Here I was thinking that I was done with photoshoots in 2019. But the weather decided to be uncharacteristically generous for the end of December and has given us a 50 F (10 C) day right before Christmas. So when the weather is generous, you try and take some pictures. I also only brought my 35 mm home with me for the holidays, so I felt a bit limited in the type of portrait I can take. But if I can take the majority of the shots from the shoot with Kari with the 35, I’m confident I can make it happen again. This time, I took some portraits of Jill and her friend Paula.
For this shoot, I tried for contrasting outfits – light vs dark / fluid vs rugged. In the end, I don’t think it came across that way, but we still took some nice portraits. You can’t really go wrong with some golden hour sunset vibes anyway.
Fun fact: these pictures were shot in their elementary school playground. If someone told me to take aesthetic pictures on a school playground, I probably would think that it was impossible. But in reality, I probably could have spent some more time exploring the area for more interesting shots.
