Today, Ally and I ventured out into the “countryside” of my hometown to do a dramatic ANTM (America’s Next Top Model)- inspired photoshoot. Let’s be real – anyone would switch places with noted fashion photographer Nigel Barker if they could. I tried to utilize more natural light when shooting; it was mad sunny out! These photos were shot with a Canon Rebel T2i and a 55-250mm Canon lens, and then edited in Adobe Photoshop. Please do not copy, share, download or re-distribute in any way. Thank you.
This poor squirrel thought Ally killed the game and I slayed with the photography.
Do you agree?
