Some words about the shots…
This was the first time that me and Charlotte have worked together and we wanted to go for something super casual.

Once again it was one of the shoots in harsh sunlight. If you’re shooting and the light is too bright for a model then there are a couple of tips I recommend to use. One is to find a shadowy area to shoot in instead. If this isn’t an option, having a reflector to block the light can help. Lastly, you can ask the model to close their eyes and then open them on the count of three. Not only is the counting technique useful in this regard, but it also slows down your shooting which is by no means a bad thing!
