I Love Taking Pictures

Okay let me rephrase that... I like taking pictures. I love capturing a moment, an emotion, the real person, telling the story of a moment in time for everyone to see. I love the look on my client's face when we've finished a shoot that has been more fun than work, the glow they get from having such a good time and the anticipation that dances in their eyes as they wonder if I captured what they want to be. And the look of utter delight when they realize that I did indeed capture their spirit and they look more amazing then they ever imagined. Yes, I like taking pictures. But I love being part of the beauty and love that is life and capturing it for all the world to see.

Cocktails and Carnies

The Florida State Fair is in town. And I am sure that the first thing that pops into your mind when you see that the fair is coming to town is "Let's get dressed up in our party clothes and hit the midway!" Which is exactly what we did. Well, we being relevant. I had two great models agree to spend their evening dressed to the nines and wander around in their 10 inch heels (okay, 3 inch heels) and pose for pictures amongest the corn dogs and carnies.

We started in Cracker Country. Lindsey thought about doing some warsh the old fashion way, but soon decided against it. (Okay, so I don't know how to spell wash with an old-timey, Florida Cracker accent. Please forgive me.)



We put Megan to work in the fields. See how hard she's working?

This nice ol' boy was good enough to stop what he was doing and pose for a few picture. The "accessories" were his idea. I think they add a little something don't you? Because here in Florida we usually accessorize our evening wear with guns and whips. And good ol' Florida Boys.





We had a great time in Cracker Country. But the midway and the carnies were calling..........

Elise,

I love the pictures and the concept. Very much an ironic juxtaposition in having such beautifully dressed women with the backdrop of Cracker Country. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice Elise! Though I like them all, my favorite is the close-up of Megan. I love the background all dropped out and the treatment!
