Here are a couple from a quick shoot I did with dancer, Bradley Rhoton, just before I went to Australia for six weeks. We only had a few hours in Wilmington, but it was great getting to meet and work with him. He’s a very talented guy.

I absolutely love the look of film and what it’s capable of when used correctly. So over 4th of July weekend, I bought a couple rolls and pulled out my grandfathers old Canon 35mm to start practicing. Here’s what I ended up with! I will definitely be shooting on it again soon! It’s amazing.

Here’s an afternoon in Apex/Raleigh with my good friends Shawn and Jill. I can’t wait to photograph their wedding next year!

A couple weeks ago, I got to travel up to Boone, North Carolina and be a part of Josh and Charlotte’s awesome mountain wedding! They were married at St. Bernadette’s in Linville and had their reception at Appalachian Ski Mountain, which was quite an awesome spot for a summer party! It feels great to be back in NORTH CAROLINA!!!

It’s been a crazy few weeks over here and I’m now back in North Carolina excited about the weddings I have coming up! This weekend I’m off to Boone to photograph my friends, Josh and Charlotte’s wedding at App Ski Mountain. Good times

Just before Genna and I set out across I-40, we spent an afternoon shooting with Amber and got some great images! She always does a fantastic job. We did a few different looks and Genna Poletti once again manned the makeup guns. If ya’ll need makeup in NC, send her an email! Here are a few of my favorites from the day…

I’ve been slacking with the blog lately, but I’ve been staying busy! Here are a few from my recent session with the awesome, Erin Condry! She wanted some headshots to update her resume and then some fun ones so we spent the afternoon at a few locations around Thousand Oaks. Genna did an awesome job with the makeup and you can see her excellent work at www.gennapolettimakeup.wordpress.com

Before sunset yesterday, I met up with my new friend, Jen of Perfectly Pinned Photography, here in Thousand Oaks to photograph her and her kids, Freddy and Cameron. We met up at a really cool spot off of Kanan Rd and shot in the chilly California breeze for about 45 mins. Here are some of my favs!

I’m really excited to finally post these pinup photos! Last week, Genna (Genna Poletti Makeup Artistry) and I photographed our friend Jen, who did an amazing job modeling! The shoot was SO much fun! This was the first of two different setups from the day and we shot these in our living room here in Thousand Oaks.

For my photog followers, I used a simple crosslight setup. I had an AlienBee AB800 with beauty dish and 40 degree grid for my key and an SB800 behind for the backlight. If you have any specific questions, feel free to shoot me an email! I’d be happy to help.
