For my portrait assignment, I decided to spend a day shooting at Plum, a shop in Shepherdstown where I work. There's never a dull moment at Plum, and the strange situations and funny encounters that happen there on a daily basis make for great photographs. This particular picture is a portrait of the owner of Plum, Cari Aliveto Rosen. It was shot using my Nikon D300 camera with a standard lens. I used it on "manual" so that I could control my shutter speed as well as the lighting. Photographing in a shop like this can be difficult because of the multiple light sources, so I chose to use a flash, and have the natural light behind me, facing my subject.
