Senior Style Guide’s Real Talk series brings you face-to-face with other photographers and creatives who are going through exactly the same things you are. It’s about going beyond the technical parts of photography and diving deep into what struggles have they faced, how they got to be where they are today and what they learned along the way. Hosted by Sean Brown, join us as we sit down and have conversations with photographers whose stories you’ll want to hear.

(We are seeing a lot of less curated presences and trends that were considered "old" being new again)
Your Hosts...
Lacey M. Carroll is a commercial and portrait photographer based in Northern California who is in love with colorful portraits that POP and SCROLL STOP. She specializes in Tweens, Teens, & Seniors and adds a fashionable commercial flair to all of her sessions. Working in the commercial photography field has allowed her to implement those elements into her portrait sessions to create magazine-worthy images. Her other love is creating fun and unique sets, and styling her clients from her extensive style closet collection! When she’s not behind the lens, she is on stage doing improv comedy once a week. She lives in Sacramento, Ca with her amazing husband, Kyle, her nieces Kat and Sam, their 3 dogs, and a cat. Notable commercial clients include; Amazon, Bare Republic, La Croix, Dyson, and Volition Beauty
