The photos below are from a recent shoot I did with my friend Liz (Liz Washer Makeup Artist) and Anaise (a fellow photographer who agreed to get in front of the camera for me). The focus here was on simplicity and on a comfortable kind of beauty... we had oversized sweaters and solid seamless backgrounds to match that idea.
Anaise doesn't identify as a model, though she is gorgeous. Being in front of the camera isn't something she is even used to, like most of us! So photographing her is this dramatic, editorial style is that much more interesting. Her features, especially her eyes, are so striking.. it's hard to avoid her gaze while scrolling down!
