I love my girlfriend, and I’m a photographer, so I love to take pictures of my girlfriend, right? Problem is, she hates to be photographed: whenever I raise my camera and point it at her, she finds a way to hide her face.
Six months ago, I posted a few pictures here of her dodging my lens, and somehow the series went viral. This only made me want to take more pictures of her, so we turned the concept into a little game between the two of us: whenever I want to snap a picture of her, she has to find a way to hide her face. And so here's part two of 'I Keep Trying To Photograph My Girlfriend But She Won’t Let Me'.
Note for the curious ones: most pictures are 100% spontaneous (even the one with the cat on her shoulders, I swear). For a few, I've asked her to place herself somewhere in the frame (say, next to the puddle so I can capture her reflection). And only one is staged: the one with the curved tree.

I like the way the body forms a kind of symmetry with respect to the tree!!!
