Under The Rainbow
Stephanie was incredibly trusting and patient with this photo idea. I asked her to put on a gown and meet us at a park at 6:00 on a very chilly morning in order to make sure we could shoot with the sun where I wanted it.
I’m extremely happy with how this shot came out. As you can imagine, there are hours of post processing that went into this to get it just the way I wanted it.
112 Photos of 2 Sisters
Jessica and Alicia are both amazing women, but they couldn’t be more different from one another.
Jessica is very conservative in her mannerisms and her dress, while Alicia is a belly dance instructor and performer.
We had great fun creating these contrasting images to show the world just how polar opposite they are from each other.
Katelyn’s Senior Portraits
Katelyn was a fantastic model for this shoot.
Originally we had planned to take shots with her Jeep, but because of scheduling conflicts we ended up conducting this shoot the day before the photo was due at her school and that meant not having the option to shoot where I’d originally intended.
I’m extremely proud of these photos because they really show her progression from a teenage girl to a young adult and she looks fantastic in every shot.
Shannon’s family photos
They wanted something a little more dramatic and interesting for their family photos so I shot with a bright AC slave flash hanging from the top corner of the white backdrop and a Pentax AF400FTZ mounted on my Canon 30d. In post processing I pushed the exposure level even further and increased the brightness in many of the shots to create the overly lit feeling in the shots.
I prefer to shoot photos that show the personality of the subject, rather than the simple, stiff, posed photo that many family shoots produce. I believe that these photos allow each person to show their personality while still maintaining a posed composition that makes sense for their family.
