Remember His Name...

Now introducing Mr. Alec Shull!

Alec is a freshman in the Theatre program at UNC-G.  He is a good friend of mine from high school and seeing the growth from his freshman year in high school to now has been unbelievable!  He's an extremely talented actor so remember his name!  I have taken headshots for him in the past so when he contacted me asking to just shoot for fun, of course I jumped at the opportunity.

We shot using only natural light with a white reflector to for a little bit of fill light.

Spring 2012: Self Promo #3

Last week, I posted a sneak preview from this shoot but now that the project has been submitted and graded, here it is!

The wider, full body photos were lit with my SB-900 speedlight shot through an umbrella camera right.  The close up shot was lit with only natural window light.

Here's the final image I turned in:

Special thanks to Melissa Stanley for helping me bring my vision to life!

Spring 2012: Self Promo #2

For my second self-promo of the semester, I wanted to do a fashion shoot.  I've had this concept in mind for quite some time and finally set it in motion!  I was going for a warm, sunlit, serious fashion look and I hope I achieved it!
Victoria Cox was not only my beautiful model but also the very talented dress designer.  I think she did an amazing job on both aspects and I really appreciate all the effort put forth to make this shoot happen!

Photographer/Post-processing: Me

New York City Panorama

While on internship, I found the perfect view of NYC's skyline in Weehawken, New Jersey.  I had it set in my mind that I was going to shoot a nighttime panorama and about a week before I left New Jersey, I made it happen!  Fellow photographer Brandon Warren and I froze our butts off to get these shots.

This is a 13-photograph panorama, each photo with an exposure of 15 seconds at f/13.

October 1, 2011 Wedding: Allison Buie and Davis Ray

On October first of 2011, I teamed up with fellow classmate Natalie Lowdermilk to shoot the wedding of Allison Buie and Davis Ray.  This was the second wedding I have shot and I feel so lucky to have been a part of this special ceremony.

Best wishes to the beautiful, happy couple!
