day two: beynac and marqueyssac
today we had a fun day teaching our group how to shoot portraits in every lighting situation. we first shot in the village, then moved around to a neighboring castle.

Hello! I found you through naomi's blog today, and Gosh. You are immensely talented. One of the best photographers I have seen in a long long time. I've been totally stalking all of your previous entries and other photos and I am simply in love.
My favorite would still have to be that stunning close up of Naomi laughing just up on this post.
You are truly wonderful, and I thank you for sharing this with all of us here on the blogosphere. Now I have yet another place to visit and feel at home and inspired when I am in a slump.
Well done you.
Much Love,

Thanks for your nice comments, everyone!
Kristina, I shot with a Canon 5d Mark II and 24-105mm f4 lens --and I was the teacher. ;)
I saw a few of these on The Rockstar Diaries. I am so jealous of all the beautiful photo shoots, the scenery and the fact all of you were in France. Naomi is gorgeous. I would love to have you shoot for my wedding/special event one day!
I just got back from vacation and am getting caught up in my blog reading:). Your pictures are absolutely beautiful.
What beautiful portraits! Gorgeous ladies and scenery too!
I so need to learn to take good portraits as well.
