Christmas card season is just around the corner. New modernized head shots are on the top of your to-do for business branding. Senior photos are just ahead. You want to enjoy an event without having to worry about snapping photos the whole night. The million dollar question: how do I find a photographer that suites my needs?[galleryview id= 95]Without further ado, meet the girl behind the fabulous Mimsy Studios. After watching her dad fiddle with his camera for years and investing her graduation money into one of these artistic machines, Jessica Mims became a creative victim to the love of photography. A few photography classes and film developing sessions was all it took for her to cultivate a passion and an eye for this form of art, and her fascination with this hobby soon moved her out of her accounting career into full time photography (lucky for us!).I find it very exciting that welcoming creativity into the business world is now, for the most part, highly encouraged. In this modern generation, where personality is better and modern branding is a must, this question lies at the centrality of most business plans,whether a blogger or CEO: how do we differentiate ourselves? Well, Jessica Mims asks the same thing when snapping brilliant photos of her clients, and the answer always seems to be, "capturing the individual." It makes sense since no one is like the other, right? But finding someone who can handle this notion is few and far between.[galleryview id= 97]Her photo session goal: She gets to know her clients before a shoot, so she is fully prepared to "create beautiful photos that capture their personality and specific needs." She really enjoys encompassing someone's unique beauty in unusual environments.Her favorite blog: "I love The Sartorialist. The way Scott Schuman captures portraits on the street is really inspiring. I have also recently gotten addicted to Pinterest (who hasn’t?). I love finding interesting recipes and photography ideas there."Her creative hobbies: "I really like to express my creativity through designing my own living and working space. I love mixing new and vintage items and re-making items to be uniqueI also love cooking and trying out new recipes, and I might be slightly addicted to the Food Network."Favorite restaurant:  Sevan G&G’s Mediterranean Café or Desperado’s Mexican Restaurant.Favorite shops: Lula B’s Antiques and Dolly Python.Head on over to Mimsy Studios! Better yet, if you mention LOLO Magazine, you will get 20% off your photo session. Yipee!
