After leaving a party at the home of the Jamaican Ambassador, we pulled into an area of Rock Creek Park, on the Maryland side, where the harshness of the sun was obscured by the tree line. Although I’m a strobist at heart, there is still nothing like available light for portraits. Rhiannon so naturally knows how to be photographed, that all I had to concern myself with was exposure and composition.

Walking the streets with an old friend is like taking a trip back in time. Places and images remind you of how you felt twenty years ago. It might be Parkway or it might be girls at a bus stop in high tops. Either way their is nothing like seeing things twice with a true friend. Always look twice…you never know what you might see if you slow down and pay attention. Jesus Christ. - Rhi run
