I haven't posted a portrait in ages, so this month will feature one from the archives. I don't do a lot of people portraits, but sometimes the opportunity is just too good to miss out on. Sometimes it is that the person or people who are the subjects are outstandingly camera-friendly. Sometimes it is the environment or the circumstances. And sometimes it is all of the above. This was a very difficult shoot as the sun was full blazing all day, but with some adaptation that can be turned to your advantage easily enough. You just have to keep your eyes open for opportunities.
Today's lesson: Take the opportunities that life gives you. Look for them and don't miss out on them, because you may not get another chance, and at some point you will eventually be too old to do so. Make sure to take a camera with you though, because even if it doesn't pan out well it will still be an adventure, and what is an adventure without photos to help tell the story!

Hi Jonderson, this is Deanne in Kalamazoo. Where on earth did you find such an incredibly stunning model? Such perfect skin, and you made her stand out there in the sun all day didn't you, you big jerk! :) I know she doesn't work for any of the agencies in this part of the state, so where is she and who does she work for?
