Last weekend, I had the opportunity to take photos of my friend Hadley for her website. Hadley is working with Kate Spade this year and her website is Kate Spade themed. Her super cute website will house all of the work she will be doing with the company. That will include a fashion blog and promotional videos that embody what Kate Spade is. 

With her photos she wanted to represent who she is, while being welcoming, and showing her audience that they can trust what she has to say. Hadley wanted a mix of cute, fun photos, and elegant photos to show the many colors of Hadley Oehlert. 

When I photograph people, I prefer to use natural lighting because I think it looks beautiful when it hits the subject just right. In this photo, Hadley is sitting in a chair next to a window. It was cloudy on this day and I wasn't sure how I was going to like the lighting in this dark room, but in editing, I lightened the photo up and bit and I actually ended up really liking the light and dark contrast the cloud open window had on the photo. 




This photo of Hadley was shot standing 
next to her green Fiat. I liked the idea of
shooting next to her car because she has
a fun car that not a lot of people have, so I thought it would work well with the cute, fun photos she was going for. In this photo Hadley is wearing a fun striped Kate Spade shirt and holding her favorite Kate Spade book. I felt that a fun outfit like this one would look best in a fun setting to match it.

This is one of my personal favorite photos of Hadley. The lighting from the window it her perfectly and she looks absolutely beautiful. 




More photos will be available coming soon on her website and my Facebook page!
