Meet Kimberly Johnson...

Meet Kimberly Johnson... Kim is a freelance journalist specializing in Conflict and Environmental stories. We've only worked together once so far, a feature on CU-ICAR, but the piece came out fantastic... I've been posting tidbits of it now and then... so far here and here... Full story here.

Kim got married a few days ago... this is her bridal portrait. She asked me to shoot it, and despite not having shot a bride in at least 5 years, I jumped at the opportunity to help her out. Kim marches to a different drummer (a better, more talented and creative drummer)... she chose red for her dress, and her Beau chose black overalls... a cool crowd they are. Thankfully, I was able to easily talk Kim into rock-hopping through the Saluda River. A precarious balancing act, slippery rocks, very cold water, one umbrella and two strobes later, we had a really cool shot...

...and I found an awesome pro lab down in Greenville, TNT Color Lab, who did a fantastic job with the printing... it's nice to have good folks around...

Funny, haha! Was your Nike shoot a success? or was it Ni-Kee, the knockoff Jordanian brand that can't come up with anything original?
