Let there be light

During our photoshoot at the old Dominion Museum building Theresa noticed the huge stained glass windows.  I’ve posed in these windows before, with limited success (tricky, tricky lighting), but I think this series turned out much better – if only because it makes me laugh. Theresa gave very detailed directions about my face and hands.  She kept telling me to look up toward the light, and then to point “no, don’t just gesture, point!” I stood.  I looked towards the light.  I gestured. I pointed.  I tried very, very hard to keep a straight face.  Theresa said “let their be light!” and there was.

Balconies, staircases and ballrooms

I’ve been having fun editing down the pictures from my photoshoot with Theresa.  I love so many of them, and part of me wants to show you them all, but I don’t want to overwhelm you, and…uh…I’m feeling a little vain.  When I’m not feeling incredibly pleased with myself 😉 And, because I’ve finally figured out a proper gallery format (well, Emily figured it out for me, but the point is that now I have it), and I’m super excited about it, the pictures as a gallery (with a few bonus images).
