TV Time – Senior Citizen Stock Photo Shoot
One of my most popular stock photo themes this year has been the series I did in August featuring active senior citizens. This past Saturday I revisited the subject with another photo shoot at a local assisted living facility. Today’s image is a quick sample from the session. Mary and Gary (the models in this image) were FANTASTIC (all caps definitely warranted!) to work with. They truly blessed my life with their eagerness to help and great senses of humor.
On the technical side, this image is my tried-and-true television setup consisting of a 14×14″ softbox placed in front of the couple. I would have liked to have removed the picture frame from the top-right corner, but I was moving fast and it was bolted to the wall. I will probably eliminate it from the final stock image in editing.
