Kamee June Photography bio picture

the looks of my life, the looks of my loves, and what I look like

i love the look on jaren’s face when we are at a party and I catch him staring at me from across the room, looking at me like he is seeing me for the first time. i love the smile i get from gunnar when we are on the carpet playing cars, trains, or dinosaurs; he stares at me amazed, like i am the coolest mom who has motorized and prehistoric sounds coming from my mouth. i am in love with the look i get from my new baby girl each morning when i get her out of bed; she beams because i am someone special to her. i love my parents’ faces when i walk through the doors of home after having been gone for a long time; their eyes fill with love, and i see a reminiscent comfort. i love the expression my sister gives when she realizes the adoption cleared; they will be getting another baby.  i love the weary grin on my brother’s face as he crosses the finish line of his 64th marathon.  i love the surprise on my girlfriend’s face when i gift her our favorite lip gloss we thought was discontinued. i love the look on my face when i find the perfect pair of slimming jeans or the most flattering swimsuit. i even love the look on children’s faces when they get all pouty and sad because they don’t get their way. i love the look of graduation day: the look of accomplishment, success, and the anticipated future. i love the look of a man totally devoted to one woman because she completes his heart. i love the look of unexpected surprises, the look of a fourth of july picnic, the look of first visits to disneyland, the look of falling stars, the look of winter's first snow, the look of a long overdue vacation, the look of winning soccer teams, the look of cookies fresh from the oven, the look of christmas morning, the look of family, the look of mothers drinking in their new babies, the look of unspoken yet powerfully present love. i love the expressions, the countenances, the features, and the presence of life and its undeniably endearing moments, and i love immortalizing them forever with my camera. 

this blog fuses the looks of my life and looks of my loves. it follows my expressions of growth, both professional and personal, and it allows you to take a peek at my moments, my thoughts, and my heart.

i would love to meet your look. 

this workshop is brought to you by the letters j and c: the jessica claire workshop, chapter III

in the photography world there is a fine line between inspiration and intimidation; it can be challenging to look at a contemporary’s work and not feel intimidated. there are so many gifted and talented photographers in today’s industry. the objective is to find those who inspire you, on whatever level, and stick close to them. there is no room for personal growth or career progress when intimidation is the major emotion felt.

this photographer inspires me, and i appreciate what she has done to help me focus my skills and also help my business grow:

i am also grateful that i can be of help at her workshops because of all the inspiring vendors and photographers i am able to meet. i am magnetized to creative people and the way they see this world. i am fascinated by design, details, and art and all of their levels.

attending a jessica claire workshop is quite surreal, from meeting her to what she teaches clear down to the sublime shoot she and her expert team create; it’s better than any cupcake i have ever eaten. and i like cupcakes. ;)

Color. Crisp. Angle. Lighting. Comprehension. The whole world is going to be at your door lining up for your wedding coverage. Maybe not your door, but your e-mail is going to flood. YOU ROCKED IT!

February 1, 2010 - 5:42 pm Joy - Since I'm fighting a cold & stuffed up nose, I have to keep reminding myself to breathe in & out of my mouth...with the jaw hanging open. Wow! Great pictures, Kamee! I can't pick a favorite but would like to know if the Barbies were that pretty in person?! Gorgeous!

February 1, 2010 - 10:56 am Tracy - Kam, you are on par with the best!

February 1, 2010 - 9:24 am Krissy - Very nice Kamee!

February 1, 2010 - 8:52 am cari - Wow, what an opportunity. She does a great job with workshops! And did I recognize that yellow wall in the first few photos? Was that the background for some family pictures you had taken...or very similar anyways!

February 1, 2010 - 7:44 am Jess - ah, it would be a dream of mine to attend a JC workshop :)
