A Study of Subjects

Ms. Dyson uses her minor in psychology to determine how to best approach her subjects and get inside their comfort zone without having them shut her out. This ability allows her to capture the magic of the moment in her special event photography and unique portraits, providing her clients with amazing images that delight them.

She has spent a significant time in the art photography trade, going to great lengths to take pictures that capture her client’s personality and spirit. With an adventurous spirit, she’s taken photographs using a number of techniques including rappelling, skydiving, aerial photography and many more. Here are some of her wildest photo shoots:

Capturing the Magic

Ms. Dyson spent time in her undergraduate program pursuing a minor in psychology at an affiliated college. She looked into the psychology of personal space and boundaries to learn how to get inside of their comfort zone and capture the true wealth of their spirit. This allows her to get the magic of special events down on paper.

Ms. Dyson doesn’t only limit her application of psychology to the magic she captures in her photography. She’s also an avid volunteer in child abuse intervention services in her region.
