Breaking the Rules
When you have sunny Summer weather and only 30 minutes to shoot Miss Clay Mallory Cassidy, what do you do?? You hang out on Second Street in Portsmouth!
With so many old buildings, unique shops, and freshly renovated locations, it’s a great place for a quick mini session! As we strolled the street, we came across the renovated patio area at 535 Second Street. So we popped in and shot some pictures for a few minutes. Mallory did a fantastic job, and then we headed off down the street to finish the session.
After we’re done, I go through the images on my computer and post a few to social media. No big deal.
And that’s when I found out I was in trouble!
Only a few minutes after posting, I got a message from the property owners letting me know that people are not allowed to stand or sit on the tables at that venue. Yikes! We hadn’t thought anything of it while we were shooting - the girls I work with end up posing on all kinds of things - so we certainly didn’t mean to overstep. I appreciate Main Street Portsmouth reaching out to let us know. I shoot all over, in a variety of locations, and my goal is always to leave no trace - I want to leave the location as we found it.
So next time, no standing on the tables. ;)
