Ever been asked for pro bono photography work? It's worth doing if it's not your normal thing as a photographer. Portraits are way out of my comfort zone. But natural light is not.
I had a blast with my friend's granddaughter planning what kinds of shots she wanted.
We didn't know where to start until I found a great webpage that gave us
47 Amazing Senior Portrait Ideas at Buzz Feed by a Buzz Feed staffer! She picked the ones she liked. We planned shoots around those ideas.
This is our version of the beach idea we found in the 47 Ideas article:
I picked her up at 6am and drove to the beach as the sunrise was just beginning. It was cold so we brought blankets and warm clothes for in between shots in and out of the water.
Did I mention it was cold?! She thought so too!
We ended the morning with breakfast at Friendly's. I had fun doing this with her and she loves her photos. It was an opportunity for me to grow as a photographer.
