Sneak Preview

Here is a screen shot of some images i am working on from yesterday's shoot for iFashion Network. Still have some ways to go on retouching the images but I thought I should share. The shoot was great fun tons of food, I had a great assistant who is also a Doctor, yup you heard right an MD was my PA lol only in NY will post the finished images at a later date.

Trained yet?

I do not know what to call this post, shot this i think two weeks ago for a models port. This image is still in progress, meaning I am still retouching it but i felt like putting it up. Like all commerical images it's it will never really be complete without the right text, we are trained that way i guess without the right text, its not really right, you can look at it, but something seems off. So you just have to love advertising from a young age we are trained, I should know, fashion ads are the reason I picked up a camera in the first place.

Fashion Week

Love fashion week, so much planned for one week, tons of shoes which take months to plan for 15 minutes, got to love it. I do not like winter fashion week, no interest in it, but summer and fall fashion week when the weather is amazing, got to love every second of it, people dress better and the atmosphere is better, love it, love the access, love the parties!

Landscapes

I guess you cannot be a photographer in NY without taking some landscape images at one point in you stay here. The Brooklyn bridge, Times Square, Washington Square, soo many landmarks that you have seen since you were a in diapers even if you have never even been to NY. The first time I saw NYC was in a movie, now I live here.

Street Photography

New york is a wonderful city but you already knew that. There is something about walking up to a complete stranger in NYC, and asking them to pose for a photo that is such a rush.

Most people you ask are just more than happy to stop for you but there is a select few who act as if you are paparazzi. When I look to shoot someone on the street I look for certain character; I do not care if there fashionable or not just want there face for the most part, street portraits.

Music Industry

I have alot of friends in the music industry... man i though my business was cut throat that industry is on another level, like fighting for life boats on a sinking ship.

But here are two upcoming artists that i know off there both very talented and I hope they make it on one of the life boats!
