I resisted the urge to come up with a month pun here since I used one last time I worked with Jessi. Winter weather has been rough this year, but finally spring seems to be winning out over the lingering cold weather. Not so much when I worked with Jessi in Nashville back in early March. I headed to Nashville for a couple days for a few shoots and to catch a Nashville Predators game (they lost unfortunately). My last shoot came with Jessi who I’d not worked with since last summer.
The weather had been rather cold the night before. Walking back to my car after the hockey game in a brisk, cold wind the night before wasn’t fun. I woke in the morning to the oddest weather. The temperatures hovered right at freezing in the early morning with patchy fog around the city. While driving to meet Jessi, I saw several places where the fog had frozen onto the trees. The result made a number of beautiful wintry scenes. Because of traffic I never found a good spot I could stop and get a photo unfortunately.
Eventually though I made it to the shoot. While we didn’t have long to work together because of time constraints, Jessi as always is wonderful and it doesn’t take long to get great work with her as you can see from these photos from our shoot. As I left the temperatures had warmed up just a bit. One tree that had been coated in ice when I’d arrived now had those same ice chunks falling off covering the ground like hail. Winter hadn’t left yet, but at least it’s grip was loosening. Later this week I should have my first outdoor shoot of the year in a week that feels very spring like at last.
As always more from the shoot available on the members site at http://members.candidvision.com/2014/03/26/gallery-jessi-june-winter-2014/.
