Little departure from all my light beauty stuff… 📷
It’d been a while since I shot portraits — felt good to roam/scout these old buildings with a camera in hand. Just enough light at sundown to keep a decent exposure without augmenting
Many thanks to my (non-IG) friends who hooked me up with gear and helped me laugh again when I needed it

Humans make so many brilliant gadgets, but we can’t hold a candle to the brilliance of nature. On our luckiest days, in our best collaborations, when we’re most in the flow, we miiiight catch a ray of sun at just the right angle…
The sun lines up perfectly with this incredible arch for only a specific window each year. DP @alexpollini not only captured but somehow elevated this epicness, and it remains among my favorite days on any set – or any beach! Hugs and 🙌 to my sweet, amazing team wading in the waves that day 🌊
Thanks, nature. ☀️
We love you.
Now let’s take care of Her so the next generation can live as fully as we have so far… 🌱🦋

If your eyes are open and you’re patient, sometimes nature just does it all for you…

That time I wanted to play with crystals and it happened to align with client needs/aesthetic… in my mind at least! 💎✨
Loved the outcome of these sparkly #lensdistortions and will repeat anywhere I can get away with it 😏

This was one of those scenes where you (i.e., mostly @alexpollini ) quickly accomplish a lot with a little. Small kitchen, no time, just get that HMI up, silk it, ok now switch lenses — oh, Jana hates coffee? Ok can she just smell it and pretend it’s appealing? We’re running out of time…
…But despite the hurry, somehow each time it works. You get the shot. Or if you don’t quite nail it, you realize in the edit that it wasn’t essential after all. In this case Alex nailed it and @jesseselwyn didn’t have a heart attack. And maybe @manderson1980 even patted us on the back — he was a great ally in that little house…

I haven’t posted during all of covid, and after some twisty turns the past year and a half, I’m realizing just how much content I’ve shot but never shared — just as my enthusiasm for sharing is returning…
⚡️
So my friends might start seeing lots of familiar frames, but it will feel good to get it all up and out in the open
