Straight {Second} Shooter.

I have some news!

A very talented photographer friend of mine, Carmen, of Carmen Cay Photography, has asked me to be her second shooter.

such. an. honor.

Even though I am working towards the long-term goal of mine to be an interior designer (did you just roll your eyes and say "duh"?), photography is a passion that I have always had and love to explore. You have probably noticed that part of me seeping out in some of my posts. For pretty much every design blog I follow, I am following a photography blog as well.

To prepare for working with a photographer, and also to try out my new lens, Carmen and I dressed my gorgeous-o friend Casey up and trotted her around down town Jax! I have a maternity shoot scheduled for next weekend and I am so thankful that I had the chance to practice.

This first post will highlight the beginning of our shoot. It took place right outside the old library.

I like these above, but Carmen was quick to point out the importance of avoiding glare on lenses. Having Casey tilt her head slightly in most instances fixed that, and it made such a big difference on the quality of the shots.

Stick around..more to come!
