One of Many

This past weekend I had the privilege of photographing my friends, Becky and Tony, at a sort of nearby park. Tony is a photographer as well, so it was a little hard for him to be in front of the camera. The whole time we were shooting, in between Tony making faces and googly eyes, I was going for capturing the amount of love there is between these two. This image is when I caught them sneaking a kiss while awaiting my instruction for the next shot. This kiss is just one of many that Tony stole from Becky that night.

American Girl

Here is a little taste of some of what I do at the studio. Last week we photographed 60 or 70 little girls dressed up as their American Girl dolls. American Girl is a doll line that is popular with little girls. They can get dolls that look like them, and buy outfits that are the same as the dolls outfits. There is a fundraiser group here that puts on a fashion show of the girls in the outfits with the matching dolls. We photograph them in our studio as part of the fundraiser. It gets crazy when there are 5 little girls in here at once!! Especially when we have to deal with all 5 girls at a time, and their crazy moms! Each girl gets a 15 minute session, so its a great exercise to sharpen your studio skills with posing, lighting, and coming up with ideas. I made this collage to showcase some of my faves.
