One light or 2 light wonders

With all that can be found online for the many ways to use lights and types of lights and configurations...it's still amazing how much can be done with either one or 2 speedlites which is typically all I use. I have 3 but generally end up just using 2 at the most or one and a reflector.

Friday nite I met with some friends that wanted some headshots. We had a blast riding around with me yelling STOP HERE! At a few places that just screamed "I'm a backdrop!" One was a beautiful red building and then we went to the local base and stopped at two ponds/lakes. There was a storm brewing the entire time so I had to move quick each time and get things out and set up. We only made it to 3 spots when the sky literally broke loose.

Here are some of my favorites from the shoot.






On Saturday I went to see an old friend I'd not seen in a while. We thought it would be fun to get outside for a little quick shooting amidst her daughters running rampant. Geez kids are fast! I was lucky to even get these shots at all. I used one light for some shots but most were strictly sunlit. It was 90+ with 100% humidity so we couldn't stay out there long for fear of melting. After I put my equipment up, the smallest one hopped in the little wading pool - too bad I had put my camera up!

Profits of Doom ROCK!!!

A few weeks ago I did a shoot with a local up-and-coming band called Profits of Doom and it was way more of a blast than I even expected. One of the members, Bob, runs the Grand Opera House in Macon and so we had the whole thing to ourselves. I knew there were more possibilities than we could handle in a nite so I did what I could in a 2 hour time frame. We shot on the stage, in the seats, in the boxes, in the front entrance, in the lobby, up in the gallery, on top of the sound booth and out front out on Mulberry Street. If we hadn't have run late I could have gone on for hours. I definitely look forward to doing a shoot with those guys again. They were SUCH a great bunch!!!

Here are the majority of the photos. ENJOY!

Senior Portrait Shoot on a beautiful day

Yesterday I had the opportunity to work with a wonderful, sweet and gracious young girl that graduates next week. We had a blast doing the shoot and she was wonderful about doing any pose I asked of her. It was a wonderful experience and I look forward to doing more shoots with people!!! I am very pleased with how these turned out and I'm happy to report that the girl's mom also loves them.

Enjoy!

Bass After Party Photos

Saturday I went to an "After" Party, really it was a "We already got married but since nobody was able to attend because it was out of the country, we want you to celebrate with us" Party... LOL

Anyway- it was absolutely wonderful and I got more moved making the photo show afterwards than when I took the actual pics. Now I'm the only one left to get hitched and well..... I'm waiting!

Without further delay- here are a few of my favorites....
