My first professional photo shoot changed my life, and I can change yours, too.    Hi.  I am Joni Hough…owner and chief photographer at Mint Hill Photography. 

Professional photography hasn’t always been my passion.  I have tried a number of careers, from barista to art teacher to health coach, even getting several degrees along the way.   Still, nothing fit me well enough for me to see my future in it.    

Growing up,  I used to spend hours playing dress-up and posing in front of my mirror, dreaming of what I could be, until the pressure to look a certain way took that joy away.  I lost my confidence, and I stopped dreaming.  It just slipped away without me really noticing it.   

During my professional shoot, I began to come alive again. The camera showed me what I could not see.   I saw myself in a whole new light, and I found a whole new level of confidence.    I can give you that same experience.  You will see yourself as you want to be seen; you will leave with a level of confidence new to you.  Isn’t it time for you to let your light shine?   Mint Hill Photography is here to showcase you as you want to be seen.
