Flowers From My Garden VI ft. Caitlind Kissoon

Caitlind came by my home studio at the end of peony season to get creative with the big, fragrant blooms before their time was up. It was my first time shooting Cait and she proved to be an absolute work of art. Reflecting on the shoot in the edit one thing really struck me about the photos. The candid moments I captured while testing the light gave way to far more honest expressions than the images I overtly directed. It’s interesting to see how the directed photos are more composed, but the honesty that emerged from the candid moments makes me feel something more, and isn’t that the measure of Art? Does it make you feel something? Take a look at the posed versus candid shots from the shoot and let me know which you prefer. The above photo was posed. Below is the candid moment.
