Alexandra and Mark—engaged!

28Aug07

There is a sense of intuition that a photographer must possess in order to go in and nail a shoot. Over half of my shoots are with clients that I have never met, and is therefore like going into a situation blindfolded . I have to intuitively make my way through the shoot based on their personalities and the way that they vibe as a couple—and all of this in just an hour of obsevation….

I arrived at Alex and Mark’s home, in the rain after a long drive in rush hour traffic and was exhausted. I had no idea what I was going to do with them, but then the intuition just kicked in and I could have stayed for hours!  They were hot! We did a few shots at their home in their backyard, but I could see a field of open space right beyond their home and I had to take them to it and get them dirty, cold and wet. I loved the shots that came out of it. Alex and Mark are a truly beautiful couple with some serious chemistry! It was a pleasure to work with them—and I hope we won’t remain strangers…

This is a very edgy shot, but in my opinion, very sexy… My “intuition” told me to get them dirty. They seemed like the kind of couple that would like a few fashionesque shots.

Alexandra is a star in front of the camera—I had to get a single shot of her on this fence before we climbed over it to the open space. Isn’t she amazing?
