Foxes in Twilight

My final post of images from my time spent in Vancouver are of some photos I took of my beautiful friend Kristi. Her boyfriend David had been wanting to photograph her that evening, and after our wonderful makeup artist friend Megan worked her magic with Krsiti, David asked me if I wanted to shoot alongside him. Of course I jumped at the opportunity, and we walked down to the beach and took some pretty photos in the blue evening light.

Lindsay Anne

I've been so excited to post these images for a while now. I was lucky enough to meet one of my long-time photography inspirations and sweet friend Lindsay Anne Dransfield while in Vancouver in August. This girl is truly as kind as she is beautiful, and I felt like we clicked immediately. I knew I had to do a shoot with her, and her flowing red hair gave me the idea to do a mermaid-on-land themed shoot.
The talented Megan Wilson of Megan Wilson Photography applied the makeup for this shoot, and I couldn't have asked for better artistry. Thank you my dear, you did a stunning job!
Below are some of my favorite images from our time together. What a dream Lindsay Anne is!







My very helpful assistant David knew that I wanted to incorporate a starfish into the shoot somehow, so about halfway through the shoot, he walks over holding a live starfish right out of the bay! It was so beautiful, while at the same time incredibly fascinating. 
*Thank you for putting this adorable thing on you, Lindsay Anne, even though it was sucking on your skin*






We took to the docks as the sun began to dip in the distance, and the light that hit the water was beyond magical. I told Lindsay Anne to sit at the edge of the dock, and I used those light rays for all that they had left.



Lindsay Anne is nothing short of the queen of lifestyle photography, and I learned that she's an incredible model as well! If you haven't seen her work, I urge you to go look immediately. You will not be disappointed. 
Thank you again for being the perfect model for these photos, L.A. I miss you bunches <3

Michelle

I'm ready to start uploading more images from Flickr Island just over a month ago! I've got a lot of beautiful photos that I am so excited to share, and I wanted to start with these lovelies of Michelle Ellis during the meet up. 
This girl is beyond stunning, and she made the perfect model for those of us shooting her. If you haven't already seen her work, you should definitely go do that. She's so talented!

The first set of images I shot on the side of Van Gachnang in a forest in Vancouver. The light was so perfect and all the greens made for the most magical setting!











I also shot with Michelle in the evening at Alouette Lake in British Columbia, and I loved the photos I got from there! The bright blue hues of the calm water surrounded by looming mountains is the most gorgeous setting. It's one of my favorite places in the world.



Thank you for capturing these behind-the-scenes photos of me shooting with Michelle, David!










Thank you for making the world a more beautiful place, Michelle :)
