Marina is moving away... · **29 Likes**

My lovely friend Marina moved to Tallahassee over this last weekend. We managed to catch breakfast together the day before she left at the location of our very first shoot so it was quite emotional for the both of us. We have had a lot of adventures together over our many shoots and I will miss her. She has promised to visit during holidays and that we will continue to shoot. I plan to eventually release a book of images of her someday once I have edited enough of them. I figured I would share a handful of our favorite images.

The blue building in the background is the cafe where we had our breakfast.

A wooden boardwalk at Coral Cove. One of Marina's favorite beaches.

Marina's mother claims that this is her favorite image. A different look for Marina. It started raining not long after this was taken.

By far one of my most popular images on Flickr. It took awhile before I was able to do a B&W of Marina as she is always so full of life and energy but I felt that this one was appropriate.

We found this cute red bridge leading to a lovely little island with fountains and statues.

Taken on a beach in Melbourne.

A lovely trail by the water. Marina was constantly on the lookout for snakes.

Sunrises at the Boynton Beach Inlet rarely disappoint and nothing catches your attention like a red dress.

Natural light of the sunset.

Another rare B&W.

Playful as always.

One of the few models that didn't fall down in the skates.

Some mistook this as a wedding shot.

Always willing to try something new and different.

I'm curious. Has the release of DFA*85/1.4 caused any itch to take Pentax up again?

All the photos are beautiful. Love the backdrops and lighting on each photo. Was going to mention my favourite ones, but it's impossible. Will remember this series for a long time.

If the 85 had come out a year or two earlier I might have snagged one for the K-1 but the eye AF on the Sony and Fujifilm cameras have truly spoiled me along with the over inflated price of the of DFA 85 have made me rethink all of that. As much as I love my K-1 it feels like a dinosaur whenever I try to use it. I will most likely hold on to it in case I ever get back into landscape photography.

Thanks for all the kind words!

Yes she is doing well and gaining a bit of following on IG as well which is great. There's a local place that restores classic cars that is willing to bring cars to some of my shoots.

Thanks in advance.

Shot 5 (sunglasses on, slight seems very natural and playful.

Shot 7 (sunglasses off, tip off) is also playful and natural.
