As I was archiving photos the other day, I came across my un-published session of modeling portfolio images with Robin Vieira. Robin is a Portland-based professional model and represented by Sports + Lifestyle Unlimited.

When Robin contacted me about updating her modeling portfolio, I was excited to work with her. She is a natural beauty and what I would call the ultimate “summer girl.” From her dark blonde hair and blue eyes, to her chiseled physique, you can picture her right at home in the summer sun.

Robin is also  is actually one of the most interesting and sweetest gals I have worked with in a long time. She is ego free and very laid back. She surfs. She practices yoga. She glows in front of the camera.

The day of Robin’s modeling portfolio session, she was also incredibly patient! It was the first time I had paired my Sony camera with my Canon lenses during a session, so EVERYTHING was manual. There was no snap, snap, snap and done. I had to take my time, focus manually, set the camera manually and go for the shot.

Here is a look at some of my favorites from our modeling portfolio session. Don’t they just scream, “SUMMER!”?
