More from USF campus…
As my friend Misha and I continue building our portfolios (mainly concentrating on portraiture), we decided to make use of the few awesome days this fall gave us just before all the cold fronts moved in and headed to USF’s St. Pete campus for more shooting/practicing. Our “guest model” this time was Sofia Sokolenko who did absolutely amazing job with posing (so we can’t take any credit for that) and overall we had tons of fun at this shoot.
I recently have come into possession of the newest Nikon’s gem - the Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8 lens. Getting ready to go full frame in near future, I decided that I will not be investing into DX lenses anymore. The 24-70 was the number one full frame lens on my list and with the latest MS live cash back offers (on qualified ebay purchases) I couldn’t resist and pulled the trigger on it earlier than initially planned :) Of course I can’t regret my decision because this lens is stunning! This entire photo shoot was done with this lens only.

Thank you Galina! We’re not sure at this point, we don’t plan these too far in advance ;-) More like, a phone call on Thursday: “What are you doing this Sunday? Nothing? Wanna shoot?”
Where in FL are you guys heading to ?
