What's in a Name

Someone recently asked me, " Why Glowing Photography? Why not Shideler's Shutters, Kara's Camera, or KS Photography?" I thought about it and while it is somewhat appealing for my business to obviously bare my name I had a bit of an "ah ha" moment. Photography for me is more about what I'm taking pictures of than the fact it is me taking them. I want to capture those "glowing moments" take as an example one of my first business banners; what is more glowing than a perfect baby belly? 

The image is from one of the very first professional shoots that I did, an inspiring experience.

What started as a desire to express the beauty of "Glowing" new mom's quickly and easily translated into newborn photography and then back to my first camera wielding experiences in wedding photography. Again I was struck by the profound beauty of the moments and the expressions of love. It was immortalizing these moments of love and human interaction that really drove me to seek out more business. It was also not lost on me that the word glowing has a reference to light- the media by which photography is possible. So there is my answer! That's why Glowing Photography and not anything else.
