She Couldn't Believe I Picked Her Out of a Crowd

This shows what it's really like to do what I do. Most of the time, you're only seeing the best photos from the session, the ones that make the cut. But photography is a process, and I think there's something valuable about seeing the entire journey. In this video, you'll get to watch the shoot unfold in real time and see how the photos evolve (& I think improve greatly) as we both become more comfortable, settle into the moment, and build a little trust together. One of my favorite things about portrait photography is that the strongest images rarely happen in the first few frames. More often, they emerge as people relax, open up, and stop worrying about the camera. So stick around, and see what happens as the session moves along. 📸 Shot on Sony A7RV + Sony 50mm f/1.4 📍 Filmed on SE Hawthorne Blvd in Portland, Oregon 🎤 Mood: Relaxed, spontaneous ⚡ Vibe: Real process, human connection
