 Statute at Hearst Castle
Earlier this summer I took a short weekend trip to Hearst Castle, located in the California central coast. If you’re from California chances are you have heard of it or visited the museum located near San Simeon. If you like photographing beautiful, unique architecture, this is the place. The museum is truly a castle with an indoor gold decorated pool, ancient art pieces from around the world and many, many sculptures.
I like to photograph architecture and buildings, but it was this sculpture that caught my eye. I shot this one out by the main pool. I loved the way the sky contrasted with the color of the sculpture and the facial expression she was making. It reminded me of a model posing during an actual photo shoot. I could imagine the woman who posed for this sitting while the artist worked his magic. Perhaps those who created sculptures were the photographers of their time!
If you enjoy photographing sculptures, consider visiting this place, it is beautiful place. Here is the link to their website: Hearstcastle.org But keep in mind of there photographic rules, which is one simple one: no flash photography indoors or outdoors! Yup, you heard me right, no flash even outdoors. I had to take the photo of the sculpture with available light.

 Shooting a model at the bridge
I received some sad news today, seems a model I photographed earlier in the year has retired from modeling. I did a test shoot outdoors with her then later a studio shoot. She was a joy to work with! Seems she will be focusing on college and other goals in life. I wish her best of luck.
You can see more of her from my last post in March HERE.
If you ever have the privilege of photographing models/woman, you will find a wide range of talent. From those who are difficult to work with to those that simply make your day. This model was a pleasure to photograph. New, but very professional. She was always up for all types of ideas. In this photo, she tore up her jeans…in some very risky places! But when a model goes that extra step to make the image pop, then you know you found a good one!
Image was taken outdoors, on a bridge over a dry creek. I was on the floor shooting up with with a somewhat wide angle, don’t recall what mm it was. Nikon DSLR and Nikon SB strobe.
