This past week Erin and I had the privilege to be involved with one of our favorite local photography groups! If you’re a photographer in the area you HAVE to check out the SoCal Photog Shootout group that meets every other month for a fantastic day of learning, networking, and (with the help of great vendors) shooting with awesome models. There was a gypsy theme this time and instead of our usual guy/girl combo we had one female model. So we decided to talk a lot with our group about not just finding great light but also how to pose a single subject and capture multiple looks in a short amount of time. We had a great time trying some new poses of our own too! As always, it was such a pleasure and so much fun to lead a group of great photographers and make new friends!
We had the pleasure of photographing Blayke this time and wanted to share just a handful of our favorite images.
Here is the list of everyone who came together to make this day happen, you guys are the best, thank you!
