Karen Sandu on Location - Gastown Vancouver B.C. Canada

I met Karen on Model Mahem as she posted a casting call for a shoot.  We were able to get this shoot in during our busy schedules in Gastown.  Karen and her BF are very cool people to be around.  Despite the chilly night in Vancouver, both were willing to tough it out.  In the end, we convince her BF to take a few shots which I hope might inspire him to model as well.  Karen is a professional and awesome to work with on location.  I'm sure we'll be working together soon on another shoot.  All of the below was shot using a Canon 5DMK3 24-70 2.8L lens, 24' Lasolite Softbox, (2) 600rt Speedlites, and Litepanel LED video light.

Gabriella Kriss - Maternity Shoot

Hi All,

Just a few shots with Gabriella Kriss and her partner Taylor.  What an awesome couple to meet.  I met  Gabriella on ModelMayhem.  Taylor has an awesome job rigging lights for B.C. place.  Gabriella has a warm and friendly personality.  She is very professional and many photographers love working with her.  I can see why now after one session.  Just a few shots from a studio in Vancouver. Enjoy!

The two having fun on the set.  Taylor gets credit for this spontaneous creativity.
