My name is Hope Taylor and I am a wedding photographer, educator and speaker located in Savannah, GA. I began building my business as a 16 year old high school student, and made the decision to pursue my business full time directly out of high school (and I revoked a college admission in the process...this is just the cliff notes version) ;)
Now, I am a full time photographer and business owner with the privilege of pursuing my dreams each and every day. I travel the world to photograph weddings and speak at industry leading events, and this channel is where you can follow along with my adventures! I am so honored that you're here!

This is amazing! Thank you!
Which print lab do you use from cloud Spot?
AHHH, THESE PICS WERE STUNNING!!!! 😱 Great video ♥!
I clicked on the download link, but never received a download.
Good day Ma’am, can you recommend budget friendly camera’s for beginners? That are less than $1000 THANK YOU YOU!
Great video!! Would you make a video of senior guy portrait shoot? With a car?
Just curious, how much caffeine do you drink before a shoot? It's exhausting watching this ... And the high pitched voice... Seriously hurts my ears. No doubt some good information, but damn... I can't do it I'm sorry...
No caffeine, just genuine joy and excitement for my clients - and they love it! Setting the tone for the energy at your sessions changes everything!
I don’t mean it bad but I’m really surprised that people actually pay for that it looks like an iPhone picture no background blur just minimum retouching and artificial positions which many people may consider not being represented by but apparently there is a market for that in your area :)
I can assure you that the Canon R6 and L series lenses do not create images that look like an iPhone and absolutely have background blur and retouching :) thanks for watching!
You have amazing videos 😊
Thank you so much!
I love all this!
So glad it was helpful!
Great investment
Also, have you ever done a video on what to include in a landing page? For embedded forms!
Do you have just one master email list or do you have categories based on the content they want? (Trying to figure out how to have a wedding list and a separate boudoir list if possible!)
I personally only have one - but you can absolutely segment your list! The easiest way, in my opinion, is to add the desired tag to each subscriber based on how they enter your list - then send emails to only the people with the correct tag :)
Video starts here 3:58
Have you ever done headshots with natural light no flash or lights
Yes, I photograph all of my portraits with only natural light!
Great video
Thanks for watching!
This was amazing, I just changed my setting to this and what a difference
I’m so glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching!
So beautiful! 💕 What lens did you use?
I believe she was using the EF 50mm F1.2 and EF 85mm f1.2
@@JoseJose-tp2cp is exactly right!
@@JoseJose-tp2cp thank you.😊
Beautiful wisteria 💜
It really is so stunning!
Do you sell LrC desktop presets for editing photos? I love your videos, they're so helpful!!
I don't yet, but they are coming soon! ;) Thanks for watching!
Nice, but over expose in the final Images. Detailes were lost. I will follow you.
Definitely a style preference! My clients prefer the bright and airy images :) Thanks for watching!
This energy stressed my out😂 made it to min 7, relax girl
Hey Hope! Do you still use this app for Instagram and have you started using the pre-scheduled posts at all? I have been using a different app but having trouble with it so my instagram game is not great - needing to up it for sure!!
The only reason im looking at CloudSpot is because HoneyBook is not available outside of US & Canada 😭 hopefully CloudSpot can fill what I need as a freelance Photographer or maybe even soon a hybrid of photog&videog. Thanks for these kind od videos!
Hi there! Thank you for sharing this video. I'm excited to streamline my workload/editing time using Imagen, however, I keep running into issues trying to import my Lightroom Catalog. It shows the total photos, but shows 0 for filtered, citing the image files are jpeg or tiff. I shoot in raw and jpeg, but also, if its importing from the catalog im just not sure what im doing wrong. I have tried exporting the catalog with and without the smart previews. Do you have any idea what I might be missing or doing wrong? Thank you for your help!
How did you find out where your seniors are going? Eating? Shopping? etc.
The background of final photos are over expose! aren't they?
This is a style preference! Some backgrounds may be slightly over exposed to compensate for accurate skin tones.
This is absolutely an outstanding video!!! Excellent explanation of camera settings. Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for watching! So glad you enjoyed!
I have CloudSpot and LOVE it!!!
SO good to hear! It’s really amazing!
"I'll just leave it right here cuz we're just going a couple steps" Proceeds to walk an eternity away from her bag lol. Where you shoot must have zero crime. In most places if you went far from your belongings for even 5 minutes, you'd never see them again. Great vid, though. It was great seeing you interact with Jasmine. You genuinely seem to love shooting and that's great to see. Great stuff.
Hahaha, such a terrible habit of mine! Thanks for watching!
I lived in Fredericksburg for a while , if you ever need an assistant on weekends let me know.
It's interesting that you're shooting in front of houses, because it's Charleston. Here in San Diego people always go to the park or lake or beach. I like to take pictures of houses, so I think this is neat. Just not something I've seen. I'm still watching, now you're at the beach! lol
Omg, thank you.
I love watching you during your session, it is such entertaining and we learn so much from you! thank you!
Thanks so much for watching! Grateful to have you tuning in!
What lens are you using?
I tend to swap between the 50mm 1.2 and 85mm 1.2!
Incorporating yourself can be more difficult as you age because you feel like seniors dont want a photographer that is more like their mother or even older than their mom. Lol.
Do you record a new video for every inquiry??
I do!
@@HopeTaylor oh my gosh how?! 🤯 have you ever shown the BTS from one of these?
Are you shooting in raw? I am not a pro, but I still do the jpeg thing and have had no problems with it. Guess what I am asking is I understand that you can get more latitude editing in raw, but if you try to nail the exposure in camera as much as possible, is raw still worth all the space it eats up?
JPEGs can definitely be used if you get the look you're going for in camera. Raws do offer more latitude for editing but if you're just posting to socials JPEGs will work.
I personally still recommend shooting in RAW! You could even shoot in something like mRAW to have slightly smaller files but still get a little more control with editing. The quality and editing abilities of a RAW image are worth the extra storage in my opinion. We've all had those moments when a setting accidentally gets changed or light drastically changes mid-shoot and I'd rather be able to save those images!
@@HopeTaylor thanks for the recommendation, I will have to play with it and see. Appreciate the advice, love your videos! 🙂📸
As an introvert with a love for photography, I wish I could communicate as you do. Still working on the direction and talking aspect.
It definitely took SO much time for me to feel comfortable with! And, if that's not your personality - that's okay! Incorporate it into the way you market to your ideal client and you'll attract clients who prefer more laid back, soft spoken direction :)
How long are you sessions normally?
Typically 1.5-2 hours!
Thank you so much, Hope! That was of great help for me, as I have an upcoming senior boy session coming for the first time and that helped me feel much more secured! Really admire you!
How do you deal with getting asked not to take photos in the city or do you have a permit? Also, do you take landscape images as well? Love your work! :)
Permits are not required downtown Charleston! If I'm asked not to photograph in front of a specific building, I always honor that! But it's typically not an issue because the areas are so popular anyway :)
What reflector are you using please?
Here is a link: amzn.to/44T9nHG! Thanks for watching!
What a gorgeous session.
@@michelleguzmanphoto Thanks so much! Thanks for watching!
Slamming baby
Great job Hope. 1st time watcher & now Subscriber.
Can you please Share what’s your preferred metering mode? I think you didn’t mention it. Thank you!
Also. What mode do you shoot in? I have to shoot in portrait sport mode so that way the people are not blurry?
Tremendously helpful, thank you!! I feel less overwhelmed now!
