Young woman portrait in QingLongHu park, Chengdu

Photography often rewards those who are willing to adapt to unexpected challenges. On a beautiful day in Chengdu, I had the pleasure of working with the talented Chinese model, Yang Lilan, in the picturesque QinglongHu Park. What began as a sunny and promising photoshoot soon transformed into an adventurous and memorable experience when unexpected rain showers decided to join us.

Our day started with bright sunshine filtering through the lush green canopy of QinglongHu Park. Yang Lilan, effortlessly moved through the park’s natural beauty, posing gracefully in various spots. One standout moment was when she climbed and posed in a tree, blending her elegance with the park’s natural charm.

Just as we were getting into the rhythm of the photoshoot, unexpected raindrops began to fall.

When the rain finally subsided, we decided to explore the park’s pond. Here, Yang Lilan’s reflective beauty perfectly complemented the tranquil waters. We captured breathtaking images of her in and around the pond, using the water’s surface to create striking reflections. The contrast between the vibrant colors of the park and the water provided a diverse and visually captivating backdrop.

What started as a sunny photoshoot in QinglongHu Park transformed into a unique and memorable experience, showcasing the versatility and professionalism of our model, Yang Lilan, a truly exceptional model.
