In Studio: Theresa 40th Birthday Shoot (Bushwick, Brooklyn)

Theresa and I had a photoshoot last year with her son and his grandmother at Gantry State park in Queens.
This year she is celebrating a milestone birthday and wanted to have personal photoshoot to celebrate this time of her life. We captured these images in my private studio, in the hallways of the building, on the roof, and at a nearby park. She brought several different outfits to showcase different aspects of her vibrant personality, and was so much fun to work with!

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D750, using Nikkor 50mm and 24-85mm lenses, all individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using custom-built presets.
