Why interview Elizabeth of “Simply You Photography:

Liz Larson, Simply You Photography

The decision to interview Elizabeth, affectionately known as “Grandma Liz” by my kids, stems from a unique and mutually beneficial opportunity. As their beloved grandmother and an aspiring family and children photographer, Liz exudes warmth, politeness, and a genuine passion for her craft. Her budding business is fueled by great ideals, making our conversation an opportunity to showcase her talent and support her journey in the photography world. This collaboration becomes a win-win scenario, as featuring her on my channels helps increase visibility for her budding venture while I, in turn, gain valuable and engaging content. It’s a delightful partnership that highlights the power of collaboration in both personal and professional spheres.

A bit about Elizabeth of Simply You Photography:
Elizabeth Larson, professionally known as Liz, is the creative force behind Simply You Photography. With a sincere passion for family and children photography, Liz employs various behind-the-scenes tactics to capture authentic moments and stills. Her dedication to families goes beyond the typical photographer-client relationship—Liz generously provides clients with numerous photos, allowing them to personally curate their favorites from the comprehensive collection. In her “Mini shoots,” Liz takes a refreshing approach by lifting restrictions, offering clients a generous and unrestricted experience. As she continues to make her mark in the photography world, Elizabeth Larson emerges as a skilled photographer and a compassionate artist dedicated to preserving timeless moments for families.

Excerpts from the episode:

She wears many hats and does them well.
She’s the first family and children photographer we’ve had on the show.
So that’s just as exciting as our conversation today.”

Host: “Embracing the Fall Aesthetic:
Maine’s fall colors are known for their vibrancy.
How do you incorporate seasonal beauty into your photography?
And what do you love most about capturing moments during this time?

Liz: I mean, I know there’s a lot to love about it. Fall time is my absolute favorite period. It gets this time of the year, and I’m a different person. I don’t like the summertime at all.
It’s too hot, cranky.
I’d much rather be cold.

Liz: It’s my absolute favorite time here in the photography world.
We live for several things—one of those things being fall foliage.
You throw in a golden hour with some fall colors; we’ll climb just about anything for that perfect shot. The colors really pop. Everything just seems to go smoother.
Nine times out of ten, family holidays are right around the corner.
It’s just how cool is it that you get to be a part of that memory with each family for that shoot for their whole entire life.“
