Colette fashion magazine editorial session

I recently had the opportunity to meet a very passionate and driven lady who happens to be the editor of a new fashion publication called Colette. After a few conversations we set a date for a 4 hour editorial session in South Point park. This beautiful park is set against the ocean where South Beach comes to an end. Elena our model arrived the pervious day from Orlando where she is one of the stars in Cirque du Soleil. She was an amazing model who knows how to engage the camera. I usually have to spend quite a bit of time directing the talent but in her case we just shot and shot and shot. It was intuitive and a great collaboration. 

Despite strong winds, curious observers and the sun dropping faster then I wanted, we got great images. I had never shot so many wardrobe changes in one session. I think there were around 8 in total. In fashion editorial work there is usually one or two wardrobe changes at most but we really kicked it up to another level. It was like speed shooting! 

Robyn, my assistant in life and in the field was very helpful and despite a hectic session was there right by my side to lend a hand or offer a suggestion. 

As a photographer, being diverse helps me polish my skills and provides my clients with broader options. Aside from weddings and engagements I welcome the challenge to shoot studio fashion and editorial work.
