My photobuddy Annie is so resilient. She’ll visit places at unheard of times, choose themes and lie on the QEW at 4am waiting for the right light to pass by (a semi-truck). Anywho, we’re both perfectionists in our own ways. She does wicked portraiture effortlessly in seconds and has a great eye for what adds to and detracts from a great photo (fat legs, awkward craning necks, squinting eyes, any visible tension). I’m more of an exposure freak because, as I know how cameras work, they can’t intelligently determine the tonality of an object (how dark or how light a colour is supposed to be).
I’m a total newbie at shooting people so having a friend like her shows me how different…ly…skilled you have to be!
Some random shots:
Some sort of split-toning I made to evoke the ice cream (brown) and sun on her hair (dark maroon? lol)
Left to Right: Borked up double exposure, Polaroid 669 colour simulation with cyan shadow cast, last one I love the reflected light hitting the ladder and her hand really draws you in because it’s at the same focal point as the ladder
