Dorian :: Fun Portraits!!

Rebecca Whitney — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:46:12 +0000

A little while ago I went out with my wonderful friend Dorian to take some photos of each other for our respective profile photos and blogs and websites! We had SUCH a fun time, and found some amazing fields and a muddy dirt road and we played in the wheat, it was so fabulous! It was a little cold but not too bad, and there were some super cool gray skies that we loved. Dorian recently started her own photography business, she’s specializing in newborns and also loves doing family, children and maternity sessions. You can check her blog out HERE!

I’m keeping this short cause 1) I already typed this once and it got erased, and 2) I have so so so so so much to do and am more than just a little stressed!! I had such a great time hanging out with Dorian and I can’t wait for our next photo exploration!!

Dorian has THE BEST smile and laugh!! I know she doesn’t love her big smile but it’s so her and makes me so happy seeing it and she’s so gorgeous!!! These first two photos are two of my favorites!!

LOVE!!

Dorian is always so stylish!! I need to take lessons from her!!

I love this next one!!

I LOVE this next portrait, so pretty and colorful and Dorian looks so beautiful (as always!)!

This next one is I think my favorite from the whole shoot, there’s something about it I love so much – the feeling of it, so peaceful and dreamy!

And finally a silly one for the last one, so cute and funny!!!

Daphne and her GSX!

I’m so excited about these photos!! I’ve never done anything like this before so it was so much fun!

Daphne is Chris’s sister and she bid on and won the shoot I donated to Chris and Heather’s social, which made me so happy! She knew immediately that she wanted a shoot with her motorcycle, she absolutely loves riding and loves her fabulous GSX! We met before the shoot and went over lots of ideas, and Daphne had a bunch of poses that she’d found which was so cool and so helpful. And during the shoot I had so much fun!! Daphne is so super cool and also so fun and nice and unique and gorgeous, and it was just a great time and I absolutely love so many of the photos!!!

Thank you SO MUCH Daphne for this fabulous opportunity!!! I had such a wonderful time and you’re now my new favorite model!!! Here are a bunch of my favorites and I’ll get you the rest soon!

I love how fun and cute this first one is!!

Cute cute cute!!

Hot! And I LOVE LOVE LOVE her fun helmet!!

I think these next two are my favorites!!

Okay this one, too!

I love these next two, too!

These are so cute!!

I love this one, too, so cool!!

And a final portrait just of the bike!!

Laurel

My third shoot last Saturday was with Laurel, who is fourteen years old, in 9th grade, and my friend Lori’s daughter. Laurel is one of the coolest high schoolers I can remember meeting, she’s self-assured, confident, fun, laid-back, and a bit tomboyish (she climbed a tree for me!). I remember myself at her age and I wish I would have had just a tiny bit of her confidence! She and her mom are so funny together, too – they tease each other and laugh and have fun. I’m so glad I’ve met and gotten to know them both better!!!

I love how Laurel’s photos turned out, and I had a really hard time choosing which ones to post. I love how her personality shines through so many of them. And the last one makes me laugh – we were doing some shots of Lori and Laurel holding hands, and then Laurel won the race of kicking the other in the bum!

Milan’s 16th Birthday Party, Post 3

Here is the final batch of photos from Milan’s birthday party! Near the end, Milan’s older sister, Tay (named after a river in Scotland, how cool!!) and her friend came so I took some photos of them, and then I pulled Dea in an alley for some quick portraits of her as well!

It was such a great day, and thank you to Dea, Milan and all the girls for being so wonderful and fun!!

Milan’s 16th Birthday Party, Post 2

Here are the first part of the individual portraits of Milan and her friends – I’ll put the rest in a separate post because I already have so many photos in this post! All the girls looked so pretty and it was so much fun taking them each off by themselves to get great individual photos! The Exchange District is so wonderful for this stuff as well, with all the different brick walls and colorful graffiti!!

I don’t remember all the girls’ names, I’m sorry! But first up here is Milan, the birthday girl! And then her little sister Vienna, who is almost 14 – and I love the photos of them together as well!!

I caught Dea doing a little touch-up on the girls’ makeup!

A little while ago I photographed Milan and eight of her friends for Milan’s birthday (which was actually earlier, but they were celebrating it after school began). Milan’s mom, Dea, is a freelance makeup artist, so she did the makeup for all the girls and then we headed out to the Exchange District for a fun model-type shoot! We took a lot of group shots and I also took each girl off by herself for some individual portraits. It was such a fun day, and the girls were all so beautiful and full of energy, and there are so many great shots! I’m almost done with all the photos but still need to do some choosing, but I wanted to post some photos so here’s a sampling of the various group shots. I’ll post some of the individual shots in a couple days.

I’m second shooting at a wedding with Curtis tomorrow (today) in Gimli, I’m excited to see all these areas that I’ve never been! And hopefully the rain holds off a little!!

This was the scene when I came back with one of the girls, and they spotted me pointing my camera!
