Today, I had the pleasure of photographing a former
student for her senior portrait. Working with Trish Johnson, or should I say for Trish, was also a pleasure.
Trish is a calm and steady photographer who always remains patient with me, inspires me and supports me.
I was reminded during today's shoot to do what I think I do best, and that is to shoot "free". I ditched the cumbersome tripod which freed me to be more creative. Trish moved the subject to the window, ditching the cumbersome lighting aparatus. As a result the subject has some great photos to enjoy! I'm planning on breaking
more rules and freeing myself up from all the techniques of photography, choosing to focus more on my subject.

Those came out really beautiful. It's nice to be free of some of that stuff that ties you down. It must be nice to your students grow up and finish school. Can't wait for that:)
Very nice! especially the second one.
Wow...gorgeous portraiture!!! You must have had a terrific assistant! (Ha! Ha!). Seriously...thanks for the kind remarks, but you had the great eye. I can't wait to see the rest of the images. Your "Senior" (who was also a wonderful model) will love her portraits. Great job!!!
