Small towns at times get a bad reputation. But I’d like to remind you of the good of living in a small town! There’s a sense of comfort in knowing everyone around you. A true community of individuals brought together as a whole, joined by a zip code and a town name. But more than that, it’s being surrounded by others who want to see you thrive! And these realtor portraits in the historic Old New Castle in Delaware are picture proof of this!

I took these realtor portraits in early spring. This is one of my favorite backdrops for photoshoots. 

I’ve taken portraits over and over in Historic Old New Castle Delaware and I have yet to tire of it. Certain locations evoke feelings of hope and rich history, and these places draw creativity in. The architecture, the cobblestones, the life that the people of the town breathe into the surroundings glimmers through the air. For this realtor, this was the perfect spot for some environmental portraits instead of traditional headshots!

Meet Amanda, another proud Delaware native!

Funny enough, Amanda and I went to dance classes together as kids and as preteens. And as fate would have it, our paths crossed again here years later. One of my biggest goals in her photoshoot (and with all my client’s photos) was to have her personality come to life through my camera.

Especially with environmental portraits, it’s important to capture these aspects so that your clients can feel like they know what it will be like to work with you! As far as this session goes, we truly captured in her portraits her bubbly and friendly personality!
