Tiffany and Jeremy -- the tease

CI had the pleasure today of working with Tiffany and Jeremy on their engagement photos. We headed out to Eden Park and enjoyed perfect weather for the shoot! They're a fun and beautiful couple. I can't wait to do their wedding next summer. More photos to come!

Sarah and Kyle .... and Pepi

Two weekends ago, I had the pleasure of doing some unique senior portraits for these two. We split it up into two sessions, doing the majority of Sarah's pictures on Sunday during one of her horseriding competitions. She's quite impressive with Pepi, and it's clear the two have a special bond. She also shares a special bond with her boyfriend Kyle (NOT her brother ... Stay up 20 hours working night shift, go to shoot, open mouth, insert foot), who had his shots somewhere in the woods of Indian Hill. Honestly, they led me out into the middle of nowhere and I did fear just a bit for my life, but it was well worth it!

Such the gentleman, Kyle offers to carry Sarah back to the car at then end of the shoot.

They're just too cute together!

The weather was actually perfect for this shoot. As you can see by the mist, it was quite cold, but nobody got a red nose and the colors and lighting were just beautiful!

You can actually see Kyle in the bokeh at the bottom of the hill. It's a pretty shear dropoff behind Sarah, but Kyle made the descent look easy ... never mind the dirt and burrs he ended up covered in.

There's that cold again ...

One of the other girls at the competition. This girl actually had an amazing day and wound up upsetting Sarah for the season title ... but we don't talk about that. She's coming in here to plant the baton in the bucket at the end of her run.

A bonus shot of Pepi. He was thirsty.

Such a curious horse...

Allison

Another shoot in Ault Park, another Allison. But, hey, it's spelled differently! Plus, this time I had my new Canon 70-200mm F2.8L lens. The photography geeks among you know how sweet that is. :) But as always, the star of the shoot was the model. She did great work and really needed very little direction! I love a model that knows what she's doing! And she was very excited about trying out new lighting techniques with me.

Check out that intensity!

Part of the lighting experimentation ... It got crazy hard to focus once it got so dark outside. Note to self: bring a flashlight! For multiple reasons. Our walk back through the park was an adventure led by the glow of cell phones. And Allison's boyfriend made the trek barefoot. Troopers, the both of them!
