Today’s post features once again, Victoria and Vlad. This time we decided to leave their little boy at home and have just a session between them two Victoria had great fun vision for this shoot: edgy, sexy, and colorful. I of course jumped on it, after all, I love it when clients wholeheartedly throw themselves into a session and let me run with it! I don’t know how long it took Victoria to also choose outfits, remember poses from our inspiration folder, but we were SO happy at how the weather turned out, but I’m so happy at how we worked hard as a team to make this happen.
After a record 3-hour (!) session, here are the best of the best. AYes, each and every one of these photos are retouched to bring out the artistic feeling that we had behind the photo. I never, ever just take photos and present them, not even people working in film would leave a shot unmanipulated. To the technical people: No preset LR actions (I don’t have Lightroom yet, so it is painstakingly done through Adobe Camera Raw and Adobe Photoshop), this is all done mostly using my own method of combining many  masking and adjustment layers as well as spot touchups. I shot all photos on 50mm or 85mm prime lenses on my D700. We were on location at MIT’s Stata Center as well as outside the ICA (Institute of Contemporary Art).
I love the colors in this one! [just Victoria]
I was going for a very industrial edit here with the iron curtains
I love this little sculptural piece that we found at MIT. The grass was amazingly green (see the full gallery for more shots on that grass)
V&V asked for a ring shot and I’d been a little tired of all the stretch-arms-out-and-show-ring photos that I’d taken with recent engagement sessions. Given their rings were fairly large, I asked them to hold their hands together and I really liked how strong Vlad comes across in this photo
Love Victoria’s shoes! She brought 3 or 4 different pairs
I like ending on a cute note
Thank you guys for your energy and your continued support of me! You are so fun to work with and thank you for continuing to push me to explore more! See more photos from the session here

Moving to the ICA… it cooled down and there was shade
