Photographer
Thorfinn LLC
Elko, NV
08.2018 - 10.2024
I have been photographing Airstreams, RVs, and vehicles at Thorfinn since 2018.
I understand how to capture critical lighting and angles.
I know that consistency is essential when photographing multiple vehicles, but I also understand that sometimes each vehicle must be treated differently to capture it to its best advantage.
Consult with clients to understand their needs and preferences for a photo shoot.
Review proofs with clients to determine which images should be printed or published.
Advise on appropriate poses, props, and backgrounds for each shot taken.
Compose creative shots from different angles that are visually appealing.
Assist in planning setup of shoots including location scouting.
I have transported vehicles to different locations for photo shoots.
I have edited photos using Adobe Photoshop and other software applications.
I not only did the photography, but also wrote, posted ads, and responded to inquiries.
I also did detailing, staging, and minor touch-up work on cabinetry, upholstery, and paint.
I am great at time management and working without supervision. My manager would always give me the assignment, leave me to accomplish it, and then review my work when I was done, and communicate any changes or alterations that he wanted.
I am familiar with iPhones and have a mentor who uses an iPhone as one of her cameras, and has been in professional photography for over 20 years..
