This series of photographs features my husband, Sean, who balances his corporate 9-to-5 life with a carefree spirit on weekends. Captured against a grassy hillside on an overcast day, the close-up shots highlight Sean's connection to his motorcycle, affectionately named "Holly." Utilizing natural lighting, I aimed to depict the sense of freedom that riding brings him. The angle of the shot, taken from the ground, enhances the feeling of adventure, capturing the essence of both the rider and his machine in harmony.

Background Information • The subject of these photographs was my husband, Sean, who works in a corporate, 9- to-5-type environment. I like that on weekends, he can easily transition to a care-free spirit who loves to ride his Honda Shadow 1100, affectionately nicknamed “Holly.” The close up photo was taken outside on a grassy hillside. I took advantage of the natural lighting that the overcast day provided to avoid shadow effects.
Background Information • With the environmental portrait, I used a Sony Cyber-shot 7.2 megapixel digital camera. The angle was shot from the ground to capture the subject as if he were riding the motorcycle. The overcast sky served as the backdrop to emphasize the openness and freedom from traditional boundaries the subject feels when he rides. Here, the subject and the machine became one.
