Awhile back I heard about Lindsey Plevyak via Cheyenne Schultz and started following her work..wow, just wow.
She is super gifted and captures so much depth in her images.
Hopefully if I get back to North Carolina someday we can meet in person..
Lindsey has such a beautiful heart for the Lord, people, and photography,
and I just love how that resonates in her pictures.
Naturally I was so delighted when she agreed to do a guest interview on my blog!
Hope you all enjoy this, and be sure to go check out her site and start following her on instagram...
you won't regret it. :)
Can you tell me a little about you?
I'm 25. Originally from Baltimore, MD, but I'm in and out of Charlotte, NC a decent bit these days. :)
When did you first start taking pictures? I first started taking pictures my sophomore year of college. I took a b & w darkroom photography class for my art minor. I didn't really take it seriously until my junior year when I took a digital class-I felt like that's really when I started taking an interest in it.

What is in your camera bag? Ha nothing glamorous, that's for sure. I shoot primarily on a Canon 5 d mark II & a 50 mm lens.
I do also have a 5d classic which I love.
What fascinates you the most about photography? I think I am most captivated by it's ability to reveal so much about a person.
I think if done right, we as photographers have really rare job in preserving certain moment. You can capture a person's entire every day life through images… I don't think any other type of a career can measure something to such a capacity.

Who or what inspires you? I'm inspired most by Jeremy Cowart, Steve McCurry & Esther Havens. I feel like they are more than just photographers. They are humanitarians. They care for people. That care and concern radiates through their images and I believe that's why they are so powerful.
Do you have any tips for genuinely capturing people, or communicating with your subject when you shoot? I try my best to really capture the person in front of me. I think anyone can pose and of course, there are moments where posing and placement is necessary, but in order to create an image that truly embodies the person, sometimes that takes a little bit more dialogue, coaxing, sometimes even asking the subject to reflect on certain situations, or moment's in their own life- Often times I discover that when I am able to do that, the subject's facial tensing or natural tendencies in front of a camera will shift… You have to get the person pretty comfortable. It just takes time, intentionality and a bit of courage.
Typically, the subject will respond to your sincerity.

What has helped you narrow down your market and clientele over the last few years? Oh wow. I can honestly say I've tried to be incredibly intentional about not boxing myself in. I haven't limited myself as a wedding or lifestyle photographer, because that's not all that I do. I've photographed contract work for companies, I've photographed live bands, I have shot non profit work overseas. I try to be versatile. I don't want to limit myself.
