These are the types of photo series that I love. Almost completely spontaneous, these adorable photos show a photographer’s girlfriend trying to hide her face from the camera. When Mikael Theimer began taking photos like this, he could have never imagined that his series would go viral. Shot in Montreal and the Quebec countryside, the photos show the playful side of photography. Theimer now has over 11,200 fans on his Facebook page and he is contemplating putting together a book. Here, he shares the second half of his series. (I love the cat’s many appearances.)
When asked how his girlfriend feels about her newfound fame, Theimer stated: “Mostly she finds the whole thing funny. When the first series started being shared all over the place, she was a bit uncomfortable (we never expected it would reach so many people), but when she started reading what people were saying about the pictures and about us (lots of positive things), she thought it was really nice.”
