Working With Bailey in Fall Color

I was a bit worried that we would not have any fall color this year, mainly due to a lack of good steady rainfall this summer. We finally received some good rain by the middle of October and then our colors began to pop…it only lasted a couple of weeks and into the first of November, but along with warm weather and we were glad to see both. I dont always get a chance to find and photograph a model in the fall color, seems when the colors roll around, models disappear, but this year I lucked out and was able to work with a hot new guy named Bailey. He came down one day and I was able to photograph him along the river at a friends farm,…

Bailey I found out, was one very nice guy to work with and I look forward to the next shoot with him as well. 🙂

Josh at Grand Falls

Continuing on with the Joplin shoots, Josh was with me when I went to photograph Christopher at one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Missouri….
