Studio Lighting Books…

We’ve been getting a lot of e-mail this week from former students and family of former students asking us to help them out with Christmas shopping.  I’m going to put together a list soon but I’ll start out by listing a few books that are my favorites.

       

Sandy In Glasses

Sandy came into the studio again today.  I tried out a new lighting setup and really liked the results.  I haven’t gone through all the images yet but here’s a first look at one of the shots I liked from the session. Diane did all of the hair and makeup.

Sandy

A brand new model, Sandy, came into the studio today.  This was her first time in a studio and her first photoshoot ever.  We had a lot of fun getting to know her.  She did a terrific job and we’re looking forward to many more shoots in the future.

Hotel Balcony

Here’s the view from our hotel balcony in Crescent City, CA.  I shot this late one night.  It was great to spend some time by the ocean.

We just spent two weeks driving up the pacific coast.  It was a great break from the daily grind.  We stopped in San Francisco, Crescent City (pictured above) and Seattle.  We also spent some time in Las Vegas.  Spamalot was a great show!

Teresa

I had another great session with Teresa today.  Diane did some great work and I really like the images we captured.  Here’s one of my favorites.

Shoot with Sam

Yesterday I had the opportunity to shoot a new model, Sam Moreno.  She was a lot of fun to work with.  Sam is just starting her modeling career and shows a lot of promise. Here’s one of the shots from yesterday.
