In keeping the theme of interesting connections, Vivian happens to be a friend of Jeannie’s from the time they were 5 or something like that. I’ve known Jeannie for over 10 years, which is about how long I’ve been hearing about this girl Vivian from her.
Well, I finally got to meet Vivian and Armand and shoot their engagement session just two days after Cindy and Andre’s. It was so much fun to finally get to know someone I’ve heard so much about. Vivian and Armand are such a well balanced partners in temperament and interests. It was a great experience to get to work with their energy and chemistry, and the light at the Griffith Observatory was pretty inspiring too.
(Yes, that pair of full length portraits (#14) is my homage to The Sartorialist.)
A treat for this blog: Vivian’s sister, Nancy, came along for the shoot and shot some pictures of her own. I don’t often get to see pictures of me taking pictures, so it’s a bit weird, but I thought I’d share them. They put an interesting context and perspective on my images above.
that 8th shot is sick!
i love all of them, but the second to last shot is one of my favorites! and the second shot that my sister took of you on the wall is pretty cool!!
Gorgeous! Love the connection between these two. And I love the behind-the-scenes photos too!
love them! nancy took some great shots too!
just stumbled upon your site and work and love it! thanks for the inspiration!
Ok let me hear your thoughts behind the image. I have looked at it and don’t understand. I love all the other images. You are very talented Daniel!
