"American Gothic" was the theme for their holiday portraits. Lyndsay is a local photographer (Pink Coffee Photoart), and Anderson is a musician at their church, Chets Creek. Hence, she is with her vintage film camera, and he is with his electric guitar. We tried a couple of shots emulating the famous painting by Grant Wood, and Lyndsay & Anderson totally rocked the look!
Then there's the blue velvet couch. I just knew it was going to be an interesting session as soon as I saw Anderson on the couch strumming his guitar right on their front yard. We caused quite a spectacle for their fairly quiet neighborhood. Neighbors came out to watch, joggers stopped by to take a peek, cars slowed down, and drivers chit-chatted for a little bit. With a gorgeous couple like them, and a beautiful couch on a manicured lawn--who wouldn't stop to watch, right?
I had so much fun and thanks, Lyndsay & Anderson, for having me shoot your holiday portraits :)
