Golden Gardens Headshot Session: Jen

I’ve been promising my friend Jen some headshots for a long, long time …  a year maybe?  So if you think it would be cool to have a photographer as a good friend, think again!  The chances of you actually benefiting from this are mighty slim, and it generally just means that you get to hang out less.

That being said, the stars aligned last week and “ehhh, I might have an hour free Wednesday afternoon” turned into a very fun and highly successful session with one of my favorite Seattle chicks in one of my favorite Seattle hang-outs, beautiful Golden Gardens.  The sun came out and I developed a new love for the 2 o’clock portrait.  Really!

Jen, thank you for your amazing patience these last 12 months, and for letting me have fun messing around with my lenses in that crazy sunshine.  And everyone else: I’ll be back in the land of the living any day soon (I’m out east doing some “shopping” right now …  those who’ve worked with me recently might know what that means …)
