While I was living in Australia, I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Marta Sinclair, who was finishing a research book on women's intuition and needed an updated headshot for her author image. We talked about the nature of the book and what she wanted her author image to convey to readers. Ultimately, it was decided that there was a need for a slightly serious image (below) as well as a more friendly and casual image (above). Originally we had scheduled to shoot outside, but just before the shoot a very windy storm started moving in, and we ended up shooting at her home- luckily, I'm able to adapt to just about any condition thrown at me. What I really love about photographing authors is learning more about their work. We had several interesting conversations around the findings in the book, as well as a multimedia project her husband was working on. If you'd like to learn more about Marta's writings, check out her books available on Amazon:
