Jessica and I have collaborated on many photo shoots. I have known her and her family for over 25 years. Her mother Christine has been an associate photographer with Hampton Roads Photography since 2007. Jessica is a dancer, dance teacher, and model. She has accepted a position with Chesapeake based Veritas Academy to establish a dance program at their new satellite campus in Shanghai, China. She will be heading up a dance program and teach leadership studios in full immersion English classes.
Any portrait shoot, especially one for a model’s portfolio, is a collaboration between the subject and the photographer. In larger shoots, others may contribute as well such as a hair and makeup artist, stylist, agent, or art director. In this case, Lindsey had an idea of the type of images she wanted. She created a Pinterest mood board so that she could share images similar to the style she was looking for. We agreed on two separate sessions. The first would be in our studio. These images would be dark and moody, including some props like a black fedora and a Japanese sword. Lindsey has a black belt in Karate, receiving the sword with her black belt.
