Scarf Photo Shoot This Weekend


This weekend was my first attempt at a photoshoot with a real model. My lovely college friend Alecia was kind enough to model for me. The biggest issue was finding a spot mid-day with soft shade and while the shoot went really well - a few shots didn't turn out due to some issues with my knowledge of my camera settings and 2 the spot that I picked was PERFECT light but too busy.

Anyway - for some of the shots the background felt very overpowering so I did a cutout for this shot and am wondering how you all feel about this new white barn wall? It feels like it is more usable for features being that the background is less powerful and more neutral.

What do you think?
