Faces: Alexandra

Ali was the winning bidder of a portrait session that I put up for auction at Theatre Unbound's annual fundraiser back in February, and we were finally able to put the session to use in May! I really enjoy when I get a chance to do a session with the local talent -- I miss my old theatre days, and it makes me feel like I still have a tiny foot in the theatre community. We ended up shooting in and near a buulding on the University of Minnesota campus, where the natural lighting was fantastic. I think we both had fun, in spite of the fact that it was the 2009 State History Day and there were hundreds of junior and senior high school students from across the state right in the building we were shooting in! When obstacles come along, it's all about finding a way to make it work!
