Dean Coleman - Musician Promo Shoot

Dean and I shot in the DC area on a beautiful June afternoon. Check out those great clouds! Couldn't have asked for a prettier day. Included a couple behind-the-scenes shots for you guys.

New portrait photoshoot

Photoshoot with model and photographer Courtney Parrie (http://courtneyparrie.com/). The main portraits (minus the B&W which was taken in the shade of the forest/natural light) we taken with a beauty dish mounted on a 1000 watt X3200 White Lightning strobe and a catch light behind the subject (a 600 watt White Lighting with a 7" reflector).

The jumping action shots were taken with the same lights, except one on either side of the subject and powered to the same level. I had the beauty dish on the side Courtney was facing and had her jump in the air off train tracks as I shot at 24mm (Canon 24-70mm 2.8L). I decided to leave the power lines in the one action photo because I felt it added to the design.

The Amazing Jay J. Armes

I just returned from an incredible trip to El Paso, Texas photographing the "World's Most Famous Private Detective" Jay J. Armes.  I am still editing images. More back-story and photos to follow soon. Many thanks to the Armes family for their warm hospitality and glowing personalities.

I originally learned of amazing Jay J. Armes from the following Youtube video:
