It was still during the hot summer so we headed to a park early one morning for some great outdoor portraits. We stayed in the shade of a small tree to keep the bright sun off and I put up two lights to make this great balance of light. Later while we were shooting near […]

Amy has an impressive background working as a television broadcaster. Her on-air talent career includes working in the LA market behind the desk as a weekend anchorer. It was time she updated her headshots and that’s just what we did. We kept the formal shots traditional with a modern gray background and finished the shoot […]

What a fun idea! Jill invited all her gal pals over for her birthday and we did a photo shoot.

The intent was to do something […]

Ed came to me looking for some fresh shots for a few needs. The studio portrait was a given, but we also did a few location shoots to capture both formal and casual looks.
