When parents ask what a senior session with us is like, I often struggle to verbalize that the adventure and the excitement is essential to the creative process.
I often describe myself as a “dog chasing a squirrel” when working. Why? Because sometimes I see something and 🤯. I have to run towards it.
Much was the case with this image. We were at the end of the session walking back to the cars and I happened to turn around when I saw the light on the bricks. SQUIRRRRRREL!!!!!!!! In less than 15 seconds we had Mckenzie on the ledge and nailed this image.
Technically speaking…it’s not perfect.
However….! Her and her mom absolutely loved this image and were amazed seeing it when we shot it but it’s the story behind how we created it that sticks with them today…... EIGHT years later.
