October 10th group shoot at Studio 34

Arianne

Two weeks ago I took part in a group shoot at a studio organized by my friend Joe.  Initially we expected to have too many photographers and not enough models but it wound up being the other way around, even though a couple extra photographers showed up.  For Joe’s first foray in to hosting group shoots like this it went well and was a lot of fun.  I didn’t get to work with all the models that were there but it was good networking and good to hang out with some of the other area photographers I have known for a while.  I’m already working on some plans for future shoots with some of the models but I don’t know when those will come to fruition.

Zaftigg’s black eye

_T4G2463

Walking around with someone who has a black eye, real or not, isn’t the most comforting experience.  There are times where it seems like you can tell everyone is looking at you, wondering if you did it. [...]

Summer in the ROC 2010 is over…

_MG_4014

But the bruises, scrapes and limps will continue on. Sunday, August 1st was the last day of the big yearly meet in Rochester, NY when people from all over converge to hang out, see the sights and take a picture or two.  I didn’t see a lot and I didn’t shoot a lot but I’ve got the bruises, scrapes, bandage and hobble to make it look like I did a lot. [...]

Shooting Zaftigg at Durand Eastman Park

Take a model I’ve never worked with before, a park I haven’t spent much time shooting models at, a hot & humid day with intermittent downpours and mix.  The result is a very tiring but fun shoot and some interesting photos. [...]

Updates: projects, photos and more

So it seems I’ve fallen a bit behind here. Hopefully I can turn that around now and it won’t happen again for a while (from time to time it’s inevitable though!) to come.  Here’s just a brief update… A number of things are going on right now. Outside of the more important matters of real life, I’m working on building a ring light.  I’m cutting the fiber optics to length now and hope to have the actual ring head soon. [...]

Cold, gray and windy ponds

Waking up to a Saturday with weather most would consider miserable is sometimes exactly the sort of thing I need for a chance to go out and have some fun shooting.  I left for the shore of Lake Ontario with grand ideas only to find that by the time I got there the weather went from perfect to a completely monotone sky without any texture.  I took the opportunity to have some lunch before zipping off to Durand Eastman Park which seemed like the best place to mess around with some daytime long exposures and hopefully get some photos. [...]

Another shoot at the abandoned incinerator with Alex

This past Sunday, Alex and I returned to the incinerator to continue working on some things we started during our first shoot together (also at the incinerator, covered here).  My friend Joe came along again to help out and do some shooting of his own.  Unlike our last trip to the incinerator, the weather was considerably warmer and the ground was no longer covered in snow, making the hike down far less tiring. [...]

Alicia at the Eastman House

Semi-spontaneous shoots are fun, but they can also sometimes present some problems.  A week ago I met with Alicia and we went to the Eastman House to do some shooting, unfortunately we were blessed with unusual weather for the Rochester area.  The harsh light of a cloudless day wasn’t exactly what I had hoped for and it wasn’t what I remembered seeing on the forecast a couple days before either! [...]

I almost ruined my shoes at Black Creek Park

A bit over a week ago I went to Black Creek Park with Olivia and her assistant (aka boyfriend) and we trudged though more mud than anticipated to do some shooting.  It was a fairly spur of the moment shoot, we really didn’t have a location planned or specific shots in mind but we had some ideas. [...]

CC's pinups

Way back in the beginning of March I shot pinups of CC since it has been a long-time interest of her to pose for some.  Olivia, a mutual friend, did the makeup and hair for this adventure and I got to work with some better lighting equipment which made things a whole lot easier! [...]
