Recently Photographed Brownie Harris

I recently got to photograph a very well known photographer, Brownie Harris. It was quite intimidating for me to go to his 6,000 square foot studio and take portraits of him but I was quite happy with the outcome of the shoot.

I received this email from Brownie and I felt even better. A nice little boost of confidence for me.

I actually look forward to shooting more celebrity faces and well known people. It's so interesting to hear their stories and really try to capture who they are in a portrait.

     Tell me you don't want to try this!

Riverdeck Exterior

Here's a frame from a shoot I did recently. I was asked to take a few interior and exterior architecture pictures of a local event space. I was pretty stoked on the photo's I was able to get out of it. Here is my favorite of the day. A beautiful exterior

Pinterest Challenge

       Seeing as though Pinterest is all the rage now I've decided to start the Pinterest Challenge. I want to push people to actually get out and create something they've seen on pinterest rather than just pinning and wishing they would. So for my first project I went and snagged a crate from the dumpster behind Lowes, bought some white and forest green paint an built an antiqued shelf.

                                                                 It's pretty sweet, right!






My next project is going to be a photo wall. Whats yours?

Studio Jewelry

Got the chance to photograph some Chanel jewelry for a local boutiques ad today. I enjoy shooting still life subjects like this because I like the challenge of lighting them creatively.  On the other hand, I despise shooting on glass because of dust! Good thing I had my trusty can of air to keep everything clean. Here's the ad without any text.

"The Brick"

          Just picked up a 1940's Argus C3. It's in pretty good condition, the shutter can be a little sticky at slower speeds but I'm hoping with a little use it will work its way out. Check it out. 

     

It was a little dirty So I cleaned it up. I think it looks pretty good for 71 years old

    Here is the finished Bloke ad I shot recently. Came out good I'm pretty happy with it.

Been Wandering

         I'm trying to find some cool places around town where I can explore and find a location with some fine art landscape opportunities. I think I stumbled upon said place yesterday it looks very promising with lots of trails and options to explore. I will be making a few trips back soon and hopefully trudge through enough woods to find a killer shot. Heres a few pic's from my travels through the woods. 

                                    

Cameo 1800

    I photographed a few dishes at a local restaurant for an editorial article that will be featured in the November/December issue of Focus on the Coast. The article is spotlighting a few restaurants around town that are featuring new holiday dishes and drinks. Take a peak.

A Wedding

Got the opportunity to shoot a long time friend's wedding in my hometown of Frederick, Maryland. I had an awesome time at the wedding. Got to catch up with old friends and snap a ton of photos. Here's a few.

Getting it all back together

A busy summer is flying by here's a taste of what I've been working on through out the summer.
