I not only understood photography, I understood how photography was used in marketing. So when I was behind the camera, I could capture the images and angles I knew we would need for the collateral we would be creating. But did you know I earned a bachelor degree in photography, back in the days of film and after countless hours spent in a darkroom perfecting the art? My career has involved research, planning, learning, practicing, more learning and more practicing—all of which I invested years of my life in. I am so grateful for that “old school” training! It has served me well.
