Recently I was asked to produce portraits of guests at a Quniceanera. This is the the celebration of the transition from childhood to womanhood common in the Latin world. In Puerto Rico there is still a formal "high" fiesta but more common is the more modest family celebration at a special salon de actividades. I needed to shoot all of the guests and do so simply and very quickly... so I mounted the M9 on a tripod, used my 90mm summarit and the small sp 24 on a stand off to the side. I gave minimal direction to the sitters. I shot bw jpgs and lightly processed in Lightroom. The resulting images were put together in a blurb book and provided to the hosts on a cd for them to distribute as they liked. The reactions were very favorable... with comments like "it looks like Hollywood". The Quinceanera used her image as her Facebook profile pic. This image is the mother of one of the young guests. Thanks for looking and for comments.
