I AM NOT A MORNING PERSON.

But as painful as it was for all three us – myself, Krass & Rali –  getting up at 4′30AM was a huge lottery hit that day. We had a little bit of everything in the mix – great morning colors,  cooperative weather, nice wave action, a fantastic location showcasing some of the most intimate and authentic scenery Bulgaria has to offer, and last, but by no means least, an absolutely gorgeous model. We left Varna around 5 AM and reached our destination – a small fishing village just North of Golden Sands – shortly after that, just in time to capture the first rays of the sun.

I’ve known this place since I was a small kid. Some of my first landscape shots way back in the years were taken here. To my surprise the place hasn’t changed much – and most people are still there. It turns out Rali’s dad has a boat and a small hut there. It’s such a small world.

SOME TIME AROUND 7:35:07 AM…

DROWNING THE GOWN a.k.a. The Green Session

To finally drown the gown and avoid curious onlookers we moved a bit up North where the beach is still untouched by human activity. The waves were perfect for what I was looking for, and the light conditions allowed me to squeeze out as much color from the sun’s reflections in the water as possible. Most Valdorama GREEN shots from that morning are in this gallery. Here we go:

…WOW, what can I say…   Kudos to our bride/model – way to go Rali – you were phenomenal, truly outstanding!

It also looks like we created the daily sensation  - the whole village has been talking about us that day. Oh boy :-)

…Did I say that all three of us had an absolute blast – shooting this type of photography is all about the awesome experience – the images just come as a nice dessert.

STAY TUNED – a VIDEO featuring cool moments, comments and other behind the curtain info about this session is coming up shortly. My sincere thanks to Krass for assisting me with some of the tricky shots AND shooting the video footage. His help can not be seen directly on the photos, but without him most of this  shoot would not have been possible.  You are a soldier man, thank you so much for always being there for me!
