Ok- so clearly it is becoming a trend that I post things a day later then I am supposed to. Here is Candice’s weekly feature from CHARLES TOWN!
Ok- I know that this Sunday morning coffee is a tad late, but, better late then never, I say! It is late, because I had a LONG and fabulous weekend of shooting in Nashville and am just now recovering. So- on to the coffee discussion.
My clients always get a kick out of the fact that I am NEVER willing to miss a shot [whether it demands that I run full speed, jump or stand on rocks or slender peices of wood] but also that I am NEVER willing to do without my 4 inch heels. So, I sacrafice. I sacrafice an occasional spill….in front of clients….in the name of fashion. So- this image is from the last day shooting in Nashville and needed to be seen in order to understand my shooting style….in more ways than one! So- I fell. In Nashville- on the very busy sidewalk of downtown. My clients were shocked. I was not. I fall….OFTEN. Kind of funny that I never learn my lesson! My last post about me shooting in Nashville was slightly deceiving, because I was wearing flats…..and I NEVER wear flats- unless I am going to the gym.
I have been shooting A LOT of seniors lately! This senior girl has such an amazing face that the light just wraps around in such a beautiful way- I had to share! ENJOY!
Ok- today, I had three shoots in Downtown Nashville. To continue the training of the self-proclaimed….”baby bellas” I had them shadow me during my shoots. To apply what they were learning, they apparently practiced shooting me…..shooting. =) We also had some down time- where I played a little and shot them….shooting- and posing….. Today, we tackled lighting, focus, interacting with the kiddos and editing! WHEW!!! It was a long day! Here are some captures of me in action, as well as Stephanie and Heather! ENJOY……ON TO DAY 3!
The above image- Stephanie took as I was shooting!
Again, Stephanie’s shot of me shooting!
Heather took the above image!
The Girls, during our break….sitting next to a random Nashville’ian playing playstation!
Stephanie took the above image of Heather!
Today we had a bella bambino boot camp in Nashville. I was continuing training with Stephanie [the future Nashville co-photographer]- and I started training with Heather- who will eventually head up the West Coast branch of Bella Bambino after her future move!!! Today, we tackled exposure…..this is one of the toughest subjects to grasp…..but these fabulous ladies had it down by the first glimpse of twilight! Here are a few images from our training session today! We had a blast! We are getting ready to close the night with some wine, nail painting and the Sex and the City MOVIE! Night!!
Just a few features of Candice’s recent senior sessions! Candice is almost fully booked for the holiday season- so please call as soon as possible if you would like to get in before Christmas!!! The Charles Town branch can be reached at 304.724.6555.
These images are from 3 recent sessions! They are all one year olds! All three ordering sessions were on the same day! I LOVE shooting this age! ENJOY!
I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited to announce that Bella Bambino will officially have a NASHVILLE NOOK!!! After consistantly shooting in Nashville 1 weekend a month for the last 6 months- and LOVING it, I have decided to officially debut my NASHVILLE BRANCH.
