Caleb

Caleb can rock the whole guitar thing so we headed to the guitar store and had the run of the place for a few hours for Caleb’s senior shoot! Caleb has a great look and he fit right in with guitars on the walls and ceilings. In our senior photography we try to capture what they are all about and beyond just being a great guy, Caleb has the rockstar vibe goin’ on. Thanks Caleb for the awesome shoot! Here’s Caleb:

Alena

Alena joined us for a beach senior photography shoot a few weeks ago. As a photographer herself she was a lot of fun in front of the camera! We had a great time together and we came up with a “few” cool shots along the way. Our unique style fit right in with her personality. We did a mix of studio shots along with some at the beach & park. Check out the coolness that is Alena:

Josh & Tiffany

I get Tiffany and Josh. They keep it simple. Just lots of love and a few good dance moves. What more do you need, really? They put on a fabulous ceremony and reception at Ohef Sholom Temple with a “few” of their friends and family. Here’s a sneak peek into their amazing evening. Congrats guys!

Jacob

Jacob brought his game and fought off the 40 degree weather for a most cool senior shoot! We braved some biting temps but you’d never know from his pics. Jacob is a man of many hats, including – surfing, swimming, lacrosse, snowboarding, and my fav – photography! BTW we are accepting applications for our Senior Model program – want a piece of the action? Check it out here! Here’s a few shots of what he had up his sleeve:

Ty and Shannon

Shooting another photographer is always a bit different than a “normal” shoot but this one was different…in a good way!. We met Ty and Shannon at our workshop in Tampa last week and we had a great time talking photography and just getting to know each other. We were actually in Tampa for a senior (High School) convention but we always love shooting a couple when we get a chance. We jumped in the car and drove around looking for some cool spots and stumbled on a ’57 Chevy, an old marina, and of course a Florida sunset. Niiiiice….. We topped the night off with some Mexican eats. Check out Ty & Shannon and their awesomeness!

Monica and Aric

Maybe it’s just me but Monica and Aric look quite spectacular together. Funny how that works – You wait for the right one and when it all fits together you know it and so does everyone else. They made it all official at the Chrysler Museum of Art – a spectacular place all on it’s own. Add Monica and Aric and “voila!” an amazing evening results! Antonia Christianson Events (see more images on her blog!) and Blue Steel Lighting had the Chrysler looking its finest and DJ Rodney Charles kept the party lively. Congratulations guys – that’s a fine kickoff to what will be a long life together. Here’s M&A:

SPA model 2010 – Brittany!

Brittany comes from the cold plains of North Dakota courtesy of Aspen Studios. She joined us in San Diego for SPA 2010 and we spent the afternoon with her on the sunny beaches of Coronado. Here’s a few shots from our day cruising around the Hotel Del Coronado!

Tiffany & Josh

Just a quaint little wedding. NOT! Tiffany & Josh put on an amazing evening for their wedding day and we were able to catch a few shots of them having the time of their lives. Here’s to you, guys…congrats! Here’s T&J!

SPA model 2010 – Aubree!

Yes, call me a California wannabe. We winged our way out to San Diego for the 2010 Senior Portrait Artists (SPA) convention last week and came back energized and excited about what we were going to do in 2010 for our seniors! The fabulous Hotel del Coronado provided a backdrop for our shooting workshop with our senior models, Aubree and Brittany. They were both amazing and the California sand & sun gave us all kinds of opportunities for some great shooting. Thanks to SPA for inviting us to San Diego to give folks a taste of what our workshops are like. Stay tuned for a few shots of Brittany tomorrow!

Professional Photographer Magazine

It’s always awesome to see your images in print but to get them in one of the premier photography magazines in the nation is…quite frankly mind numbing. We can’t quite get our head wrapped around the whole idea but we ain’t complainin’! It’s such an exciting and hectic time for us and I just had to stop and say a big thanks to everyone who encourages us and inspires us to do what we do. It’s what keeps us going! We’ve also been doing some interviews and webcasts recently. Here’s a peek into our short but exciting story and a few of our images from the Professional Photographers magazine (you can click the image to expand and read our articles): WPPI Radio interview More Photos Radio interview

Meg

Megan is the bomb! She picked a killer day for her senior shoot and we ran around downtown for a couple of hours just for the fun of it. Here’s Megan!

Aric & Monica

Shall we try to top Aric & Monica’s wedding? I say no! But you say, “All weddings are the same!” Nay! I rebuke thee! Aric and Monica went a step above – Not a minister but a Bishop. Not a church but an art museum. Not a veil but a birdcage veil. Not only a DJ but a Czech accordion player. Shall I go on? Just watch the slideshow and you’ll agree this was one for the books. Here’s A&M:

Caleb

Caleb is one of our 2009 senior models and he held the banner high for his shoot! He looked great but I can’t say that about his hockey bag….it downright stunk up the place for sure. That’s cool tho’. It’s all about the image right? He’s got that part down…. Here’s Caleb!

Lester & Arlyn

I see a couple of people with a lot going for them. Their names are Lester & Arlyn and we took a few shots of them on their wedding day. It’s always cool when someone asks to to shoot their wedding but when a photographer asks you to…. that’s the cherry on top! Isha Foss events did an amazing job of jazzing up the Virginia Beach Convention Center which always makes for an easy day for the photographer. Congrats guys and here’s to 2010!
