18 Seaboard

Working on some images for NC Signature Magazine of local restaurants. This was my trip to 18 Seaboard for some food shots. A big thank you to Jason chef and owner (the one holding the fish), he was really into this preparing food and locations and made my job easier.

Jones street revisit again

I stopped by Jones street the other night. I was alittle bummed the gate was locked so I couldn't match my camera position. I didn't feel like trespassing.

fire fire fire

This was a way cool assignment for a magazine cover. I got to shot the Assistant Fire Chief at a training center. The burn room can really put off some heat and smoke. 2 AB's with reflectors, warm gel on one and a deep red on the other.

3 day catalog grind

A 3 day catalog grind. I can just get in a the zone and crank through this stuff, of course I have to stop every few hours and clean up the studio. Most of the products glass and silver, fun for lighting.

Rock the runway

A little pro-bono work, Rock the runway. There were 10 studio photographers, at first we were in 10x10 tents in the parking lot, with the sun setting behind us and the wind lifting the tents off the ground. We had alittle photographer mutiny and ended up inside.

free day

Had a free day last week and got together with Fuse Talent and Meschantes Couture. It was a super windy and overcast day. I tried to go for an almost night type of shot. I wish my camera would sync above a 250th. Had the AB's out, if they blew over not a big deal, main and backlight. Got afew studio shots, Profoto beauty dish and grid for backlight.

shooting shooting

On assignment for an article on a family that "shoots" together. I haven't shot a gun since my days in Vegas 15 years ago. I had a good time shooting those skeet out of the air. An overcast day, just tried to add some snap with a main light and a backlight.
