Seniors: Josh.

Dressing up sharper than ever, Josh was a natural to shoot! You guys probably remember last year he modeled for me for one of my photo shoots, so it was awesome to shoot with him again for his seniors!


Enjoy!

The lighting that day couldn't be more perfect! 

I think I've finally figured out how to free-lens, and I LOVE it! (Even if it does risk dirty-ing the sensor in my camera, the results are totally worth it!

Here's this shoot's Incognito Model:

When I told Josh what I was doing, he starting cracking up so I just had to get a photo!

For Josh's conceptual photo piece, I already knew what I wanted when I knew I was going to shoot his seniors. Josh does a lot of brilliant drawings/doodles/typography and I couldn't pass that up. 

Artists, whether its a photographic artist, a dance artist, or a sketching artist, they all create. I asked him before the shoot if he could draw me up a cute little stick couple so I could make his creations come to life in a different platform.

Hope you have a fantastic senior year Josh, you're almost done bud! 

Seniors: Luke.

With one of the most relaxed dispositions I've ever seen, Luke was super easy to shoot. (Even if he is a good 6" taller than me, and I'm nearly 6'!) Here are some of the shots I took of him, so enjoy!

Shoutout to my assistant Jake for helping me out that morning: the wind decided to be a little playful and Jake handled like a trooper!

Oh, did I mention that he is an exceptional basketball player? 

...And he can dunk. 

Whenever I do a senior session, no matter where it is, there always seems to be other people who interrupt my photo shoots by walking in the background. 

So I've made a point to take pictures of these people and call them "My Incognito Models"

For last but not least, here is the conceptual art piece that I made with Luke. Everyone who knows Luke knows that he's super tall and towers pretty much everyone he knows. When I was thinking of an idea, he mentioned that I should make him into some sort of tree, which sparked an immediate idea: even though I wouldn't make him a tree in the normal sense, I would surround a tree sort of concept around him. 

Thanks Luke for being a trooper while Jake moved a large three-pronged branch around your face. Haha!

That's all for now! Good luck on your senior year Luke, I know you'll do great! 

New Changes on my Blog.

Hello Blog Viewer!


I know, I know. I haven't posted on here as much as I would like and I've noticed that.

I always claim that I want to post more, but I don't. I want to change that by posting a wide range of my photos: from my trips and senior photos, to my conceptual work that I post on my other social networks.

Not only would I like to post photos, but updates in my developments and tutorials for my work!


Thank you so much for being so patient with me and visiting my blog!



Love you all! :D
