I carried a watermelon - A Dirty Dancing Love Shoot!
I’m so excited about today’s post. I have had some amazing clients this summer who handed over the reigns and let me really get my creative juices flowing when planning their shoots. For Rob & Dayna, it all started with the idea of a 1960’s summer resort, like the one in Dirty Dancing. From there we thought, “why not take it one step further” and actually have Dayna & Rob put their own spin on some of the infamous scenes? See if you can pick some of them out. The idea was to hint at the past but also create beautiful pictures that represent Dayna & Rob today. The light was soft & buttery, these two had some moooves and I just love the nostalgic feel we captured. Dayna & Rob, I had so much fun with you guys and I hope you will enjoy these photos for years to come.
Thanks to Bonnie from A Vintage Collective for helping us pick out a summery dress for Dayna.

These are GREAT, Tara. Thanks for posting them. Knowing these two more personally than most, I know that what you captured was definitely the REAL people in front of the lens. Thanks again.
