The text message from was someone I'd never met. A mutual friend had given her my information. She had just heard from the magazine editor - they needed a headshot to accompany her story, and they needed it by the next day. I could feel the desperation in her request. Could I? Would I be able to get it done?
As a designer, someone with strong artistic sensibilities, Carrie also needed an image that would reflect her style.
I was able to fit her into my schedule later that day. We met on location at the house she had just rehabbed and redesigned, honoring its heritage in the process. After a quick scout, we settled on two locations. I set up my lighting, and away we went. Within an hour we were done. At home, I sat down and spent a solid hour on a thorough edit, and was able to share her image selection with the editor for publication that evening.
