This beach is kind of on the down low as far as West Seattle goes. Compared to the much busier Alki Beach. However…when there is a good sunset, not so much. So…we had an audience when we were doing these, hence no shots of me awkwardly posing by myself 😉
A rock in one hand…a stick in another. SO perfectly Maya… 🙂
On me…
Top- Old Navy (old)
Jeans- Edyson “sloan” deconstructed skinny (thrifted, sold out, but similar here)
Shoes- Birkenstocks (20 years old, and still hanging in there!
On Maya…
Shoes- Converse (thrifted)
Keeping it Real…
So, here’s another look at my set up and a refresher on how I take the images of me and me with Maya. I use that light stand with a stuffed animal at the top to focus on. Once I’ve locked in my focus, I switch the lens over to manual focus, so it doesn’t change. I mark where I need to stand, and run over to that spot with Maya. I’ve got my camera on a tripod a few yards away. I usually move the light stand completely out of the way, but messed up on this one 😉 Yes, I’m sure people think I’m completely wacko haha. Oh, well! One of these days I’ll try and take a video of how it all goes down…. Here’s Maya getting the hang of it all on her own! And…here’s the original post where I talk about my set up (misses and all!)

(all pictures taken with a self timer and tripod, except ones of Maya :))
