Quinceanera


Chicago Bridgeport portrait photography session

By admin - Posted on 23 April 2009

Last week, we visited the Chicago Bridgeport (60608) area for a portrait photography session and a tour of our newest photography studio location. We started the day by getting on the Metra Antioch line to Chicago at 7:12am. A few lighting video’s later, we hoped on the Orange line and arrived just after 9 in Chicago Bridgeport.
 
And as fate would dictate to us, on the walk to the studio I spotted “Happiness Delivery”. I don’t want to question the magical intent of the owners, and I cannot vouch for the quality of food or customer service itself, however I did find it interesting and fantastic to see such an inspirational beacon of hope. “This is it”, I thought to myself silently, “this is the moment when ones life takes a turn for the better. This is the point where ones career as an artist catapults into the fast track”. This is the moment where my years of hard work and patience will bring to fruition an outlet far greater than the small lake I had so much grown used to. How did I know? The Happiness Delivery beacon told me!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The area surrounding us on Halsted and 35th was amazing and full of time. All around us were people hustling around, going for walking and generally had a pretty had step of pep in their stride. Our studio was just as imagined. I can’t reveal the details just yet, you are going to have to wait for the studio warming. Given spring is upon us, a photography studio in Bridgeport warming sounds just right!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
After our final viewing, I met up with Yazmin, a local from Lincoln park. We walked about the area, stopping to pose and create a few fine art images along the way. Yazmin was so full of energy and so eager to model. Along our walking tour of the area, I spotted a gorgeous grungy and run down alley next to the church. This spot was fabulous for a modern and elegant portrait of a Quinceanera on her special Cotillion day. She danced in the alleyway, spun in a circle and run through the local park all with a smile and laughter. We ended our session together with some contemporary photos against yet another brick building. With the help of a local small business employee, we moved around a few bins to allow us to have the full alley. With the sun being overhead and a cool wind in the air, we closed the session with many great images!
