I knew from the very beginning that whatever kind of shoot we ended up having would not only have details, but models! After all, details are breathtaking and fun to take pictures of (hey - they don’t move! :), but you can’t get expressions, genuine interaction, or that extra “spark” without people. So bring on the models! I knew I wanted at least a few children because most of the people who attended the classes and shoot are parents, and why not learn on something you’ll actually be using? So we got our cute little models - Brynlee, Halle, and Porsha. We also wanted a teenager so we could get a few more sophisticated poses and expressions. Lucky for us, Danielle came along. She is so beautiful and sweet!







I LOVE this next one because it reminds me of a painting. I adore paintings (illustration was my first major in college), and they heavily influence my style.

In addition to our 4 rotations (the Sweets Station, the two model stations, and the detail table…post coming tomorrow….), we put out a few little things for the attendees to photograph in between stations…
