A couple months ago, I blogged about shooting my long time friend, Christina's Maternity session. Well her son Ryder finally arrived and I also was given the honor of shooting his Newborn Session. These were all taken on location in Christina's living room and kitchen table.
I absolutely love photographing Newborns. A great tip to consider is that generally the best time to shoot newborns is within the first 7-10 days of their birth. Newborns are usually sleeping most of the time during this period which allows us as the photographers to easily pose and "shape" them without disturbing the peace.

The Basement Strobist: Episode 2
My short web series based on introducing amateur photographers to off camera lighting has been a great success. Episode 2 has now been uploaded which discusses methods on triggering off camera flash.
Episode 3 will be posted soon which will be about light stands and booms.
Enjoy!

Simplicity and Rock n' Roll
I consider myself on the advanced side of artificial lighting and design. Whether it be lighting a scene for a local independent film or playing with off- camera strobes, lighting is "my thing" and I love every minute I get to experiment and work with it. After all, Photography literally translates to "the study of light."
I finally splurged and purchased some studio lights to assist me in times when small speedlights and flashes won't get the job done. This has been a long time in the making and I have done hours and hours of research in finding what would work with my workflow and niche.
In the near future, I'll post a blog about the strobes and went with along with a complete review and examples. I am not gearing this post about it simply because I haven't shot with them enough yet to gauge an opinion.
For this week's blog, I going to recap one of my recent shoots in the studio with Mckenzie, a young and ambitious model with true professionalism and mutual respect. This was our first shoot together, hence the images are clear, concise, and clean cut showcasing her natural beauty and personality.
