The essence of a photographer ShootOut is:
Two photographers, one subject, one location
In this case we were three photographers; me, Elleni Toumpas and Dijana Risteska. The subject was Steffi and the location was Cactus Country, this insane 160 acre cactus garden which is beyond epic.
The challenge this time around was to photograph a model. The three of us are all wedding photographers by day and are used to working with couples, and shooting a model was a completely different beast.
We got 5 minutes each for each location + outfit. It was sweaty, stressful, prickly and absolutely amazing. There’s nothing that takes me out of my comfort zone more than a ShootOut. It’s a rollercoaster of pushing yourself, trying new things, second guessing your creativity, playing around with all the stuff, and this time it ended up being a wee bit magical. Below you’ll find my picks from the day. Scroll down and you’ll have links to the other photographer’s stunning work. Just do it. Do it now!
