    <description><![CDATA[A brand shoot produces a library of images. What happens to that library after delivery is where most of the value either gets captured or gets lost. A lot of businesses use three or four images from a shoot of 60 and leave the rest sitting in a folder. This is a practical guide to doing it differently.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Family portrait sessions have a reputation for being slightly stressful, which is understandable. You're trying to get multiple people to look good at the same time, often including children who have their own ideas about what they want to be doing. Here is what actually happens during a session with Pixel Juniper, and what you can do to make it easier.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Most brand shoots go well or badly before the photographer arrives. The preparation you do in the week before the session shapes almost everything: which spaces look good, whether the people in the photos feel comfortable, whether there's enough variety in the images to build a proper library. This guide covers the things that actually matter.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Natural light is not one thing. The light at 8am through a north-facing window is completely different from the light at 3pm through the same window, and both are different again from the light on an overcast afternoon outdoors. Understanding those differences is the single most useful thing you can learn as a photographer, or as someone commissioning portrait work.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Event photography has a reputation for producing a lot of images that look the same: people standing with drinks, a speaker at a lectern, a group photo at the end. The brief for most events is broader than that, and the images that actually get used tend to be the ones that tell a story rather than document a room.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Community projects often have good photography as an afterthought. Someone brings a phone, or a volunteer with a camera turns up for an hour. The result is a folder of images that document the fact that something happened, but don't really show what it was like. Good documentary photography does something different, and it's worth understanding what that difference is before you commission it.]]></description>
