This is beginning to become a thing…I LOVE IT! I have had the opportunity to photograph the Patins a few times now. Each time we connect they always outdo the previous encounter. Donté reached out to me a few weeks before their anniversary to let me know that he and his wife Ossie had been putting some ideas together and they were looking to execute them once everything had been finalized. I was already on board without even knowing all of the details, I just wanted to jump into action.
During our call Donté voiced that he and Ossie loved the way Studio Bella’s black room looked. They wanted something that exuded excellence and I think we nailed it. The fancy couches, the detailed wallpaper, the ornate chandeliers, hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light pouring into the space all complimented my couple. This was an amazing session if I do say so myself, and shooting in this beautiful downtown space was the icing on the cake.
The Patin’s are a power couple in my eyes. The way they compliment one another is really something to behold. I’m not talking about just verbal compliments, but their actions primarily. On set the way they checked one another to see if anything was out of place or needed to be in place, the way they bounced ideas off one another all the way down to how they looked at each other. That studio was full of love and it was definitely something to be in awe of. I totally wanted them to forget that I was in the room and let me just focus on them while they focused on each other.
