A New Year's Day Morning with Monique

Digital original

Monique was visiting Halifax for the holidays, and asked if I'd be interested in a short session on New Year's day. Never one to pass up the chance to photograph, Is set everything up, and early in the morning of the first day of the New Year, Monique arrived, and we proceeded to make a series of images on my couch covered with the white sheets.

Almost every image from this series was portrait focused, but the above, with such an interesting placement of Moniques hand, really stood out from the rest. There is no denying my preference for working outdoors, but when I can produce images like these, I can't deny the appeal of working in such a simple, minimalistic setting.
