Portrait & Event Photographer based in Ashland, VA 23005, USA
At some point most folks have thought and said, "I'm just not photogenic". The truth is, everyone has something beautiful about them. They just need someone to help them see it and most importantly, to capture it. I specialize in helping others see their beauty and attractiveness. Hi! I'm Natalie Parker, a passionate photographer focusing in head shots, portraits and events. I'm based in Ashland, VA, 20 minutes north of Richmond, and I'm the proud owner of Self & Soul Photography. If you're shy in front of the camera and would rather not have one pointing your way, welcome to the club. I'm much more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it. I know all the hesitations for wanting to avoid being in front of a camera lens. If you are nervous about doing a photo shoot, it's alright. I can help you overcome it. You will surprise yourself and will be happy you did it! You are going to look so good! I guarantee it! Whether you need a formal head shot for employment or organization or a more relaxed and personalized portrait, I will help you achieve the look you want. You've come to the right place. I'm so glad you're here!

Natalie of Self and Soul Photography took care of me from the beginning to the end. She made the process convenient and assisted in coordinating a makeup artist prior to the shoot. She is very patient and knows how to capture the best. Try her for sure. You won't be disappointed.
