Every year at the fair we have a drawing for a free portrait session. Thursday we had scheduled a shoot for the winning entrant and had planned to photograph her and her fiance at the beach flying a kite. Thursday …
This afternoon was spent photographing a senior portrait. The first part was photographed with the senior sitting at a piano at a friend’s Victorian in Eureka. That part went very smoothly. The student also wanted some casual beach shots, so …
