I absolutely love these portraits with Helena: great location, beautiful subject; a match made in heaven.
I was talking with her about her wardrobe and location, and we settled on Graffiti Alley in Baltimore as our location, and a little black vintage dress for the wardrobe. I just love the juxtaposition of glam and graffiti. Helena has such a great vintage look. We had a lot of fun getting to know each other that morning.
Graffiti Alley is such a great location. I love all the color, the gear gate, and that gorgeous light that fills up the alley. Helena and I met early before the commuter traffic and office workers came into the area. It was nice and quiet and we had the entire place to ourselves. Also, nice when we don't have to worry about parking!
As we were finishing up, I hung that blue plaid fabric from my trunk to get a few photos in front of.
I like finding unique locations for portrait sessions. I'd definitely recommend Graffiti Alley if you are ever in Baltimore!
