Some of my favorite outings with my camera involve getting together with another photographer that I admire...it really gets the creative juices flowing! My friend Sally of Sallykate Photography was out here in Arizona this past week visiting friends and made the 3 hour drive to my neck of the woods to see me on Saturday. We took her gorgeous 11 year old daughter out and let her play dress up with my vintage dress collection (all 75-ish years old and made by my Grandma). We hit snowy mountain tops and desert wasteland all in the same day. I might not love the town I live in, but I have to admit that we have a pretty awesome variety of shooting locations all within a short driving distance of my home.

The full set can be seen on my blog (external link)!

1 {we started up in the mountains a few miles up the road from my house (yes, it was cold)...}

7 {the most dramatic landscape we have around here...started shooting just before sunset and then kept going with OCF afterwards...this led to a huge variety of colors and looks all from one spot}

8 {yes, this sunset is real...}

I still have more to edit, but this is a good sampling. My advice if you are stuck in a rut? Get together with another photographer. SO much fun! Thanks for looking!

oh my... I must move to your area.

These are ridiculously well done.

I'm guessing... eastern SoCal for the location? Not sure where else you can hit the desert and the snowy mountains in the same day (assuming you are in the US).

Really great

ooohhh.... I had a traffic ticket around there a few years back and had to go to court in Kingman.

I was in a rental car and there was no registration (but I had my rental agreement).

I faved your facebook page.. I hope to keep up with your wonderful work.

if you dont mind, do you have a location for the area in the 7th shot? ...ive been to a dry lake bed outside of henderson, nv (35.868743,-114.939022), but would love to swing by the spot you shot.

Ok...often a model that really knows what to do makes all the difference in the world. So either this 11-year-old has been modeling since she was born, or is just a freeaking (sorry, can't find any other word to articulate what I feel) natural!! The combo of location, lighting, model, poses, etc. are simply outstanding!!!

Where is that window frame? I'm down in the valley myself, but need to venture the state much, much more.

Lisa.
Once again I am amazed at your product. Besides the obvious technical skills, your ability to direct your subjects and shot composition are second to none. Just beautiful work!

Very nice, all of them. 6 and 8 are my favorites.

Nothing to add to the comments above, can only echo them. Absolutely superb portraiture in every way. Love seeing your work.
