Olive @ Wilhelmina
I really loved working on this shoot. We basically just wanted to capture some of that great summer bohemian look. This was another quick shoot. Really simple looks, and nothing complicated. I also wanted to work some more with doing light leaks and some free lensing on this shoot.
I had found Olive on facebook, and I knew she would be perfect for what I had in mind. Not like this is some super crazy editorial. This was just fun creative work. Nothing crazy, super low key kind of work. It’s nice to have those kinds of shoots every once in a while to recharge the batteries.
I think any photographer knows that you can certainly get burned out quickly especially if it’s a lot of high stress gigs. They actually tak
e a lot out of you. It can be draining to come up with story lines for editorials, and then be on set for hours trying to make sure everyone on set understands your vision. Now sometimes those shoots are a breeze, but I would say more times than not, you have to end up explaining things a few times to get your team all on the same page.
A good team can make all the difference though. And I rarely work with people that I don’t love. I try and make sure that everyone I work with is, punctual, professional, and is a badass at what they do. That’s the only way to try and relieve some of the stress of a big day.
