My Future NY Ranger!!!

I took several action shots of my son playing his favorite position... Goalie, for my "If It Moves Shoot it Project". I have to say this was one of my favorite action shots of him and yes he blocked the goal successfully!  The outdoor fluorescent lighting has presented some challenges for me but I am learning how to work in that lighting and it has become a fun challenge to overcome! I really liked shooting for this project because it gave me the opportunity to really explore many different ways to shoot interesting subjects in motion. My future NY Ranger Goalie was definitely the best!!!

It was really fun to have the models throw on some of my jerseys for this shot! 

Saturday Fun at the ASMP Fashion Shoot

  

Saturday was super fun and I learned a lot at the Brenner Photography Studio in Plainview. I arrived at 8:45am and stayed until 3pm. The models were so fun to work with too, whether it was in the dressing room picking the right attire or lipgloss to having fun with the props I brought on set! Professor Naideau and Jay Brenner were awesome teaching me about lighting, where to stand, and which lenses work best in the studio.  All of my shots are beautiful and I can't wait to do it again.  I look forward to working with the models from Hampton Models very soon!! Thank you Jay Brenner for hosting such a fun workshop!!!  

The Patient Hunter

The Praying Mantis is a beautiful gift from nature! It is a representation of peace, patience, and stillness, all of which I am learning are important in photography to be successful. This is my first attempt to use photoshop for my class.  I took this photo for my Shape, Line, and Texture project and it happens to encompass all three in an obvious manner.  My model was a delight to work with and gave me many poses! ~I Love nature~

Inside the Fashion Show

While attending the Banana Republic Fashion Show in the City during Fashion Week I kept my camera on hand and ready with my light and shadow project in mind! Not only was it a lot of fun but I learned a lot from other photographers from around the world on perspective and the models were fun to work with as well! This season brings us bright colors and fabulous textures to enjoy while still keeping us warm and fashionable!

Pure Love

I love the ocean!!! It is strong and powerful yet soothing and gentle! I took this photo while working on my light and shadow project at Gurney's in Montauk and couldn't resist the beauty of this magnificent sight! I love how blue the water is and the texture of the waves as they dance their way to shore. I am still experimenting with the different settings on my camera and how exactly they affect the images I create. I am very happy with this shot, and although it was not technically taken the way it should have been, it still inspires my creativity!
