Do you style your own shoots? I'm wondering how...
it’s generally a mix of me and the model on styling since i’m terrible with fashion (but learning!)
As for hair stylist/make up artists I really don’t have much experience with that. The tribal shoot with Danielle my aunt who is a hairdresser did net hair and my friend the makeup. And I’ve only ever worked with two other MUAs.
But there really isn’t anything wrong...

Do you have social anxiety? how do you deal with...
I do. Have most of my life. Honesty, you just kind of have to go out there and do it anyway regardless of how scared you are. It gets easier. If I didn’t push myself I’d never leave the house.
But, I have to. So I do. I try not to let myself hold myself back. I’m a horrible self sabotager. But it does get easier the more you do it.

Me again :D Do you believe in destiny, luck, hard...
I believe it’s 90% hardwork 5% luck and 5% kindness. You get back exactly what you put in. If you work as hard as you can you’ll grow and get better and reap the benefits of it. If you submit to 20 magazines maybe a few will write back. If you take the time to network, you’ll have more paid shoots. As opposed to waiting for people to find you, go seek them out! You have to take...

when you first started your 365 did you ever get...
Gosh absolutely. That’s why my 365 failed. If I didn’t have an idea or the photo came out terrible I would be so upset. I was stressed and I started getting sick it stressed me out so much. I still count due to stubbornness but mine failed a lot time again. I upload when I can don’t when I can’t *shrugs*
It was kind of one of those “if you build it they will...

How do you feel about getty images and licensing...
Personally I would never sign with them. They do not give their photographers a fair cut of the profits (30/70) if you want to go the stock agency route I would find someone who does 50/50

What lens do you have? And what camera body do you...
I have the 50mm 1.2 with the 5d mark ii.
My lens is good at not breaking when I accidentally hit it constantly since I’m the clumsiest person on earth. (thank god for insurance.)
It auto focuses pretty darn decent. There is a bit of a problem in the dark and with really bright back lighting from the sun but then I just flip it into manual NBD.

do you always crop your photos to a certain...
Not really. I don’t really crop if I don’t expand. And if I expand I crop to whatever works best for the photo :)

rociobcardoso asked: I think I have told you this a lot of times in Facebook but anyways, I absolutely love your work. Everything is perfect. The focusing, the light, the places, the expressions in the model's face, the effects, everything. You're such a great photographer. Greetings from Argentina xx
f0reverinflight asked: Where do you find all of these fantastic abandoned places? And have you ever been caught in a place you weren't meant to be in? There are places I'd love to take pictures at but I'm afraid of getting in trouble for it. :/
mmothbreathflickers asked: where do you get your inspiration? are there any photographers in particular that you admire? ps im obsessed with your stuff its incredible
emmastonerrr-deactivated2013021 asked: Hey Sarah, I don't know if you've been featured in an art gallery before, but if you have, what are the steps I should take to get there? I have no idea where to start! Thanks so much. :)
waveitaway asked: I really love the style of your work. Everything you do is amazing. Keep up the great work :)

Sarah, do you think it's a wise choice to skip out...
It all depends on you sweetpea. Personally, it wasn’t my choice to go to school. I never liked it and couldn’t stay motivated to do the work. Do what feels right to you.
If I was to go back to school I wouldn’t get an art degree. I would get a business degree. I feel like I would benefit more from that than anything else!

I hate when I have a picture of how I want a photo...
CONSTANTLY. I find that happens most of all when I don’t completely think out a concept. If I sketch out a concept and all the little details it happens less. I think preparation is the key :)

I have the same problem. I work so much I have a hard time getting out of my backyard. You kind of just have to make time. I schedule travel days during the weekends to to meet new people and go on adventures! Then the next day, I rest :)

when you say just after sunset you mean that hour...
Pretty much yes :) I like to wait for sunset because I think the golden hour is beautiful too. So I take some shots then. Then the moment the sun hides behind the horizon is my favorite. Everything is perfect and beautiful and diffused.

Hello!,
I read your question about the WHCC...
http://www.whcc.com/resources/faq/
Q. Do you put borders on prints?
A. No, all of our prints are borderless, except proofing where borders are optional. If you would like a border, please put the border on yourself. Borders are available for proofs when ordered through ROES.
I never crop anything but I resize the prints. If I want a white border I add it in Photoshop otherwise the prints come...

how much would you charge to make the cover and...
Depends really. It’s like licensing a photo out for anything.
First, I would find out a bit more about the band or record company producing it. I would find out how many albums are anticipated being made, whether or not they want exclusive rights to the photo, if they want to use the photo for advertising, if they wanted to use the photo for merchandising, and then I’d come up with a...
