After
returning from the Cardston Hoodoos, I disappeared to the basement of
Annie's house to change film, and prepare for the evening's session.
Victoria stayed upstairs, and when I returned, was modelling for one of
the other photographers. Working indoors with available light, he had
set up a small studio in the dining area, with Victoria up on the table,
against a black backdrop.

In
the middle of this session, Victoria took a break, sitting on a chair
against the window to relax - and the light was stunning. Immediately, I
made an image on my 35mm camera, unsure if I would be able to recreate
the moment later for my view camera.

Luck
was with me, however, and when the session with the other photographer
was done, I asked Victoria to retake the poses, and made a series of
portraits of her in the chair. The resulting images very successfully
capture the light and elegance which stopped me cold when I first beheld
Victoria posing on the chair.
