Aurielle ~ 4 Seasons ~ The Beauty of Spring
This is a continuation of my 4 Seasons series
i had done the winter photo and now the SPRING..
Model is a bride to be this year, Aurielle is to going to marry her
high school sweet heart, who happens to be pitching for the L.A.
Dodgers(MLB) team maybe you have heard of them, and i was lucky enough
to be their wedding photographer
with Aurielle's stunning beauty it was a natural choice to use her for
the Spring photo.
the hardest part was coming up with my own original concept and not to
copy anybody else's..
i also called on my good friend Ryan O Hicks for support to come out
if there were any thing he can help with he would gladly help.
(Thanks Ryan..!)
this shot was some what complex in concept.
i wanted motion in all my 4 Season Series Shots and this was the
challenge.
Create something beautiful, something with motion, do it not in a
studio, and in a place where all photogs probably started out in.. a
parking garage..
Being this was such a large production, we had Mother, Father, Brother
and GF helping.
Timing was the challenge, getting every body on sycn including me.. it
took about 12 shots to get the job done.
lighting was a 4 light set up.
1. Key light was AB 1600 @ 1/3 power with PLM 64 as a light mod
2. 2 Speedlights 580 EXII at full power as side kicker each in a
shoot thru umbrella
3. one 550 EX in a 28 inch westcott with green gel for the wall
background.
Model and Beth (mother) went to flower store 2 hours before to pick
out the colors and then from there were created the outfit and
lipstick followed.

thanks goes out to Aurielle, Mother, Father, Brother, GF, and Ryan.. i
could not have done this with out your help and multiple takes..

The one thing that isn't absolutely flawless in this photo is the model's expression. Everything else is perfect
