the lovely ashley ording

i had the pleasure of photographing my friend ashley again today. she's one of the few people who i photograph again and again because she's just so fun and so pretty. we had a mellow couple of hours in her apartment playing with her cats and her vintage clothes. ashley is woman with impecible taste and i always leave feeling like if i gleaned even 1% of her style i'd be a winner.

fun fact: today i lived up to my i-must-try-new-lenses resolution because i shot with a 50mm lens for the first time ever (it was an f/1.2L). i've never even looked through a camera with a 50mm and it was really great - sharp and velvety. no wonder everyone owns this lens! it will now be a new rental staple for me.

  1. Most people I talked to said the 1.4 is just as good as the 1.2 unless you have to have that extra openness (or that red line). You can get the 1.4 for real cheap.
