Model for Hire


As a father and photographer I'm like a cobbler with shoeless children or at least I feel like that at times. But alas! When the proper elements align themselves like a dusky sky with traces of cloud, a daughter who actually didn't have any sport practice or game for the next hour plus an inspired father/photographer (notice which one came first); the creative process evolves. After about 40 jumps on our backyard trampoline, a warmed up but yet relaxed mood from both of us, the balance of the skylight as a subdued BG, the flash and the drag of a slower shutter, to brighten and create a halo type soft edge, juxtaposed with Kristin's blend of action, a little direction on my part, and voila, the creative juices flow. Many years of practice from both of us allowed the opportunity to blend and weave the talent we each have towards our passions of expression. I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree?
