Alessia and I were teamed up recently for a Visit Florida ad campaign . We have worked many times before as " Husband" and "wife" .
I always bring along a camera to shoot her during our down time . Nothing fancy , grab a bottle of wine and walk around location shooting and having a blast .
This was all at a place called Cayo Costa , a key just north of Captiva Island .
#1 is high key, but there is a band in the background. Would it make sense to edit that to white? The lighting and position are nice.
#2 I tend to avoid shooting in bright sun, but you pulled it off.
#3 My favorite. The expression seems genuine. The lighting and position are good. My screen doesn't show the whole image as it was posted, so I keep seeing it cropped just above her elboes. The original is good, but I've grown fond of the accidental crop my screen did.
#4 My second favorite. My "nit" would be the bright sun on her foot. Just because of the size of my computer screen, it would appear that cropping just below the knees seems to produce a pleasing result.

Thanks for sharing.
Yea band in background will be horizon . Was on a porch on second floor of house . No choice really but to blow out the background , which i don't really mind when its called for . On my big screen I edited it out , but sometimes on smaller screens , i'e. shoes and tablets you can still catch it .
Thanks took me a few days to recover from my squat position in order to pull it off . HA !
I thought about that but heck just left it . Figured I'd leave the sandals in .
the sunglasses are cool, the suit sexy but not too much, just cute and pure female beauty enhancement. and the empty chair a nice invite, promise for more. i imagine a husband being very happy and the relationship golden.
the third just speaks natural beauty. like granola and pure cold organic milk.
that last one is the only one i struggle with. more erotic and shallow DOF... perhaps walking into the sun would have knocked my socks off?
anyway, thanks for sharing your wonderful work. i always learn a lot in this particular forum
