We caught up with Carolyn in D.C. on a sunlit winter afternoon last week. The sun was low in the sky, and the sublime glow provided a lovely backdrop for the shoot, casting a soft, golden glow on everything. Carolyn was the perfect model- responsive, intelligent, and beautiful. She had a wonderful sense of humor that immediately dispelled any awkwardness, and made our job so much easier.

With no clouds to diffuse the sunlight, we decided to back-light Carolyn to avoid harsh shadows and to highlight her fine hair. We set up a little picnic in the park for Carolyn, and just had her relax, read a book, and soak up the sun, while we photographed her. Meridian Hill Park was the perfect location for this particular shoot, not only because of its interesting plan, but also because of how secluded and peaceful it was. We were able to work relatively uninterrupted, and had such a great time with this shoot, that time flew by in the blink of an eye.

Thanks for the wonderful opportunity, Carolyn!
