SPRING IN MY STEP
Spring Fashion Inspired Styled Shoot

It was the week before my big test and I had been working around the clock studying and wrapping up the winter sale orders.  Realistically,  I had no time for anything else besides studying for this exam. But I was going stir crazy after 12 hour days of sitting behind a desk and staring at […]

MHP Session: “In The Heights”

This session started off as a request for headshots and morphed into an editorial shoot of life in Washington Heights – a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood. Luckily, my gorgeous model Kiara was willing and down for anything, even stopping to pose inside a bodega despite the puzzled stares of onlookers . She walked and walked and walked some more […]

Summer Girls

As I mentioned in this post,  I’ve been organizing a “just for fun” photo shoot over the last few weeks. I wanted to do something like it for awhile and since I found myself with some extra time this summer, it was all the more reason to make it happen. The concept was simple:  a farewell to summer.  […]

Location is pictorial, as well as the lovely lanterns your sis Charlotte and her friends look like naturals in front of the camera, one of my fave photos is of the floral wayfarers and the colorful reflection captured on the lenses.

The lanterns add such a lovely touch and that house in the background looks like it’s out of a fairytale. I almost always fail at shooting at midday so I take my hat off to you! What new technique did you use?

September 6, 2011 - 10:58 pm

Nadette - I LOVE it!! I’m really wishing you had been there for my picnic in July, my pics just don’t hold a candle to these. For my photography homework, I’m supposed to be working on portraits in various types of light, but I blew my weekend and it’s going to rain the rest of the week, I’m so sad. But on the upside, at least I know the concepts for taking great pictures in bright sunlight. I feel so accomplished :)

September 7, 2011 - 3:56 pm

Tiera - Oh, how fun! I’ve gotta get my girlfriends to do something like this so I can practice my photography skills!

Cathy - Gorgeous! The colors are so vibrant! And I’d love to pluck a strawberry out of the picnic basket.
