I photographed Lindsey’s sister’s wedding last year, in which she was also her maid of honor, and was quite happy when she asked me to shoot her July wedding in Newport Beach. Lindsey and Alex came down to my studio yesterday where my assistant Chris and I got better acquainted with them over a casual chat. Afterward, we headed downtown for an urban portrait session.
Whenever I photograph people for the first time, I’m always evaluating how they respond to the camera. A critical component in creating quality portraits is the ability to loosen-up your subjects so you can capture genuine images that project their personality and relationship. Lindsey and Alex, however, were relaxed from the beginning, and their cooperative attiitude made for a creative afternoon. You could just sense the fun in these two, and we could’ve easily hung out with them all day!
