Shots of Monica. In 15 mins.

For the last few months I’ve been buying up a bunch of old photo albums from the mid to late 1880’s. Why? Well, it’s sort of a long story, but it’s one part inspiration for my current work and another part that I’m using these old portfolio’s for ‘parts’ for my actual commercial portfolio’s that I’m being have made now… I’ll write more about that later, but for now here are a couple shots from some of these albums. I think it is so interesting how no one ever smiles in any of these photos… I guess the 1880’s was no time to joke! I liked these girls - old school twins… with some super rad hair.

So for about the last six months I’ve been working on a series that is 1920’s inspired - my take on that time period. Here are a few shots from my last round last Sunday. It was a really fun shoot the model was really fun and of course my usual team of help partners on this project was great!!

These are some fun shots I took for a band called - The Messengers - album cover. The guys were really cool and this whole shoot was a total blast.

These are a few shots from one of my first test shoots.  I like to think I’m a lot better now.  I didn’t even use a strobe set when I did these shots…. it’s harding shooting people with hot lights - especially when you don’t really have enough light.
