Tim White Productions: Studio Interiors and Equipment

Posted in Interiors,Musicians and Bands,Promotional Photography,Still Life / Products

Tim White got back in touch with me recently to have some interiors and detail shots done for his website that would show off his music production studio. This was such a neat project for me because I love doing closeups of interesting stuff like this– music equipment is fascinating to me and of course I really enjoyed putting some funky processing on the photos to go with the vibe… I am hoping he won’t mind if i take a stab at making him a short slideshow of set to his music that I can put on youtube as a mini-advertisement that will offer a link back to his website at the end. This could be a good way of flowing some traffic to his site, and every little bit helps when you are in a creative business like photography or music!  Here are a handful of favorites.

Lydon’s 30th Birthday Party at Clover Club, Brooklyn

Posted in Events

Shooting this party was a blast and of course the venue was great-looking. Difficult shooting (very dark! mirrored ceiling squares! wood walls!) but I pulled it off nicely with a little help from my 5D’s excellent high ISO capabilities and the ever-fabulous 50mm 1.2L. I had a lot of fun processing these shots– usually when I process a wedding I stick more or less to true color correction and basic contrast, with some b+w and sepia tone selections in the mix. With a set of party shots like this I couldn’t help getting a little creative with some vintage film-looks, cross processing effects etc. I love playing like this… hope you enjoy– and happy birthday, Lydon!

Hey Sarah,
I just wanted to let you know that I finally got to look through all of the photos, and they’re just beautiful!
You did amazing things with that wonky light – everyone looks gorgeous and like they’re having fun.
Honestly – you don’t know how special they are!!
Hope you’re having a good Thursday, and thanks for everything!!
