Beautiful 1895 Mansion + Photo Studio + Enchanting 2 Acre Garden. (Best Value for the Price on Peerspace)
was raining for my shoot but the droplets of rain on the window pane helped set the mood for experimental shooting. P.S he set up lights and a white backdrop upstairs! Primo accommodations just got a whole lot better! Thank you again from ArtofSenpai Photography...
