Erika's Bridal Portrait

I had the honor of taking bridal portraits of Erika.  Erika is a fun loving person with a lot of energy and the photo session turned it into a mini fashion shoot.  It was a lot of fun even had her friends were cheering her on.  Here are the photos taken that day and I've included a small photo montage.







Makeup by Mary Fairchild






Congratulations Erika and Tang!!!

Breakin for Birney

Saturday we decided to cover an annual fundraiser called Breakin for Birney that is held at American University. It's a breakdancing event where spectators are encouraged to participate. The donation was $5.00 which we were glad to pay since it's going to a good cause. All proceeds go to Facilitating Leadership in Youth (FLY, www.flyouth.org).

Here are some of the photos taken that day.

Fells Point Meet and Greet Part 2

Here is a continuation of my Model Mayhem Fells Point Meet and Greet post. I had the pleasure of taking photos of Selome Kobayashi of Thread Magazine. I documented her makeup being applied by Mary Fairchild. Selome just looks stunning. Enjoy the photos.












In that last photo I wanted to depict a throw back feel.

Fells Point Meet and Greet

It was one of those Sundays I wanted to sleep in. OK I want to sleep in every weekend but you have to go out and see the world. That was motivation and it was an event I've told myself I would attend. So I give my friend Mary a call to make sure she is ready to make the trip up to Baltimore. When she picked up she was still asleep and wanted to sleep in. Who can blame a person for wanting to sleep in after a night of partying. But I think I laid a guilt trip on her because we planned a few weeks back to go to this event. Upon Arrival I get to meet Cassandra our unknowing muse for the day. She is a stylist turned model for the day.

It was a good thing we didn't spend the day under the covers. I was able to gain a new friend, hang out with friend, see old buddies and meet new people. Plus the day was full of excitement. Hey what not to like about going on a road trip, eating out by the water front, drinking booze and taking photos.






During the shoot I wanted to use available light. OK I used the available light I brought with me. During the shoot I demonstrated some light techniques I'll plan on teaching during one of workshops I plan on teaching in the near future. I thought I'd share.

A breif moment with Jeanette

A few weeks ago I lucky enough to capture a few frames of the lovely Jeanette. I already had the light set up I wanted to try in my head. With a little brain storming and help I was able to capture the image below. This might of inspired me to travel into the realm of boudoir photography.
