Hi, I'm Nicole Begley! I'm a pet and equine photographer, pet photography educator, and podcast host serving the greater Charlotte, North Carolina area. I have been a photographer in this space for over a decade and am excited to share how I got started in pet photography, share what a typical session looks like for me, provide advice to new pet photographers, and show you how CloudSpot has changed my life in this niche.

We asked to chat with Kara Hoffman, CloudSpot user and Sports Photographer, to talk about how she got her start as a sports photographer and what advice she has for those that may be new to the field.

Three of my favorite poses that I often incorporate into my senior sessions encourage movement! Movement is so powerful because it leads to a variety of angles and pose variations while giving the senior something to focus on instead of potentially feeling awkward by overthinking a pose.

I’m Terri Baskin, a destination wedding photographer, photography educator, and CloudSpot Ambassador! I currently call the Washington, DC area home and love serving sophisticated and joyful couples and creative photographers looking to level up their businesses.
