Iris
Senior portraits in the cold! Iris was great to work with of course, and it was fun to explore out-the-road to find some images.
This first one was with a big lens to bring the mountains up close, and we were trying to shout at each other over the wind. We were also trying to move super quick as the temps were frigid!
Further out the road with little traffic, we were able to find this image with some off-camera lighting – this was the fav of the bunch!
Nicole, Outside
Nicole is awesome.
I had the privilege to work with her at the University during her final year of college, while she was on academic exchange from Wisconsin. It was fun to hear about, read about, and sometimes see (in person!) the adventures of her year in the Outdoor Studies Program at UAS.
For graduation, she had some some beautiful pictures of her at ocean’s-edge to send out for her announcements, complete with a purple blouse and beads of pearls. They were good looking photos, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that we should partner to make some pictures that more closely matched my picture of Nicole’s awesome outdoorsy’ness. I mean heck, she got dropped off on an icefield and hiked out 35 miles. That’s something that purple and pearls doesn’t quite communicate.
So we went out yesterday into the Juneau rain and found some great photos. Take a look for yourself…
