Jola was a joy to work with on this shoot, and I was and still am so incedibly pleased with the shots we got on this day. I had scouted the location beforehand- noting the plain wall and nearby park as good spots, but we had no real plan for the theme of the shoot. Jola needed some simple portfolio pieces and I was happy to be lead by her.
Usually the first 10-20 minutes of my shoots are about getting comfortable with eachothe and waarming up the camera, but with Jola this took about 5 minutes. The shots we got against the white wall were the first we took, I was surprised by how wonderfully striking they were.
Moving into the park we found a black sign that I wanted to use as a background for some simple headshots, at this point I hadn’t used my lens filte much so brought it out and did not expect the wonderful tree reflection affect. We both got very excited at seeing the shots we were getting so had lots of fun at this location too.
