How to describe Heather?

A journalist, check; a bicycle racer, check; a super sweet, fun-loving friend, who’s always got a smile on her face, check, check, check, check, check.

Heather came over to the studio for a session and I wanted to encompass the different aspects that make her…well, her. I borrowed a sweet J. Livingston retro rebuilt bike from Eric over at Bend Velo, grabbed some newspapers and Heather brought her ever-present smile and wardrobe. We decided to do a few some lifestyle shots and some more sports type portraits. It was a blast shooting with Heather and I am looking forward to doing it more now that the weather is getting nicer here in town.

Enjoy!

PS you might recognize Heather from my earlier Earth Day post

So what do you get when you combine a former Hawaiian Tropic swimsuit  and NASCAR model with a 13 year Tae Kwon Do veteran with a ball of energy? A really fun shoot with a very versatile model, that’s what!

Crystal decided to get back in to modeling after taking a break and contacted me about getting some updates for her portfolio. I knew after talking with her she was going to be great to work with and I wasn’t disappointed. She was totally on top of things, we worked very easily together (it didn’t hurt that we have the same taste in music…we listened to quite the mix that day) and we got some really good images for her updated portfolio.

Since we had the time, we decided to do both some fashiony portrait stuff and some action shots, the result was a mix of fun, sexy and in your face images that show the many dimensions of this versatile, beautiful model.

Enjoy
