I had the pleasure of capturing sisters Sarah and Rachel a few weeks ago. I posted just two shots the other day. I wanted to add a few today. Sarah and Rachel are two really amazing people and I was so delighted to spend the afternoon with them. I also had the pleasure of working with Heidi von Korff – she has an excellent eye and helped me with poses. The slightest changes make the biggest differences!

What amazing pictures! Can I ask — did you get the blown-out backgrounds through post-processing, or through exposure/lighting tricks?
Hey Christina! I do very, very minimal post-processing. So I exposed properly for Sarah and Rachel’s faces, and the backgrounds naturally blew out.
Do you have Lightroom yet? If not, you definitely should pick it up. I’ll even make a special trip to NJ to help you with shooting and post processing!
Haha, no LIghtroom yet — I’m still just barely able to figure out how to do basic things in Elements! But maybe one of these days… Especially if it means it’ll entice you up for a visit!
