Cooper Carras…my favorite photographer
The days I enjoy the most (in addition to playing with my niece and dogs) are when you have no place you have to be so you spend your time going on walking adventures and taking photos of the random things in this big wide world. Most of the photos I took today were not that random…360 of the 370 photos were of Cooper Hans.
The goals of our day were 1.) For me to play and experiment with his camera and 2.) To attempt to find something new and suitable for his “about” section on his website. It was the most amazing first of the year I have ever seen (weather wise) so we got really lucky. Most of the shots were outdoorsy, but we also spent a little time in a laundromat where they had incredible old-school chairs (which I would love to have a set of in my dream home some day).
old-skool…just the way I like it
The only minor hazard during our “photo-shoot” was while we were on the Cal campus…some high school boys somehow were able to get onto the roof of the building where we were shooting and found a rope to ride down the side. The rope almost landed on Cooper’s head as he was posing (he is a good poser by the way). The guy didn’t land on us, but of all places in this big little world, it was funny that he almost shimmied right down on top of us.
