About the location
We had the amazing opportunity to use the historic location of Castillo De San Marcos in St. Augustine FL. If you have ever been to St. Augustine than you most likely have visited or at least seen from afar this historic castle looking fort that was constructed in the late 1600's by the Spanish. You can still view the old canons used, and all the rooms on the inside. It is truly unique and a photographers dream. It over looks all of the historic St. Augustine area on a high hill.
About the shoot
This was a styled shoot that I put on for my meet up team. We are photographers from all over Florida, and some even from different states, that met up in the area to have fun and collaborate in this styled shoot. I put on this event for them to join in on and build their portfolio with. We had TONS of vendors from my county drive over and help us create this beautiful scene built for a princess. It was so fitting for our area. This was my first personal shoot done on film. It was sort of the kickoff for my new beginnings in hybrid shooting. I am so thankful for everyone who participated.
