Meet Alexis
I met Alexis on the streets of Bethesda few days ago with her friend and instantly knew she would make terrific images - her personality and just the ways he carried herself would be great to capture on camera. She was also wearing dark glasses that added to the look with the white top and black pants. Alexis seemed like one of those folks who didn't have to try too hard to look great and grab attention. When I made my request interrupting her and her companion's stroll she seemed surprised and slightly hesitant initially but with a little encouragement from her friend she decided to jump in. On my request she removed her glasses, since I really like to ensure we can see a persons eyes in portraits. We also moved a few steps where the light was better - and then Alexis channeled her inner model to do some lovely poses and expressions with her friend looking on. What was not at all visible - till she told me and caught me my surprise was that she was actually quite nervous doing these - nothing in her poise or gaze would showed that.
Alexis is working to specialize in hair styling at her friends salon. Her favorite quality of herself was her honesty. Her interests and hobbies - are being outdoors and hanging out with friends and family. Unfortunately the notes on my phone I jotted got erased - so am relying on my memory from this encounter which actually happened couple of weeks ago. Hope I am not too far off. Her favorite memory - if I remember correctly was her time in Australia where she was for a short period of time.
Thank you Alexis for your time and trust - especially given that you were as you mentioned a little nervous- was wonderful doing these pictures. My apologies in advance if I did not accurately capture your responses. Special thanks to your friend for the support as well as the patience - and you look great together, All the very best in all that you do a- was indeed great making your acquaintance.

See, now this pic makes my previous one all that much more amusing...especially since it happened by chance. ^^
The new mall in Rotterdam is ready and in the night it provides an amazing opportunity to take a shot!

I did a couple shoot for my two friends, David and Alexis. They're so adorable together and they are soooo fun to be around! They were wanting to go for a vintage type of shoot. Which is good because I was really wanting to do that as well. I'll be uploading photos as I edit them. I'm trying to get better with editing, so feedback would be greatly appreciated!
