The Eyes Have it!

I have always loved the enigmatic, ethereal look of a face framed by a headwrap or scarf.  I think Rachel looks especially beautiful in this picture.  Oh, if I could turn back time. I wish I would have had the ability to capture portraits like this of my two daughters as they were growing up.  

Although Rachel is a very young girl, I think women of all ages look beautiful when captured in this simple, yet sophistocated way.   I am very proud of this portrait.  I want to do more, more, more like this. 
  

Rachel's True Colors...Beautiful Like a Rainbow!

Check out Rachel's photo session.  Remember to first PAUSE PLAYLIST MUSIC before pressing play!   She was such a great model.  It was super hot and I was sweating to death.  But, when I came home and saw these beauties of Rachel that I captured today, it made all the hard work worthwhile.  I loved every one of her images.  All the images you will see in the slideshow are as shot straight out of the camera.   I brought an arsenal of lenses but never used any other than my Nikon 35mm 1.8.  I love that versatile lens.  If you are a Nikon shooter, go get one.  Hands down, it is the best couple hundred bucks you will spend.
