I finished four photoshoots in the last two weeks and they were all successful. Two were headshots...one for a beautiful young actress who couldn't take a bad picture, and the other a talented established actor with a poet's face. Both were a joy to shoot. I like when there are too many choices instead of not enough! :)
I also did my first professional jewelry shoot for a woman who creates amazing and unique pieces. She needed some updates for her website and I hope I did her gorgeous work justice!
Lastly, I met a terrific couple who interviewed me for their upcoming DC wedding. We did a mini couples session and their love was tangible and fantastic. Even if they don't end up picking me as their wedding photographer, I had such a lovely time meeting nice people who love each other. And I caught a lot of that on film. That's why I do what I do and why I love it so much.
Three of the shoots were done in the cold, rainy, gray muck that has been our area lately. And somehow, it worked. The people "popped" against the bleak backdrop, and everything seemed that much sharper.
I also went to NYC for the day yesterday and while I couldn't take any shots walking around, I had fun working my "NYC from the moving car" skills. ;)
