Bridal Fashion shoot: gowns and veils!

Posted in fashion,Portraits,Promotional Photography,Weddings

This weekend I shot bridal fashions in the studio with a great team– we were creating a lookbook for the custom wedding gown designer Courtney Brooke Yates. To fill out the shoot we brought in Holly Slayton to match her gorgeous birdcage veils and cocktail pieces with the gowns Courtney has created. Deepa Das (MUA) and Oryana Quintero filled out my team.  We shot a number of gowns and lots of new pieces from Holly– it was a long day but lots of fun.  Check out some of my favorites, rendered here with some of my stylistic processing (don’t worry, Courtney, your disc will have everything in straight color to show the exact fabric colors, i just couldn’t resist playing).

Headshots for Jess Goldfarb

Posted in Actor Headshots,Portraits,Promotional Photography

What great weather for headshots! We lucked out saturday and enjoyed making a series of natural light headshots for Jess– I did a set of indoor photos for him too just in case he needs a more dramatic look for anything.  He had trouble deciding so we retouched his four favorites:

and here he is inside with studio lighting… which would you guys use?

Handsome fella. I think the middle two are really great – each can be used for different purposes. If I had to pick just one, then definitely the third. I like the first one as well, – but to me there’s a bit of tension between the rigid pose and his expression, which looks like he’s about to break into a smirk. This could be a good thing, depending on what kind of look he’s going for.
The last one is my least favorite. Hope this helps :).

Here are a few recent reviews that went up about me on Project Wedding!  In preparation for my new website I’m creating a ‘what they’re saying’ page over on the left here— if you’re a client of mine (wedding/portrait especially) please consider leaving a testimonial on that page via the ‘comment’ feature of this blog.  Then when I make my new website I can use what you wrote on a testimonials page…

celebrity sightings…

Posted in Events

This week I was hired to do a bit of shooting at the NY International Auto Show, and I thought i’d share a few nifty pics I snagged for myself while there– the first series was from a press conference featuring a team of U.S. Olympic gold medalists (the bobsled team I believe). Then there was the Donald. Yes THE Donald, sighted rather randomly by the writer I was accompanying– he looked to be doing some sort of wheeling and dealing and was not taking kindly to the fact that a few photographers had noticed him there so I didn’t shoot more than a few frames out of fear of being “fired.”

and here’s the Donald:
