A big thanks to Shang for the referral!
I had been reading the blog of a film photographer who takes really lovely pictures of candid family moments (one of her pictures was featured on freshmilkphotos.com), and the one thing she stressed over everything else was lighting. It so happened that the weekend after that, I took on two photoshoots that both proved extremely challenging, and it had everything to do with light.
Sara and Paulsen had their photoshoot in the first week of real Boston winter – some predict the coldest winter Boston has seen in a long time. They were both such troopers for withstanding the cold with me (I felt like my fingers were going to freeze off, and Sara wasn’t even wearing gloves!). As we started at the Christian Science Museum (outdoors!) before moving quickly to the Boston Public Library for some indoor photography.
It’s a beautiful library, and it’s a shame we didn’t actually get books in the picture. Will definitely have to return sometime.
