I thought I might be a policewoman. I saw this role on TV in primary school and felt this job is cool because it balances justice.

The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is ___

There are so many that are good. Loosen up and let things flow. Try not to be too focused on results, enjoy the participation.

What’s the biggest misconception people have about your position?

They think always it’s just shooting nice things or pretty people. But, actually, it’s the skill of the photographer that makes those people pretty.

What fashion trend should make a comeback?

I’m more of a minimal person. Is the Bauhaus style still a trend?

What fictional place would you most like to visit?

Utopia.

What is your favorite part of your job and how does it impact the Straub mission of making Damn Good Content?

I like model sessions because I like people-work. I enjoy working with the stylist and communicating with the models to achieve the results we look for.

Anything else everyone should know about you? 

I am a collector of small little stuff. I like collecting accessories, toys, and pants. I’m a person with a million hobbies!
