Let there be light

Published by The Dreamstress

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.

Pet-en-l’aire magnificence

I still can’t get over how many good shots Theresa and I got from our photoshoot at the old Dominion Museum, and how spectacular Theresa looks in all of them. Her face just changes from frame to frame, meaning that I ended up with dozens of photos with almost the same pose, but, oh, what a different mood! Hehe. Do you see it? All of these photos were taken from the balcony around the entrance hall of the old Dominion Museum.  It’s such a great place to shoot – with balconies on both sides, you can get every angle, and lots of different kinds of light. I love how you can see the details of the side-pleat in these photos The only problem with these is her face is so amazing you hardly notice the outfit!

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).
