Little Nerd

Annie hasn’t worn what I call her “dorkies” in a long time. I love it when she wears her glasses with the white wig. She is also wearing patent leather shoes, with no socks. This is another thing I love, especially when you can see the arch and in between the toes. Been messing around with different lighting ideas as well. I like the darker tone in this particular set. 

The Set Speaks

Annie in, "The Set Speaks" To me, this is probably one of the most unusual sets I’ve done with Annie, but it flowed very nicely. A visual photographer named John Santerineross inspired the method of how the shoot was done. He said in an interview that when he is developing a set, the set speaks to him about what it needs, instead of him deciding. What he said made a lot of sense to me, and I thought I would try this method out. Again, it turned out very strange, creepy-ish, but it flowed nicely — not a whole lot of editing or retaking of poses. I probably will not do another set like this with Annie, but it is an excellent glimpse of what is to come for when Annie’s big sister comes home. 

Going Jogging

I wasn’t even aware that she had a hooded tank-top in her wardrobe. Annie took one look and said, “I want to go running!” We almost did the shoot outside but decided to do it right at the door before she went for a run. lol. The lighting was a bit difficult on this one and had to do a lot of photoshop editing. A couple shots didn’t even come out correctly and had to be deleted, unfortunately. In the last couple pics, she just got back from her run and fell backward onto the bed; tired and sweaty. 

Simple Flower

Nothing too fancy about this shoot. Annie on the bed, doing Annie things. This shirt had a little flower on it, and it reminded her of Valentine's Day when I bought her a dozen roses. She is wearing a lot of pink lately because of the order in which she wears her outfits. In this section of her wardrobe, there are a lot of pink shirts. 

Trying Yoga

This set was intended to have a completely different theme, but after removing some lighting and positioning Annie on her back, she said, “Take pictures of my feet!” Well, it is impossible for me to say ‘no’ to that. The difference in lighting created a shadow on her legs and feet, which show the curves in her arches very nicely. I can’t remember what I was doing, but she grabbed my phone and took a selfie. “Side booby,” she said. I took a couple more of her in that pose, and her smile made me melt a bit. Lol. The close up I took of her face had the same effect.
