Once again I had the opportunity to work with Dan Harvell Photography and Graphics assisting him on a shoot with the beautiful Jamie Turner. This session was a bit different than our last as this time she traded her high heels and silk blouse for a gun, badge and blue lights. You see Jamie isn't just another pretty face, she is a successful Sheriff's Deputy for a local law enforcement agency. I enjoyed talking with her about some of her work experiences, particularly how she utilizes her pink handcuffs for those "bad" guys that are especially uncooperative.
Women have worked in law enforcement since the 19th century but were mostly relegated to clerical roles. Civil rights and affirmative action laws opened doors for women to assume law enforcement jobs traditionally held by men. Currently, women hold an estimated 12 percent of all law enforcement jobs. Today's police procedures require a greater aptitude for "intelligence, communication, compassion, and diplomacy," making women strong candidates for law enforcement.
Our late night shoot was accomplished with off camera lighting, blue and red filters and smoke bombs - a fun way to spend an evening!
