Time Spent Outside

The crew spends so much time outside during one of these shoots. As such, they learn to keep out of the sun and whatever other weather they might encounter as much as is feasible. Sometimes cover is under the shade of a building and other times it is a grove of trees. What I really like about the shots in Bocas town is that there are friendships within that one would never see directly. The skateboard that Katie is using belongs to Tres. He agreed to let the crew use it because of the friendships he has developed with all of them over the past two years. Rachel bringing down a bunch of Jakob's Star War's toys that he had outgrown might have also sweetened the deal. In the other photos the crew is just doing what they need to do to help each other out - improving the light, etc.

This post is in our Behind the Scenes series for the Athleta Photo Shoot for their Summer 2011 catalogs shot here in Bocas del Toro in January 2011. It was both an honor and a lot of fun to be a part of this process.
