In my 25+ years as a photographer, I’ve never before had the opportunity to make portraits of a female firefighter. Arizona is a dry place and we’re enormously grateful to the firefighters, hotshot crews and Wildland Fire Managers who keep us safe. It was incredibly fun to make portraits of Katie in some of her firefighting gear, both during pregnancy and merely a week and a half later with newborn Ms. personality-plus in her arms. Katie doesn’t prefer to be the center of attention but her husband and I loved these portraits documenting the huge changes in their family in such a short window of time.
Before AfterWhat a difference 11 days make! I LOVE the thoughtful finger-pointing.
Here’s some more expert finger-pointing, six months later. I’m thinking that this is her evolving personal style. Nobody does it better. 🙂
