Grunge Tropical

After almost two months on hiatus, I'm shooting portraits again. Camilla was my first model when I started out and now that she's back from studying abroad we walked around my neighborhood half hour before sunset and I tried to get my photo mojo back. Rather pleased with the results of this mini shoot. Am trying to organize some more elaborate editorials and fingers crossed they will be happening soon.

Is there anything quite as challenging as shooting at noon in the sub-tropical sun? Not really, especially after being used to the rather feeble English sun. It was noon or bust as my model had class all afternoon. Challenge accepted. I was very worried as I couldn't actually see if I was exposing and focusing the photos correctly (stupid glare) and I kept forgetting I had my sunglasses on. Luckily, or skillfully, I did get photos I loved and didn't take much editing. Kudos to Isabella for braving the 30 degree heat in that pink jumper. It's a lovely homecoming to shooting in Colombia again and I'm looking forward to more shoots.
