Piper Mae for The Jungle
🕑 Added 2024-10-31 20:09:28 +0000 UTCEarly spring there is a two week window in which the camellia is perfect in all of its full bloom glory...7 days with blooms on the tree, and a few following before every flower begins to bruise, and decay! If I am lucky I will get 1 or 2 cloudy days in there were it can be photographed perfectly. Bright bright saturated colors, with a lovely soft light makes for an absolutely incredible day taking photos.
Luck is not always on my side though. This die with Piper was partly cloudy, it was a lot of hurry up and wait. I'd look up towards the sun and watch the edges of clouds dance near its edge not quite covering. I'd block it off and scan the sky to see how quick the winds were blowing...hoping that the next large one would give me the light I was looking for.
With these types of shoots I could use a scrim and get good light on the model, but the logistics of a massive scrim, a generally small area of good light in my over all scene, and high unpredictable winds is even more frustrating than it is to wait and hope!
Hoping and waiting worked out though, and I got some absolutely incredible photos with Piper! I hope you enjoy them! Please let me know if you do
