Weekly Portrait #17 – “People I now know” (Working Title) – Miranda

Weekly Portrait #17 – “People I now know” (Working Title) – Miranda

So I had already planned to photograph Miranda in the oil seed flowers 3 or 4 days before the tragic news of Prince’s death, we decided that we needed to twist the theme just a little in his honour, so in came purple – dress (originally blue!) pashmina, scarf and paisley shirt – and then we found out Dan’s new hotrod has a purple interior! A nod to the little genius. Loads of shout outs on this one, thanks to Xen for the scarf, Kylie for the pashmina, Roy for the shirt (not sure how much he knew), Duncan for making sure my strobes did not take flight and Dan for your awesome ’36 Ford Hotrod. And thank you so much to Miranda who managed to not get hyperthermia even though the rest of us had at least 3 more layers of clothing on!

Drop me a message if you’d be interested in being a sitter/victim.

For those of you who missed my other instalments or are new to my site, I have set a challenge of shooting a self-initiated portrait every week for this year. You can find them here My Diary. It’s a deliberately broad brief started under the working title of “People I know” already renamed “People I now know” I’m looking forward to the journey, not knowing the destination.

I’d also like to hear your thoughts, please comment on my Facebook Page here:RupertBarker Photographer on Facebook
