I had the pleasure of having Ashley in the studio last night. I wanted to play around with shooting in the new Biloxi studio at night time. I hadn't shot in it at night yet - so Ashley was willing to come over (after a full day of work) to let me shoot her in the new studio!
We used the new bronze/tin wall that my hubby and I installed last week. If you wanna see a behind the scenes of this being installed a time lapse video is on my social media sites.
I absolutely loved the strappy lingerie that Ashley wore so I just KNEW I wanted to shoot that with the new standing light on that bronze tin wall. Here are a few of my favs from that set. Let's just say that she absolutely SLAYED it.
I just love how Ashley can also give a "girl next door" look as well.
Then we decided to move to another area of the studio that we have a big window in. I wanted to play with some more contrast lighting to showcase the s-curve of her body!
Ashley was a pure joy to shoot and empowering sessions like this are exactly why I have been doing photography since 2009! Here is what Ashley had to say, in her own words, about her session with me.
Shooting with Dawn made me feel beautiful and powerful. She made me feel comfortable and was easy to follow when getting into poses. The hype she gave me after each photograph made me have even more confidence in my body. I left feeling like I gained a friend, became a model, and looked at myself with even more love for my body. I remember looking at the photographs she took during the shoot and saying "Dang, that's what I look like."
