Fun, impromptu shoot on Sunday with a dear friend who decided that, given it’s now September, we are now in Spooky Season and the Purple Bat Dress needed to come out.

Originally she’d booked me to do her and her husband’s anniversary shoot that day but circumstances dictated a reschedule. She kept the appointment with her makeup artist though, put on The Dress, and we went out to their back yard and did a little shoot anyway. I almost always shoot primes when doing portraits, but used this as an opportunity to play around with the 70-200mm f2.8 as a portrait lens. I admit this is not an unusual choice generally, I just don’t normally use it for this kind of shooting. :D

I’m pretty happy with the results!

Have a Spooky Season outfit you want to immortalize? Hit me up via my contact form and let’s get something on the books.

Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon 70-200mm f2.8
