As soon as I saw this white couch, I knew it would be perfect for a reclining portrait; several days into the making of Casandra, the Nova Scotia Portfolio, we spend an hour or so working indoors. Because of the 360mm portrait lens I was using on the 8"x10” camera, I needed to work with a relatively small aperture (f/11) to ensure the couch was as sharp as possible. As a result, the images I made of Cassandra on the couch were four seconds long; fortunately all I was asking of her was to lie still; if there had been anything more dynamic involved, I doubt that such a long exposure would have been possible.
