Nixon shoot @ Hibernia Park

Sometimes you wake up and the birds are chirping, the sun is shining and you know it's going to be a good day. However today was not one of those days. It's overcast and gloomy. The heavens looks like they could open up without a moments notice, even though rain isn't in the forecast. It's Sunday afternoon and I'm meeting Dave, Angela and family at Hibernia park in Coatesville for a family shoot. We thought Chambers lake would make a nice back drop. I've been here a million times but this is the first time I've come for a photo shoot. I usually go here to relax and soak up the lake and walk the trails that follow the Brandywine creek. 

For the shoot I will be using my Fuji X-T2 with a rental Fujinon 56mm 1.2. The whole shoot is done in natural light lakeside. 

Washington shoot @ Longwood Gardens

Laraine and Larry contacted me about doing a shoot at Longwood Gardens. I'm always excited to shoot so I agreed. Longwood Gardens is a beautiful place. For anyone that hasn't been there, I highly recommend it for any season of the year. From the fountains, the clock tower, the conservatory, to the meadows and fireworks. There is always a beautiful display going on at Longwood. It can be difficult to shoot there at times because of the amount of people. So I had to time the shots and shoot places within the gardens that were less dense with foot traffic. It was an overcast day but nice overall. This is one of the first shoots with my Fuji X-T2. I shot the whole time with natural light while using a rented Fujinon 56mm F1.2.
