What to do during a Blizzard as a Photographer when you don’t want to go out in the storm?

…. to find someone to model for you.

During the strong blizzard ( NY Times Article ) we had to stay the entire day inside and I took the time to test some new lighting techniques I learned in a course before.

My husband was not very happy to be in front of my camera again, but he was lucky as I met my new wonderful neighbor family when checking the snow accumulation on our roof deck. We made an appointment for a family session two hours later.

What a great time we had together !!

I was really able to apply the new lighting approach and created some wonderful family memories for my neighbors, so it was a win-win and the time during the storm passed by very fast.
