Photoshoot for Dana Farella

It makes a huge difference when your subject actually enjoys being in front of the camera!  This was the first time where I actually didn't need to make my subject feel comfortable or tell stupid jokes to try and loosen the mood.  And I think I found my new favorite thing!!  I was contacted by Dana Farella, a senior at Columbia College, graduating in May with a Fashion Design major, to take the photographs for her thesis.  She has put an insane amount of time into the three pieces (sorry Dana if that is not the correct term) that were worn for the shoot and they are crazy creative.  We went out to a forest preserve in the suburbs of Chicago and had perfect weather.  I hope you enjoy the pictures Dana and thank you for allowing me to be a part everything.  And thank you to the model and make up artist, I think I had the easiest job that day!
