Teri Genovese Photography Blog bio picture

in a nutshell:

I am a documentarian at heart.  Observing the subtle beauty amidst everyday life, near and far, inspires me to no end.  I specialize in creating genuine portraits of childhood and families, and dream of documenting people and cultures around the world. 

I received a BA in photography from Columbia College Chicago in 2003, where I learned the traditional craft - in the darkroom.  My work has since been published in the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Parent Magazine, Los Angeles Times.com, Chicago Public Radio.com, and countless Chicago Children's Museum publications. 

I currently live and work in Grand Rapids, Michigan and travel regularly to Los Angeles, California (where my business began).  I live for yoga, hiking, weekend road trips, a good book, simplicity, and anything chocolate.  :)

 

inside all of us is LOVE..

Have you seen Where the Wild Things Are? I loved it. I saw it about a month ago and it keeps coming back to my mind. I loved the emotion, the symbolism, the imagery, and most of all, I loved when the wild things would jump into their pile and fall asleep. It is such an endearing story.

These adorable sisters recently moved here from Michigan, so their mom wanted a very stylized LA urban session, as well as some beach scenes for their holiday photographs. Ironically, the day after I saw the movie (and fell in love), I went location scouting for this shoot and stumbled upon the most perfect mural for an urban kids shoot. I was so inspired by it all, I created a unique “Wild Things” inspired tri-fold holiday card for them that I can’t wait to see in print. Here’s some of my personal favorites from our shoot:
