I'm in New Orleans tonight and although this trip was somewhat of a weather bummer, I still had a really fabulous time and we made the weekend work despite the rain. Today started really early with a gourmet breakfast at Criollo --then it was off to the middle of the French Quarter for a cemetery tour. The rain held off but once the tour started --insane cats and dogs massive crazy downpour. Yes, I had an umbrella but I had to do everything in my power to fight the wind an the rain and protect my camera, speedlight and spare lens. So basically, I was only able to cover my equipment while the rest of me --well, you guessed it...DRENCHED from head to toe. :( I had to quit the tour before ever making it to the cemetery because I couldn't risk getting my gear wet. So I headed back to the hotel with my heart broken but thankful that my camera was fine.
After a hot bath I decided to take this photographic journey on a new path --an indoor shoot! I will go more into that next week because I don't want to spoil the surprise. But here is "a portion" of one of the photos I snapped today. I know you're wondering why I'm only showing you a portion of it --well, this particular photo is going to be the October Giveaway at Through These Eyes! For now, you just get the sneak peek!
Peace, love, and beignets!
