This was one of those shoots that they step out of the car and I let out an audible ‘YESSSS…’. These girls were abso-freakin-lutely adorable! They are both dancers/performers so they knew how to move, pose, completely relate to the camera. Ah.. heaven ;)
The awesome Melanie was mentoring with me that day and she did such an amazing job getting her beautiful niece & friend all styled & ready for the session. Melanie, Kristin & I had such a fabulous day chatting & shooting… I think I could have kept going through to the next day! haha
Anyway, thank you ladies.. I really had the best time and feel so, so lucky to be having such amazing experiences :)
Willow: omg this is why we do what we do, that feeling when everything is just perfect and wonderful and you ask yourself "how am i going to stop?" these girls are stunning! i love the contrast in their coloring. i love the one with blondie super out of focus, almost like she is a ghost of a girl. and of course that first one, beautiful!

Have fun in Vegas. Don't disappoint with some stories;) K (02.12.2009 05:24pm)
