Behind the Scenes // The March Issue!
Last week I photographed a super-cool fashion shoot for the March issue of Metro Magazine! The concept is SO much fun, I can't wait for you all to see the final product this spring!
We shot a Orbit Studios, which is an oh-so-lovely studio space! I fell in love with the giant sweep there and just HAD to use it for this shoot!
Special thanks to Louisa for taking these behind-the-scene photos from our day! If you want to see more, head on over to Fashion Editor, Mary O'Regan's blog!
As always, I couldn't have pulled off this magic if it wasn't for the help of one AMAZING crew:
Styling // Erick DeLeon of Modern Day Dapper
Makeup // Fatima Olive
Talent // Tom Sellwood, Wehmann & Orlando, Vision
Assistants // Louisa Podlich, Brandon Werth, Collin Hughes
Publication // Metro Magazine
Location // Orbit Studios
And we couldn't help but have a little fun on the side....
Behind The Scenes // Winter Fashion Test Shoot
Woo Hoo!!! We just wrapped up THE most inspiring test shoot!
It was honestly, one of the simplest shoots I have ever put together. It all began when Ignite, which is an amazing agency in town, sent me over a photo of a new guy they had just signed on. This model had no experience - which is honestly some of my most favorite subjects to work with. Simply, because they have no idea what they are doing yet and they also don't have a pre-conceived-notion of what a model is 'suppose' to do. This particular model had the most amazing freckles, and I dreamed up this winter fashion spread all around his look!
Erick, once again, worked his magic on the styling and my current FAVORITE store for menswear, Black Blue lent us all of our amazing looks!!
The photographs were shot with all film cameras. We used both a 35mm camera - the Canon FT-QL and a Medium Format 500C Hasselblad (which, for the record, is like a little slice of heaven to look through that viewfinder!)
Our film was: Velvia 100F Fujichrome and Fuji Pro 400H
The best part about this shoot for me, and probably the reason it was so inspiring was just how simple it was! We didn't need to worry about downloading cards or even looking at the camera! It was just me, a window full of natural light, one model and an amazing camera! That, my friends, is what it is all about!
Moto Test Shoot // Behind The Scenes!
With every shoot that we do, I try to have someone there catching the behind-the-scene moments!! Our new photographer for our sister company, Louisa, captured some sweet shots! When she showed some to me, I thought, "This is totally why I hired you..." She is so good! I thought I would share some with you and to see more, head over to Louisa's personal blog!
