Welcome to our ‘hood! I wrote recently about the faith couples have in us when we have seemingly strange ideas, and that was definitely the case with Amy and Richard this evening! Daniel and I have been wanting to shoot in our neighborhood since we moved in last fall; an up-and-coming area with remnants of ghetto-ness. This means plenty of graffiti, abandoned buildings, and lots and lots of rubble – a photographer’s paradise! Amy and Richard worked the camera like they had been doing this their whole lives. Daniel told me he barely said a word to guide them, yet they knew when to show their profiles for the silouette shots and where to face the light. This doesn’t seem fair to me… they made it too easy for him!
