Fashion in the Park
In the midst of all my getting ready for WPPI in Vegas, we spent the afternoon in Balboa Park for a little fashion shoot. We tested out the eyelashes that Jeffrey created - he did the hair and makeup - for another shoot that he’s doing.
I liked all the lines and tones of this scene. When I set the shot up, the back wall was lit up by the sun. By the time we started shooting, a cloud rolled in and softened up the light.
I’ve shot a few wedding ceremonies at this spot. Usually, they’re in front of the well, not on top of it. This one’s my favorite…
Jennifer, the model, was freezing at this point. I suggested that she put on 30 lbs. Guess that’s not really an option…

Thanks John for sharing! I love love your favorite too! I love the one where she’s sitting in the dome-love how she pops out from the dark/shaded background. How inspiring to see this! Great model

Hey!
I saw you shoot a few of these - I remember walking by and seeing the model on the wishing well & thinking, “Ooh, I bet that’s going to be a fun shot.” & it is! Gorgeous stuff, per ususal.
