Ida was a pretty challenging portrait. She is extremely camera shy as well as very kinetic. I attempted a portrait when I was in Portland but I was very unhappy with how I Did so when she was in town this fall to visit we tried again. I am very grateful for her willingness to sit for me a second time and I hope that even for someone who “hates every picture of themselves ever” that she is happy with the result. I think it was worth the wait.
