3 Photographers to Follow in 2021
Hello! I’m Olivia Strange, a photographer based in Columbia, MO. I just recently started my photography business and thought it would be helpful to some to share my process. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed as a new photographer. Where do you start? Technology? Technique? Inspiration? Marketing? SEO? ISO? Algorithms? Aperature? Shutter speed? Blogs? I’ve been spending a lot of time learning how to improve my technique, how to run my photography business, and how to encourage the growth of my creativity. In doing so I have found the following 3 photographers whom I not only continue to learn a lot from–but gain inspiration from as well.
#3 Jessica Kobeissi
Jessica Kobeissi is a fashion and portrait photographer based in Detroit, MI. She runs a YouTube channel in which my favorite series is “Four Photographers Shoot the Same Model”. This series has exposed me to multiple different photography styles and has been very useful in helping me hone and develop my personal style.

Marlo Miller is a photographer in Tampa, Florida. Her style leans toward editorial and she tends to shoot fashion, although she shoots events as well. She is newer to the industry and has really inspired me to keep moving forward in the business. To check out her work–click for her instagram and for her website.

#1 Daniel Inskeep and Rachel Gulotta–Mango Street Lab
I found Mango Street Lab through Marlo Miller’s socials. They were an inspiration to her and have been great role models for me. Daniel and Rachel really make an effort to educate new photographers. They have a very popular YouTube channel that I have found incredibly helpful, and they even have a Masterclass of which I have purchased and am benefitting from greatly. Their presets are fabulous and I can’t wait to treat myself and buy them. To check out their work–click for her instagram and for her website.
