Photo Shoot in the Parking Garage

Just finished up shooting Keits in the new Parking Garage on campus. As I was setting up my lighting equipment, a police car rolled by and asked what I was doing. I replied, "Just a photo shoot of my friend's new car". He said,"Awesome, carry on!". Wiped a huge bunch of sweat from my brow after that, I hadn't even started shooting and I was sure he was going to tell me to leave. The empty garage was a perfect backdrop for her new Mini Cooper.

Cousins Photos!

Hello everyone! Sorry it has been so long since an update, life has been really crazy with lots of weddings. I recently acquired some new pieces of kit and haven't had the chance to test them yet, but luckily my cousins were visiting today! Here are some samples from the fun!

Bratcher Wedding Rehearsal Photos!

Today was a great day at Boxtree Lodge for Steven and Tasha's wedding rehearsal. Dad and I got to better plan out all the details for some critical shots as everyone stepped through the motions of the big day tomorrow. We got some great photos of everyone being nice and relaxed and enjoying each other's company. Look forward to more updates from the Wedding later this weekend!

New Gear Again!

So my new Vagabond II power pack and 56" Moon Unit both came Thursday, but it has been miserable and rainy since then so I haven't had a chance to take it outside and give it a try. Until today!

There was a break in the rain, so Torin and Dustin and I grabbed the gear and headed over to the Payne Arch to do some shooting, then the rain began to POUR down from the heavens in cats and dogs fashion. We almost lost the moon unit to the wind a few times, but Dustin locked it down. I also had my 580EXII on a tripod as a secondary light.

The rain stopped and we were able to get our feet a little wet and try a few shots in the sunlight. I wanted to see if the ABR800 could overpower the sun if I put it to Torin's back, and it performed quite admirably! Hope you all like the photos and as always, stay tuned for more!
Here is the whole gallery.

Alex Yates Photoshoot

This was a really fun two-part shoot with my friend Alex Yates. He ordered this really swag jacket from Korea and I thought it would look really neat in a fashion-styled shoot. So we met up at Squires and navigated our way to a certain rooftop of one of the downtown buildings and lugged a few strobes and reflectors and such up and had a blast. It was still pretty bright out in the beginning, but we went and grabbed dinner and came back for some dusk/night photos too. It was a blast to shoot with this much equipment and with some help from Mary Kyle, all of it stayed in place. Here are some samples, but be sure to head over to the photo section of my page to see the whole set. Until next time!
