An Evening on The Lake Bed


This week, I spent a wonderful afternoon catching up with my friend Camilla! We decided to go to Folsom Lake, which is a pitiful sight at the moment since we are going through the worst drought in many years here in California. The location we found would normally be about 50-100 ft under water. While of course, it was a saddening sight to behold, it made for an awesome location for photos! Can't complain too much about that ;)







Camilla and I are going to try and collaborate as much as we can while we're both in the area, as she is on a break from school, and I am living and working in my hometown until my trip to Iceland in May! She is the owner/operator at Inspire Me Video, and I am having her teach me about videography while I'm helping her with photography and self-portraiture! It's a pretty nice trade-off, I'd say :)







 





These red rocks were to die for. Love it!




Camilla is a wonderful artist herself, and such a beautiful girl! I'm so happy she let me take some pretty photos of her on the dry lake-bed :) I can't wait to collaborate more with her in the future!


Be sure to check out Camilla's blog post with some photos she took of me that evening, here: http://inspiremevideo.com/2014/01/23/whitneywhitney-justesen-photography/

Love Me Tender

I am SO excited to share this blog post with you all! I shot these formals for my friends Sam and Morgan, and I am so happy with how they turned out. This couple is just the most beautiful pair, and I'm so lucky they asked me to document their love for each other. I adore their style too!
Take a look at some of my favorite images from the shoot :)
