Inspiring Artist • Rebecca Pederson

An amazing thing that happened on this shoot was this incredible sunset that came out just as we were filming the opera scene out on Antelope Island with Rebecca. It was perfect and created such a stunning backdrop and we were fortunate to get all the shots in that we needed with this light. And then… a huge lightening storm started. We had a large metal jib down by the lake that we were afraid to go retrieve because lightening was striking all over… but it was also getting dark. Fast. And I had not planned on bringing a generator with extra lights. It became a frantic race against time. Fortunately, the whole piece turned out beautifully.
