Britt of Vermont Linen Co

I’m doing a thing. I’m learning a new skill. Beyond the making, behind the scenes, amongst everything else, one more thing I just have to learn.

Taking pictures with a real, bona fide, non-phone camera.

Disclaimer | I did not take this picture @kimklassen did. And after several classes, lots of instruction, and so much kindness, I just have to share her with you all!

If you are a creative, hustling your own little business. And you’re wishing you could elevate your imagery game. She is your person. Perfect instruction, beautiful energy, and tons of knowledge. Knowledge that goes beyond the camera, things that will help you in your everyday life that you can’t believe you ever lived without (@milanote).

My end goal here is to be able to create a bit of video. To tell the story of our linens mostly, in an effortless, everyday sort of way. I’m a self-taught iPhone picture taker. Crank that exposure, just discovered contrast like a year ago I’m ready to move up a grade.

I find these kinds of endeavors to be sort of a creative outlet within the workings of the business. When my fingers can’t sew anymore I tend to pick up the camera (or go into the kitchen)… and I’m excited to push myself to learn a bit more about how real images are captured.

So, @kimklassen. She’s the best. Let me know if you’re in my boat, wishing you could do the thing, with the fancy camera. I’ll get you in touch. It’s worth it .
