behind-the-scenes: photographers in the studio
Last week, right after getting back from Phoenix/Key West and having half of my gear stolen by an American Airlines baggage handler in Miami, my good friend Tammy Swales came for a visit from Rochester NY via Mystic CT. In anticipation of our time together and because I was excited to shoot in my new studio space, I put out a casting call for some studio-based bridals so we could play around with the equipment and learn the space.
And boy, did we have fun!
For some of the shots with Jessica, we wanted to get her curls flying in the air, so Meg would spin the chair and then hop out of the way. It was very funny!
To my own embarrassment, I’ve taken to the tradition of doing a ridiculous portrait with one of the props from each studio shoot. You’ll remember the giant flower from the juxtaposition group shoot, for example. Well, this time Jessica’s earmuffs were just too amazing to resist. I think I might win another sexy award for this one!
