Two Lovelies ~ Katie & Rosie
The other day I had the pleasure of photographing my neighbour and her good friend. I had some new backgrounds and a new lighting technique to try out so I thought I’d invite the girls around to have some fun in the studio. And of course a couple of 15 year old girls were only to happy to play models for the afternoon.
Virtually all the elements in these photos involved things I’ve had in my studio for months, some for years, yet I’ve never taken the time to use them properly. Over the past few weeks I’ve done several shoots where I have purposely stretched myself, finally taking the time to put into practice methods I’ve understood for ages but never actually used. Now that I have I can’t believe its taken me so long.
I had a great time photographing these girls. Their enthusiasm was absolutely wonderful and I don’t think I’ve seen a more polite couple girls. I’m pretty sure they enjoyed themselves too. They arrived around 12noon and with the exception of a break when they went home for dinner, they didn’t actually leave until 9pm. The longest session I’ve ever had. Of course it did include a lesson on Photoshop for them. We were all excited about seeing the finished results so I figured they might as well stay while I worked on the images.
