Amy Rose Welcomes our new Intern Jaime!
Melissa and I are so excited to share some big news! Amy Rose Productions has an official intern, Jaime Moehring! Jaime will be working alongside us a few days a week to gain some hands-on experience and build her photography business acumen and craft. Jaime is self-taught and has a great passion to create impactful and compelling imagery. We give a big welcome to Jaime and are looking forward to helping her grow and develop as a photographer!
Here is a little more about her story and some kick-ass photographs that she captured.
How did you get your start in photography?
I have always had a camera ever since I could remember. I would take it everywhere and just snap pictures. Over the years I have developed my own style and view of the world and I started sharing it on social media. That’s when it really opened up doors for me of making this a career. I started watching a bunch of YouTube videos of what I can do to better my photography and myself and slowly more and more people started noticing.
What are your goals as a photographer?
My goals as a photographer is to capture something that makes people feel something and then creates a domino effect. Something that makes people want to connect to nature and to wildlife and inspires people to want to help save the wildlife and landscapes. For example, my gorilla portrait I did. I wanted to capture the essence of this great gorilla and humanize it a little bit so others could relate more to it because when someone can relate to something, they tend to care about it more. So, this gorilla I edited the photo to make it look like a portrait style that one would do with a person. My end goal was to have people relate and therefore possibly care enough to care about what I care about like saving the rainforest, animals, landscapes that are threatened.
Why are you excited to be a part of the Amy Rose team?
I am excited because I feel you guys are kindred spirits and your work is amazing. I am excited to keep learning and growing as a photographer.

Lighthouse
For this image I was in Gloucester MA and really wanted to capture the lighthouses there. So, I found this lighthouse and walked out on the rocks looked back set my camera down with my small tripod I had. It was a bright sunny day when I took this picture. For my creative editing process, I uploaded the photo to Lightroom. Started doing basic edits to it and then I really wanted to capture the feel of night, so I really darkened the sky a great color blue and then I added a lighthouse light looking out into the ocean. I really liked the texture and the light and darker colors contrasting together. What I wanted to capture for this image came out exactly how I wanted it too.
