Among many other remarkable artistic skills, Kate is a textile artist. \u00a0She worked as an art therapist for many years and then launched a knitting design company called Black Bird Knits<\/a>. \u00a0She’s averse to self-promotion but has recently been noticed by a yarn company. \u00a0Their photographs follow a specific branding style and so they took their own photos and haven’t used the images Kate and I have created together. \u00a0Perhaps the greatest compliment I have ever received was given to me by Kate during this session. \u00a0She mentioned that these items would be photographed by the yarn company. \u00a0I said, “Then why are you having me photograph them?” \u00a0And she said, “I like your work.”<\/p>\n

Wow.<\/p>\n

I’m a huge fan of hers as well. \u00a0I almost want to take up knitting. \u00a0But then I remember how many kids I have.<\/p>\n

I met Megan a few years ago through a remarkable woman who transcends a title like friend or client, and had the privilege of photographing her senior portraits<\/a>. She agreed to model for us, making us all wish we were 18 again. \u00a0She was also a great sport about wearing other people’s shoes and shirts and sporting wool on a 90 degree day (without looking overheated). \u00a0Modeling is not easy!<\/p>\n

Kate is adding this shawl and cowl to her Black Bird Knits collection. The patterns are available for purchase by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It turns out that shawls are kind of challenging to photograph because of the way that they hang. It was easy to lose hands and a sense of shape.<\/p>\n

The cowl was much, much easier.<\/p>\n

Thank you so much Megan for being such a joy to work with, and a huge shout out to Kate, as always, for her artistic vision and for being an all around fantastic person. I’m already looking forward to the next time we get to hang out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
