I think a lot of people are in the belief that flare is nothing more than a recent fad, and will be on the way out faster than it became popular. I don’t think so. It’s natural light, it’s only a shooting style with natural light – it has nothing to do with post processing, it’s about our surroundings. Saying flare is heading out of style is like saying natural light is on it’s way out, and until the sun disappears in five billion years from now… forget about it. This shoot had a lot do to with nature actually for us. Naz in her flats, I in my leather dress shoes, hiked up into a lightly forested area and really just made our own place here. Apparently I forgot my creative hat at home though because was I ever struggling to get going. Sushi after, as always. Naz & I decided to act mature and dare one another into eating a chopstick full of wasabi, and now I’m paying for it with an upset tummy while I publish this online. :P

Nicole Haley - Sean – thanks for the blog note, and what mighty nice flare YOU have! I just checked out your website and I’m blown away – there is inspiration just oozing off of the screen. As a backpacker/nature lover, I’m loving your stories. I am going to search for more about the ice hotel! Best wishes.
Anna - You know I love the flare! Totally copied it in my post too.. ;) These are stunning! I think more artistic than usual from you, I like it!
VancityAllie - I have to admit I’m not much of a flare fan but I’m definitely a natural light fan. You’ve captured Naz really nicely here. The one with just the shoes and legs is my favourite.
Naz - One of my favourite photos (EVER!) was the product of this photoshoot :) You’re absolutely fantastic, Seanie :D
Catherine - Naz is really pretty,I like her face.Who cares about flare its still gorgeous pictures.Perfect flare that I have ever seen.
