Street Life: Ft. Monique
I’m a self proclaimed nature lover, but I also have an equal amount of love for cityscapes and downtown areas. Despite the love for the aesthetic of the city, especially the one-of-a-kind look of Detroit and how much it’s ever changing, I don’t shoot as much in cities as I would actually like to do. I feel like it’s so hard to find the “prime time” to shoot out in the city, unless you get up early enough to escape any distracting crowds of locals and tourists.
With this shoot featuring Monique, the time we chose to meet up, along with it being the winter season, played a big role to easily get these styled shots during an early Sunday morning in Detroit! Monique and I practically had Parker’s alley, a tucked away aisle way separating The Shinola Hotel and the San Morello (restaurant) that had small-scale shops lining one side, all to ourselves the whole time we were there!
