Take a break to recharge

 Good morning, and Happy New Year. 

It is time to put our best foot forward, and get going. I take a much needed break at the beginning of every year to recharge, and remember why I do what I do. the best way to do that is to do some of the things you used to to be before what takes up most of your time now. 

I got a new iPad, and I started doing some digital art again. Getting back to some of the things you love to do will really help with your (for me photography) Try it out you won't be disappointed. Have a great one.

Fashion photography in harsh mid-day sun

You will hear from so many photographers that shooting in the mid-day sun is the worst. I for one do not believe that. The time of day has nothing to do with the way your photo turn out. there is good light and bad light, simple as that.


I shot these photos at freedom tower in Manhattan, NYC. No flash, just me and the sun. I used the white of the skeletal sculpture has fill light, and the sun as a key light and that's it. 




 I used 24-70 at 24 to distort the perspective to get the look I wanted.
When you think you have the wrong light... you just might lol. All jokes aside
all you have to do is find the good light for what it is you want to shoot and boom there you go.
  


Pink dress photo shoot

This photo shoot was taken at the celery farm in New Jersey. I wanted to have a real contrast between the dress and the environment, and I felt the pink and green would have a great juxtaposition.
The dress is from H and M and the slides are from Zara.

Joy of the holidays

Please remember the joy of the holidays. Don't forget to enjoy the company of others this season.
I know life can be stressful at times, but all things will pass. Sometime you just have to laugh it off and move on. So many people don't even have the option to be stressed, because they are no longer with us. So please love and enjoy the life you have, and just relax. check you later happy holidays.

Music that motivates

Hey everyone! How are ya? Having a great end of the years I hope.

I was thinking what really gets me going, and for the life of me all I could think of was music. I know big surprise, but it's so true. Have you ever heard that song that just speaks to you creative soul? Shoot! I have full albums that speak to mine. Radiohead anthing, but specifically OK Computer.
OK computer is a master piece in my eyes.

I have what I call the quick fix shot to the vein songs to get the creative juices going.
The songs are has follows,

The  Rolling stones - Gimmie Shelter : for that old school feel, when I want to get my Annie Leibovitz on.

ACDC - Thunderstruck: for those intense photo sessions, and when I'm skateboarding.

Beyonce - Single ladies: for when I want to empower my clients, this song always gets people moving.

The list goes on and on from Nas, lady gaga, Jay z, led Zeppelin, and Queen just to name a few.
I would like to know what music gets you going. Might be something I never heard. check ya later

Get out there, shoot!

Hi everyone, I have just a word of advice today. Go out and shoot. I mean really go out and find that meaningful image. Find the image that you just have to take, and the one that gets your heart pumping.

Good looking photos (exposure triangle explained)

Hey! What's going down everyone. Today I'm here to talk about the exposure triangle.
Ever wonder why your photos are coming out really grainy, too dark, too light or you just can't get that blurry background? Most of you may already know about ISO, shutter speed, and aperture, but for those who are new to photography this is for you.
