Sometimes you see an image and just say “Freeze”. This happen here. I was shooting in the doorway to our studio. There is a set of steps leading up from the door, and I often have models sit on the steps for a head shot.
I’d shot a couple of these and sat down next to Amanda to show her some of what I’d shot. I look up and just saw this image. I told her to not move. Pulled up the camera, zoomed it as wide as possible (35mm on my Fuji, which has a 1.5 ratio) and focused on her near eye. It was already wide open at 2.8.
This image looks really dramatic in print at 11×14.
