For an anonymous Brockit client, the full team spent a beautiful evening on the shore of Lake Superior, shooting a number of locations and primarily candid & semi-staged shots. We had just come from the body painting shoot, so this was a good change of gears (hey, we’re flexible!) and I captured almost 300 shots before whittling down to about 125. A quick note about portraits like this: capturing artistic, emotional shots is just that; emotional. You really get caught up in the feelings of your subjects and when this happens and you have the shutter release down, firing away, you just know that you got the shot. Of course, that means that the technical aspects must already be taken care of. When shooting on a beach, this gets tricky; harsh contrasts, sun, sand, wind, reflections, etc. This means reflectors, diffuser panels, and of course – assistants. Go team!
