This is my lovely friend Lucy! I was honored when she asked me to shoot a trio of looks for her fashion blog Her Haute Mess. Luckily I'm a dedicated fashion blog follower and have a natural aesthetic for unique settings and poses, but my perfectionist mind had me stressed capturing images of Lucy at such a fast pace! I also hadn't taken my digital camera out for, do I dare say...a year. So there was a slight learning curve as I cluelessly tried to operate my camera.
The afternoon of shooting around our hometown of Sonoma was a bit of a comedy session: Lucy used my VW Beetle as a dressing room and we learned that strangers can be complete creepers when trying to strike a pose.
Of the 300+ photos I shot, this little dozen was the most successful. I enjoyed capturing Lucy's bright smile, which is completely radiant!
Favorite!
I love lens flare!
