High Fashion / Couture Shoot...

Another awesome High Fashion Couture shoot with the East Coast Artists! Makeup, hair & styling by the wonderfully talented Laura Marino / Laura Marino Studios. This woman never disappoints and always comes up with the most amazing looks for our models. She is flawless! And none of this would be possible without all of her hard work and dedication!

A big thank you to all of our models: Meagan, Morgan, Annaliese & Katie.

Photographers: Jared, Vanessa, Michael, Jake and myself! See more from this shoot here.

Editorial Fashion Shoot...

A couple previews from a recent Editorial Fashion shoot with the East Coast Artists group. We had a great time in the studio with models Renee and Mandie. It's always nice to get together with fellow photographers and let our creativity flow.

A big thanks to our models: Renee & Mandie! And our photographers: Jared, Vanessa, Jussara and John. More previews here!

Kiss N Makeup Minerals...

A really fun test shoot for Kiss N Makeup Minerals here in Central New York. Owner Cara Keith Higby brought her line of makeup over to the studio so we could see the photographic capabilities of the mineral makeup. She did a makeover on our model Gabby and then we went into the studio and did our test shoot.

I was pleasantly surprised by how nice this makeup photographs, I love the natural glow and radiance it gives to the models skin. And it looks very natural too.

If you would like to purchase products from the Kiss N Makeup Mineral line click here to start shopping. All of the makeup is made and packaged right here in Central New York by Cara.

Our model Gabby looks stunning!

Apple Orchard shoot with the East Coast Artists

A fall fashion shoot on location with my East Coast Artists group at Apple Grove Farm out in Mexico, NY! We had such an amazing time shooting here despite a little bit of rain and drizzle and the cold temperatures. The models were such troopers braving the cold and rain for this shoot. Thank you all ladies! You were FAB!

The location was so PERFECT! Apple trees, lots of tractors, a barn, crates and other cool stuff. It was just an incredible shoot!

And after the shoot I think we all headed to the gift shop and bakery to pick up some goodies. I bought a homemade apple pie! Yummy!

A huge "thank you" to our beautiful models: Alicia, Lisa, Keria, Morgan and Aubrey! Our awesomely talented photographers Nicole, Kelly, Tristi and Kami. And especially to Mark, the owner of Apple Grove Farm for allowing us to shoot on your property!

Style Armory Square Fashion Show

I had the pleasure of attending and photographing the Style Armory Square Fashion Show at the historic Landmark Theater in Syracuse. It was an awesome show hosted by Amy Robbins from 93Q and sponsored by Gray Goose Vodka, Greatbrewers.com and Inspired Designs by Lisa.

The show featured a variety of fashions from boutiques located in Armory Square and showcased the 2011 Spring Collection from designer Lisa Marie Butler of Inspired Designs by Lisa.

Turning Heads in Downtown Syracuse...

Had a fantastic shoot with the beautiful and talented Megan a few weeks ago ( so I'm a little behind on the blogging). Model, photographer and makeup artist extraordinaire! And at 6 feet tall, drop dead gorgeous she was stopping traffic downtown. Even women were approaching us on the streets.

We did a high fashion shoot in downtown Syracuse. I love the urban look and of course she had some great outfits. We walked around downtown to a few of my favorite places and shot along the way, changing clothes in the alley when needed.

Here are a few from our shoot. More on my Facebook here.

K Glam Model Shoot { BLOG }...

On Saturday, January 17th I had the pleasure of attending a group model shoot hosted by Kelly of K Glam Photo Studio. She organized the event and provided the models, location and makeup artist. All I had to do was show up with my camera.

Every once in a while, when time permits I try to work group model shoots into my schedule. It's a great way to practice your craft, play with new lighting techniques and try out new poses. This was one of those times and I'm very pleased with the results.

I had never worked with any of these models previously. They were all FABULOUS! And they had some amazing clothes too!

Models: Michelle, Morgan, Jennifer, Amy & Shawna
