At The Park

So back to Jersey!

I was asked to shoot an up and coming model that was willing to fall victim,Ahem, I mean was willing for me to shoot her. She recommended Branchbrook Park, in Newark, NJ. I had no idea where it was at, but I figured the internet has Google maps for a reason!

So off to the park. She was an amazing shoot and I had an absolute blast. I got absolutely dirty! It had rained (of course) and the ground was completely saturated!

But she was a true sport and new how to be in front of that camera! She loved it and I had an absolute blast. I did end up looking like I was 5 years old with the grass stained jeans, but it was definitely worth it.

We're already scheduled to do another shoot later on this month, so we'll see how that goes. I can't wait. Obviously more to come.

Some Early Work...

When I first picked up my camera, obviously I wanted to shoot everything and everyone. Some people really didn't want me to shoot them, but oh well. if they are not holding the camera, then I can't make any promises. Lol

So I was at the misses Godmother's house and obviously brought the camera...Something I noticed a lot of people say about my pics. I've been hearing a lot of "you always seem to capture the moment". I don;t know if I necessarily agree with them, but I'll leave that up for you guys to decide.

So The following pic is of the misses Godmother and her daughter in a very private moment. It only lasted for a split second but the outcome was very nice. to this day it's one of my favorite pics I've ever taken.

I've learned a lot since then (the ISO was ridiculously high...oh well) but I still look back at this pic amazed that i captured it. I hope you guys like it as well.

Doggie!!!!!

So we had a game night at a friends house, and I obviously showed up with the camera in case I needed to capture spirited playing. The star of the show ended up becoming Diamond the Beagle.

Hands down, the cutest dog I have ever seen. And friendly! I'm a cat person, so dogs ain't my thing.

So we were in the middle of the game when I realized that Diamond was minding her business on the couch, and I saw the opportunity and took it!

She was such a model! No direction was needed but she was acting like she was getting paid for this! Lol. After this the owner saw the pic and was blown away by what she saw.

If anyone's wondering the background was the leather sofa that Diamond was sitting on. Nothing fancy. Happy shooting fellas.

To The Rooftops

Wow the month of April sucked! Well at least the weather did. But I still found plenty of time to shoot more and get some more shots.

So I finally convinced the significant other to let me shoot her. She's out in Queens,NY and it was a perfect day. The weather was just right and there a=was plenty of light for me to work with. So only place we could shoot with some kind of sense of freedom was the roof to her building.

So after some time for her to get dressed (women...:-p) we finally made it out there and started shooting. I had a ton of fun and I am very happy how the pictures came out.

If you look carefully you might be able to catch a glimpse of Citifield as well. I wonder how many more years will it take for me to convince her to shoot again? Honestly, I have no idea. But it might be a while...a very long while...very VERY long while. LOL. Have a good one guys. Happy Shooting.
