This one still needs a bit of post work but I’m happy so far

You won’t find a sprinkler like this at your local garden store. The cool thing is stilettos aerate the lawn by punching holes in it.

nicole

This was Nicole’s second photo shoot and she was simply amazing. An absolute natural in front of the camera.

Nicole is with Merrick Talent. MUA/hair Jamie Dresselhaus.

Little bit of irony– I think this is the same style swimsuit I shot last night! It’s not my swimsuit– I swear! Hot pink is just in this year, I guess.

sailboat shoot

Big shoot tonight– four models and a cool location. This is really barely a sampling of the images. And for all you photography geeks, I shot with my trusty 5D which I swear is going to make photography history. Amazing camera that pushed technology hard and forced some pretty fantastic new technology (FF, high ISO at the time, affordable). And yeah, the 5D2 is going to eclipse that 5D technology but nice to know the 5D is still fully capable of handling a shoot (gasp — the 5D2 was my backup on this shoot).

Anyway– these are unretouched pics straight out of the camera.

Models Nicole, Maksim, Vanessa, and Bernadette– all with Merrick Talent. MUA/hair Jamie Dresselhaus.

ilovephotoblogs

Hey– my blog was mentioned in the ilovephotoblogs blog this week– again! I’m starting to lose track but I think this is their third reference to my blog so that is very cool!

Here’s another straight-out-of-the-camera-zero-retouching image from last night. Used a single light (beauty dish if I recall correctly) and black foam core to help create shadows. Model Mary, hair/mua Jessica Belknap.
