I had joined a photography/modeling group in my area and found a young lady named Yuliia. She was a belly dance instructor on our island, and as soon as I laid eyes on her, I knew that I just had to shoot her. After sending her a message, I found out she spoke Russian and had just moved to Key West from the Ukraine with her boyfriend. She and I first met in person when I visited the shop she worked at. She said she was new to modeling, and I confessed I was brand new myself, but I felt so comfortable with her that I said, "Let's give it a go!" We planned to meet at Fort Zachery at the golden hour, the best time for the shoot. I was feeling ambitious enough to bring Holi powder & smoke grenades with me, which I had been meaning to try out with the right model. So here is a glimpse into our first shoot together.
