I recently met the “P” Family at Duke Gardens for a family portrait session. Duke Gardens is such a fantastic location for portraits – there are so many beautiful locations throughout the garden that make perfect backdrops with a wide variety of different looks.
“R” and “S” were perfect subjects – they did everything I asked without complaining – even when I lied several times about “just one more shot.” The problem with the variety of “looks” at Duke Gardens is that every time you round a curve in the path, you come across a yet another location that’s perfect for one more pose. So even after we’d finished the session and were walking back to the parking lot, we’d round a corner or walk up a hill, and the light would be idyllic and, yeah… I lied several times when telling them, “This is the last pose – I promise!”
But just look at the way their beautiful eyes reflect the light. It would take a lot more self control than I possess on a good day to stop photographing these two gorgeous kids while the light was still good.
