I was very pleased when Jael reached out to me several weeks ago. She was coming home and wanted me to create a few images for her new portfolio.
I was honored!

Location
We settled on a general location for the photo shoot very quickly. We just needed to narrow down an exact spot. When Jael suggested the bridge, I quickly agreed, since it was a unique location and would add much character to our session.
But with that location came the crazy weather Laudat is known for. Luckily, it didn’t rain… but the wind was out of control!

Despite the wind not wanting to cooperate, and the sun popping in and out from behind the clouds, the shoot went smoothly. We were done in under an hour and created images that were are both proud of!
