The second half of the afternoon was spent working with Krista and her
partner, Greg. The winter afternoon's light was fading, but the
opportunity to work with a couple was not to be passed up, so I changed
to higher speed film and set about seeing what would come to pass.

Usually I avoid high-speed films, preferring the more delicate tonality
of fine-grained, slow speed films. That being said, I still would
rather make the images that need making then refuse to photograph with
high-speed film, which is coarser and less detailed then I prefer. If
I'd had the choice, I would have loved to have worked with my preferred
slow-speed films, and captured the details I am used to realizing, but
the light being what it was, I reached into the camera back, and brought
out the Delta 3200 (in 120 format).

Though Greg had never modeled nude before (let alone met me previously), the session went well - I have always held that indoor sessions with couples generate their own energy, and it was certainly true of this afternoon. While I wasn't familiar with Greg, my previous work with Krista laid the groundwork for a level of comfort with her that was picked up by Greg and which flowed through the images of the session.
