Just bring Champagne and you’ll be on my good side.  It certainly brightens my night and especially my day.  Drinking champagne in the middle of the day for no damn reason is delicious.

Model Photography Workshops by Mary DuPrie This was the first setup at last weekends workshop.  A participant wanted to work on hard shadows so we decided to do a double shadow on purpose.  We were inspired by the Anne Fontaine Catalog.  I normally don’t go by anything but I figured why not.  Andi did her […]
