Dessert!

I shot this cheese cake for my first assignment in my Advertising Photography class. We are required to shoot some type of desert, and to have a clear sense of time and place. My lighting set up got a little complicated but some times thats what you have to do to get the look you want. I am pleased with how it turned out. Thanx for lookin, let me know what you think!

Fire House Snow

I did this shot of my sister's miniature snow village on christmas eve night. I couldn't wait to use my new lens!

Fall Fashion Shoot

I did this shot for my 5th self promo. I wanted to do an ad for a new line of clothes coming out this fall for a store like American Eagle Outfitters. I have been familiar with their advertising and photography for a few years and have always wanted to try. I am pretty happy with how this one turned out. Thanx to my girlfriend Catherine for modeling for me and once again doing a great job!!

Coke Zero

For my 6th self promo I shot some coke zero. I shot it with a hasselblad h-10 with a didgital back.

Laura

This is a shot from a senior portrait shoot I had with Laura last weekend. This one is in North Davidson, at the last location we went to. She ha to stand still for this one because we were running out of light, but it turned out good. It was a fun shoot!

Why did the chickens cross the road?

For my photographic illustration class, we had to shoot 12 eggs in any way we liked. I did a 10 second exposure at f/1.8. The eggs were lit by a street light in the distance. I also shot this in the rain and my good buddy John Couch held the umbrella over me and my camera while I shot. Thanx mane!

The Xbox 360 Elite

For my Self Promo 4, I decided to shoot an Xbox. I was originally planning to do a normal studio shot. Then i talked to my instructor, Chuck. He told me to NOT shoot a normal boring studio shot, and he really challenged me to do something no one had ever done, and make it exciting. So you might could say i did that, or atleast tried. This photo consists of 3 separate images. One shot for the smoke, and one for the fire. They were both shot at the same location. The third shot was the xbox which i shot in the studio. I did my best to match the light in the studio with the light that i used on location (which was my car head lights). The smoke came from a bottle rocket(firework) that my friend Daniel held down for me. The fire came from gasoline. We had t try it only 3 times to get it right!! Over all I was pretty happy with how real we were able to get it to look.
