Wednesday night, I got lucky with Meaghan Pocock, and by that, I mean I got the chance to shoot with her! She's a peach and so much fun to work with! Taylor Sandy was our stylist for the evening. We shot lots of different outfits with lots of different accessories. Meaghan can make anything look great! A friend who saw a preview asked, "what needs styling?" Well, it takes a lot of effort to make so little look so great (on both efforts of Meaghan and Taylor). I'm lucky to work with both!
These shots took place over two nights. We shot the week prior, too, so some of these are from the 18th, and some are from the previous week. Both shoots were shot with Profoto lights, modifiers and power packs. Modifiers used are: beauty dish, magnum and an 8' octobox. I wanted to shoot with a variety of sources to get as many different looks as I could get. These were shot into Capture 1 and edited with Photoshop and NIK.
Super fun night working with two super fun folks! It's shoots like these that make me realize just how lucky I am!

today was a wonderful day with a great team! style, hair and makeup were all spot-on! there were lots of looks with hair/makeup changes. of course, it's difficult to take a bad photo with these two models (Cora Skinner and Chris Davis). another stylist stopped by and glanced at my monitor and said, "man, those look great!" i replied, "thank you, but if you take a bad photo of Cora, then you're a photographer not worth your salt." on top of that, she was a little ill today. there's no way to tell it from the photos.
this is a different light setup i've started using for these email advertisements. i'm using two 3' strip lights on the background (one on each side vertical for a nice even spread), a large 4'x6' soft-box as a fill on the right and rather high pointing down and a beauty dish at about 30° on the left as the key. all of which is Profoto.
there is little to no editing on these shots. i wanted to show off the hair and makeup since they did such an amazing job today!
