We recently had two photo shoots back to back. One on Easter Sunday, a lovely couple from Dover, Lisa and Joe, and the other was on Monday, Dasha and Corey from the Rehoboth Beach, Lewes area.
Lisa and Joe made an interesting couple and a unique challenge. The unique and interesting part was with Joe being so tall in comparison to Lisa, and with Lisa being such a darker completion then Joe. Joe was pretty funny and goofy, in some cases it was difficult to get him serious, but he gave me a wide range of emotion that I really liked. I really got into and enjoyed photographing Lisa, with her special beauty; it is truly rare to photograph someone like her. Lisa was born in Bangladesh and has that India beauty about her. She has already invited us to fly out to her county to photograph their wedding there.
On Monday we had Dasha and Corey join us out in the studio for some fun photography. I liked shooting Dasha with her short hair and crazy Russian personality. She was bouncy and eager to try new and poses. With Corey, he was a bit shy and after while he started to open up, but I felt like he was still holding back on some of the shots. We invited him back later into the summer for another shoot, and I think he will be more comfortable with Olga and I when that day comes.
I found these days to be fun photographing in the studio, Olga and I had a chance to experiment, and I backed off from behind the camera to let her do most of the photographing. I spent most of my time working with the lighting, adjusting and trying new things. I was also in the director mode, getting the models to strike different poses and when I ran out of ideas, Olga would come up with some new ones. We had our buddy, Zach out there videotaping the Monday session of which he will splice together a fun video I’m sure for all to enjoy. On Sunday I had the video camera on a tripod and just got some video footage of Olga and I working with Lisa and Joe.
Here are some images for those two days and stay tuned for the video as its on its way.
