Aya just turned fourteen! I learned from her mom that she started ballet when she was two years old (wow!) and that she's very shy and hasn't been in a photoshoot before.
As with my other sessions, I aimed for the pictures to look effortless and relaxed and since we were doing it in a nature resort, it thought it should also look fresh and give a sense of stillness and not hurried. They wanted to feature scenes that show a horse, this horse named Delia. I love that she has a name! Delia was behaved the entire time. She had a caretaker nearby at all times just we got into some unpredictable moments.
Aya was a bit afraid of Delia the first few shots but they got better moments as we progressed. A few moments in and it started to drizzle so we had to let Delia go back.
As soon as it stopped drizzing, I wrapped up the poses since it was also getting a bit dark. We're so thankful despite all the gray clouds, it didn't rain all the way. I hope you all like these photos of Aya.
