Ashley and the Umbrellas. This image came together almost by accident. We were wrapping up a lesson at our first location when the restaurant next door flipped open a colorful mixture of umbrellas for their outdoor dining area.
We knew we had to act fast before people arrived for breakfast. Ashley posted up a nice bright smile and we rattle off a quick series of images using the umbrellas as a backdrop. The result is a delightful summer portrait with a playful essence.
This image was captured as part of our new online photography tutorial Shooting Outdoor Portraits. We focus on scouting locations, using all natural light and creating elegant compositions. If you want to learn how to take your outdoor portrait photography to the next level, this is the course for you.
