Today we’d like to introduce you to Simone Herbert.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Simone. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I had an interest in photography since I was younger but never saw myself making a career from it until I moved to Atlanta two years ago. My first year I was still trying to decide what I saw myself doing for the rest of my life and only taking pictures for fun. Once year two came around I had decided to take a leap, a meeting was set up and from there I’ve been able to capture some amazing memories.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
There have definitely been some struggles. The easiest part was getting the job the hardest is keeping it. You are constantly going up against or being compared to others. There’s is always some young kid in college willing to work for next to nothing yet has the most amazing editing skills.
Please tell us about Simone A. Photography.
I’m a freelance photographer, who is known for live show photos. I also take behind the scene photos for studio session, music videos, and events. When it comes to my company, I’m most proud that I took the leap to start it in the first place. What sets me apart from others is my vibe. I’m not intrusive, yet I can get great shots.
If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
If I could have done anything differently, it would just to have had more of a fire from the start. Not have been so reserved, took more chances.
