Beautiful Faces

What a gorgeous day it was in Coronado yesterday. Absolutely beautiful. And I was lucky enough to be able to photograph an absolutely beautiful muse named Meg. And I have to say, her lovely inner beauty is every bit as stunning as her outer beauty.
I wanted to do something a little dramatic for her portraits so I chose this gauzy lavender material with the idea of shooting through it. I knew it would be exotic and match the way I thought she would photograph. What fun. And once we began to shoot, the creative juices really began to flow.


After we finished the portrait session and with just about twenty minutes to spare of magic hour light, we hopped in the car and drove over to the beach. To my delight and surprise, we came upon a shipwrecked boat. How serendipitous! An amazing prop that I could never have dreamed up. Doesn't she look like a glamorous passenger whose just who survived one hell of a storm? This shoot was such a blast and I am so happy with the images. I hope you like them too.

  1. BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS! The first one is my favorite, and the last one with the shipwreck looks like a fake background! Unbelievable to have found that like that there!
