This was a really fun shoot – but never a dull moment putting it together. I would love to go more into depth sometime about all the work that actually goes into producing a shoot, but for now I want to share a few images from an editorial I shot for my portfolio back in June. At the end of the day everything came together quite well, and the finished results are nothing short of what I had envisioned. Beautiful girls in flow-y gowns surround by forest and fog. I just adore fog. Enjoy!
