participated in my first official photo shoot this morning…

it felt a bit odd… I have been taking pictures for years and have become more serious about it over the last few… just recently I even blogged about it for work…

but this morning, Ian McCausland was taking pictures of me…  I was the one listening to the directions to work it, turn this way, bend that arm, tilt the chin…

in front of the camera, snapped by Susan Horodyska…

I was just one of a number of people who had participated and it was quite exhilarating and frightening to be the object of the photo as opposed to being the one taking the pictures…

although, I did that as well… it was great fun to take pictures as he was taking pictures… I got a couple of great shots… I also got to drool over his space and equipment… although photographing portraits is not my main area of interest it was quite eye opening…

a wonderful example of making great use of light and space…

since beginning my blog, I have tried to include at least one photo… so here is today’s…

watching the professional at work…

was missing George tonight as I was wanting to share the experience with him…
