You do what we did.
We loaded up with tripod and accessories and went to downtown Rogers, AR for a long Saturday morning. And we attempted to take our OWN pictures.
This - was interesting. It meant mad dashes across streets for Sterling, cars passing just as the shutter flashed, poses that weren't meant to be poses at all...
...blue socks and white belts in places they Were Not Supposed To Be.
Just look at that handsome man! *heart eyes*
Pardon the leafy green thing here. :( Sterling wanted to remove it. But for some random reason, I thought it added to the whole effect. Well, perhaps it did - when you stood 30 feet back. But sadly, on the computer screen, it is in the way.
The wall here, folks, is the point. We loved this wall. But how to strategically use it - I fell short of ideas. In fact, in general, I was surprised at how hard it was to pose us. Perhaps doing this gave me a bit more empathy for the folks who are normally on the receiving end of my pose suggestions [orders].
It was exhausting, really. Sterling sure thought he earned his lunch that day! I don't recommend self-photoshoots as a relaxing Saturday morning kind of excursion. Looking back, though, it was fun - really fun. One of those colorful chapters tucked into our lifebook of memorable days.
Happy 6th Anniversary to US! <3
