Every now and then I do a photo session for a client in which I feel like I’m truly being an artist. That’s of course why I got into this profession in the first place. But as a full-time business owner, sometimes my artistic side suffers for the sake of order fulfillment, emailing, answering phones, editing images, etc. All these tasks are necessary for me to succeed but they often prevent me from expressing my inner artist self. This session was one of those in which I felt like an artist again, shooting for myself (even if I was hired by a client). I have been experimenting with black and white conversions using Nik’s Silver Efex Pro filter (an awesome highly recommended Photoshop plugin).
Rosalyn approached me with a simple idea to photograph her with fabric draped over her body and to photograph the fabric as it fluttered in the wind. The session was one of the shorter sessions I’ve done recently but the results are stellar. Let me know your feedback on the photos. If you like what you see or want to offer suggestions for improvement, I’d LOVE to hear from you. Yes, I’m talking to YOU.
