Just wondering how your shot went with your "unusal client" you posted about. I have an upcoming photo job with someone similar :scratch

Hi, well she kept pushing the time back and back and when we got there she was fresh out of the shower, so I shot the dogs first and we finally shot her starting at about 5 :30 and the light left us at 6:05.
I did manage to get some lovely shots of her and her dogs lying on the ground...I'll post one here in a few minutes..

this is pretty much SOOC, the focus is on the dogs, I think that helps in this case. And for once she made her smile smaller although she kept telling she couldn't do it. I also found that having her tilt her head in any pose seemed to help. I my opinion she looks lovely here. It was hard because she kept fooling around and did not get the posing even if I myself did the pose for her myself exactly how I wanted it to be, and I lost my light by this photo but I had my husband hold my speedlite with GF diffuser camera left. I am very happy with this one, whew, hope she is too!!

I understand the complexities of this image (multiple sub's and time restricts) and will accept it for what it is, based on that - It is what it is....


WTS; I'd do lunch with her!
In a HEART BEAT!!!

FWIW, I hate it when clients start changing the rules. BEING ON TIME IS IMPORTANT!!! Some just don't seem to "get" that.

Not bad, considering! I think you should be happy with it, especially given everything you were up against.

THANKS, I appreciate the understanding. Even after almost 2 hours of her doing her makeup while we shot the dogs, i almost could not get her to put the compact down once outside, and I was saying HURRY HURRY HURRY!!!!!
I am pretty darn proud of this portrait!!

Hey! I think you got enough here to work with... it's just nice to "hit it for a bit", for the last rays of light (getting a target then going for it, when it counts in the Golden Hour).

And I'm proud for ya.
