Why you may ask? Because, like I said earlier it was a million degrees out and I love to photograph people. Little young people mostly but people just the same. Knowing that about me… I am neither cruel or a masochist; I don’t want any of us to combust in the heat.

Here is a nice easy Sunday post that happens to be informative. I had nothing to do with it of course (other than to find it and think it a good idea), but it is worth posting none the less. Time interviews have been known to be good at times so why think otherwise now. The subject is the legendary Annie Leibovitz. Sit back, relax and get to know Ms. Leibovitz a bit better.
Here is a couple after my own heart. She works in the renewable energy sector and has a past that includes activism. He works for a company that deals with the nourishment of children in need. They are both really good looking, intelligent and easy to talk to. You would think I made them up just to tell people that I actually knew them. They are all too real though and I do know them. I owe that last part to a happy clint of mine ( I love happy clients ).
Let me warn you. If the sight of a gorgeous four month girl upsets you then turn away now. The little girl I was privileged to photograph here is as sweet as sweet gets. She was so present and cooperative that it lead me to believe that modeling is an inherited genetic trait. Her mom is a model and if I am right then the explanation is easier than explaining why the sky is blue to my daughters. If not then I will give up trying to figure it out and just count her parents lucky for having such an easy going baby. With that said… look and enjoy (unless of course you heeded the earlier warning).
The paradise I referred to in the title is Paradise Valley of course. For those who don’t live in or around here (The Greater Phoenix Area) it is a nice place. A bit like Greenwich, CT with desert landscaping. The couple in question have strong ties to the area and wanted their engagement photos to reflect it’s natural beauty. I feel that has been accomplished with the added benefit of showing off how beautiful they are with a dollop of they really like each other (plus love). Not bad for a two dimensional medium without sound. What do you think?
