Portrait Shoot: Sherrisse

I would like to thank Sherrisse Johnson (model) for being a trooper on this shoot. Not many models I spoke with were enthusiastic about having a shoot in an abandoned building. Thanks Sherrisse!

Saturday I met up with another photographer (Jamie Hansen from Wilmington) and model Sherrisse (also from Wilmington) at an abandoned school in Chinquapin, NC. I have been wanting to do some shots like this for a while and when scouting out the place last week there was a crew prepping for the building to be demolished. I knew then that if we wanted to shoot this location we have have to do it quickly.

Everything went extremely well with the shoot but the whole time I was wishing they wouldn't tear down this building. Yes it can be an eyesore but it can also be beautiful, at least we can say we are the last ones to shoot in that location!
