Faern has a wonderful, creative energy. She has taken beautiful photos of me while fire dancing and hula hooping. I am always very comfortable in front of her and her lens and I have been impressed with the results.
Faern moves gracefully through the shoot, capturing each moment and creating photos with the depth and emotion that make each viewer feel like they have entered that moment in time. She elegantly captured light, color and textures in each shot. Faern produced photos of our family that truly took our breath away.
I had seen Faern out taking photos at a number of events in San Francisco over the course of a year or so, and always appreciated her work. She always seems to capture angels that no one else is looking for; when there’s a pile of photographers all lined up in one spot at the center of the stage, Faern will be off to the side, or underneath, or above, and the resulting photographs are often more candid because the subjects are unaware of her position.
After awhile of enjoying her work, I approached Faern to do a private shoot. She was extremely flexible and creative in the discussion of what/where/when, and we ended up wandering the city together in search of photographic locations. While shooting, she’s directive but not overbearing. She takes into consideration all kinds of small details – the light, the shadows, the alignment of objects in the background, the textures, the palate of colors in the scene, but doesn’t take forever in figuring out the shot. I was extremely pleased with how my photos turned out, and she processed them quickly and without any hassle.
I would recommend Faern for any kind of project, from performance art to portraiture to weddings to fashion to documentary. Her photos are elegant yet striking, and she’s absolutely wonderful to work with.
Faern is a talented artist.
Her ability to capture the essence of a moment is unique. She has a playful spirit and a truly skillful eye. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her. Faern is open to your ideas and has an ability to direct a photoshoot in a way that will allow your true spirit to shine. I look forward to working with her again. I know that our future projects will be fun experiences and produce high quality results.
with love,
