The Fox Experience is one of a kind! From checking out my blog, you can see that all my seniors are wearing the cutest outfits and ones that flatter their figure to make them look like a million bucks! I LOVE fashion and since I work with 150 high school seniors everyday, I am always aware of the latest fashions and trends. This knowledge really helps me stylize my shoots to create the perfect look for every client.
When I was on my shoot with the fabulous Darcy, her dad was kind enough to snap a bunch of shots of us. I never knew he was even taking pictures! But I think these photos are a great example of what a typical photo shoot with Amber Fox Photographer looks like and how I work closely with my client to bring the perfect outfits to create the best experience possible.
The photo shoot began long before I actually first saw Darcy. Before meeting up with me, she was at Salon Lujon getting all dolled up by the fabulous Miriam and Heather. Once she arrived she brought out a laundry basket filled with clothes and shoes. Before the shoot, we chit chatted over Facebook about the sort of look we were going for and what type of clothes would best work, so I had a good idea of what we had to work with. I was thrilled with the final selection of outfits!
We then moved all around the awesome locations of the rustic farm. This location was littered with really cool props and backdrops. We started on the old dilapidated tractor, which was awesome! As you can see in this shot of us, Darcy is wearing a brown sweater dress. We picked this particular outfit, because I felt the colors went really well with the rusty oranges and browns of the tractor.
We then headed over to the broken down Chevy truck. The truck was a teal blue, Darcy’s favorite color. So her blue dress, accented by a trendy fur jacket was the perfect compliment to the old truck.
One of the things my clients tell me time and time again is how I always seem to get myself into crazy positions. I have done yoga since I was a small child, so my yogi skills seem to show up while I photograph people. This particular pose, is nothing too hard, but it still illustrates how I am willing to get dirty.
We then headed over to where I had Darcy’s dad, Bob, park his vintage Thunderbird. The car is fancy, so I thought that her outfit should match. The silky dress was a perfect combo.
The fourth and final outfit change was into a gorgeous skirt and tank como accented by cowgirl boots. I wanted to spend the last part of our shoot with the horses and in the arena when the light was just about to disappear and would provide lots of yummy light to play with. But I knew there would be lots of mud involved, so I made sure my client wore boots and myself as well, so we would not slip and fall.
We ended the shoot just walking around the barn and getting lots of fun shots with the perfect backdrop of color. Her outfit was still perfect for the rustic location.
Darcy and I had a great time working together. I simply love this young woman. From the photos, I am sure you can tell how comfortable she is with me and I with her. Thanks Bob for documenting us having a blast! And for all the future clients reading this, I look forward to working with you and your closet.
