Harsh Light

Melissa Madden October 2, 2018

The sun can be really tough here in Phoenix depending on the time of day. Most times you do everything you can to avoid the tough light but sometimes you can take advantage of it. This was one of those times that it worked so well. Our lovely bride (during a session to celebrate their 5 year anniversary) was game for enduring a little bit of really hot sun for a very short while.

It’s a tough light to use to make someone look good and fortunately for us, she happens to look good with just about any light source! The hard light emphasizes texture and shape and we really liked how she looked against this wall with these colors and the light.

The Palais Garnier Opera is one of my favorite spots in Paris. Oh the stories these walls hold. I think my kids disliked the "bathroom" stories the most (or lack of bathrooms). Every European capital has at least one gorgeous Opera house and the tours are always some of the best. #palaisgarnier #operadeparis #grandhall #chandelier #operaparis #opera #topparisphoto #dametraveler #parisjetaime #visitfrance #parismonamour #hello_france #visitparis #thisisparis #paris #sheisnotlost #sheexplores #igersfrance #besttour #traveldeeper #travelwithkids #parisfrance
Happy Valentine's Day to my everythings. I couldn't love these three anymore and then I do. @keithmpitts you are my best friend, you make me laugh every single day, you make me a better person and I love you more than you will ever know. To both my girls, you are the best kids a mom could ask for, you are wise beyond your years, funny, sassy, smart, silly, incredible travelers, empathetic and have huge hearts. Not sure what I did to deserve all of this but I am the happiest woman in the world! (Ps - Gabby drew the hearts 💕) #family #happyvalentines #myloves #familyphoto #familyphotographer #newyork #diner #nyclife #familylife #myheart #mywholeworld #mykids #traveldeeper #travelafar #familytravel #summertravels
There was something about the simplicity of this that I just adore. @keithmpitts always has a camera over his shoulder so as we were walking out of our @airbnb in Paris this summer this was the first thing we saw - and as usual - I asked Keith to "please take this picture". And his response is usually "why don't you have a camera with you?" He is my encourager and I love him for it! #francophiles #france #paris #courtyard #paris #paris_focus_on #parisjetaime #parigi #paysage #picoftheday #loves_paris #gardening #plants #simplethings #traveldeeper #airbnb #homegarden #travelstoke #travelphotos #travelaroundtheworld #travelpic #travelbug #travelbook #homestyling
Great time of day for a little impromptu portrait during a couple's session. The sun was brutal and we were under a walkway - love the profile and the shadow. #portrait #portraitphotographer #desert #sunny #shadow #sony #saguaronationalpark #outdoors #photography #fotografie #menportrait  #blackandwhite #exposure #menstyle #fineartportrait #beardmen
