Editorial Fashion Photography

Finally the new issue of Harford County Style Magazine is on the shelves!  I shot the editorial fashion photography pages this time at a great location…Brian Bunce Barbers.  Originally I wanted to add a bit of 1940’s graphics to the images but found it was a bit too busy to the eye.  So, the actual magazine pages look a little different than this, but I loved the graphics and wanted to share those in my post.

Photography for actors and models.

Autumn is my favorite time to do photography for modeling composite cards.  Photography for actors and models is very different than portrait work and allows for a lot of creativity.  I had a wonderful time working with model Ally from L&M modeling and talent.  About 2 years ago I shot the images for her first modeling composite card and what a difference!  Photography for actors and models.

Beauty glamour photography

I love when people want to do beauty glamour photography sessions for themselves.  They might model, they might not.  Nothing is more fun that being able to make someone feel and look glamorous.  There are no rules, we just get to have a great day of makeup/hair/ and shooting.  What a great gift for someone or yourself!  Beauty Glamour Photography.

Fashion photography for HC Style Wedding Issue

We had an amazing amount of fun with this Marie Antoinette inspired shoot for HC Style Magazine.  The dresses were provided by Amanda Ritchie Bridal and Beauty and also K&B Bridal both in Harford County.  Hair by Lisa Jones-Butz of Subtle Rebellion salon + gallery and makeup by Gina Bateman.  These were done a few months ago…but I needed to add them to my website.  This fashion editorial was shot in Harford County Maryland.  Fashion photography for HC Style Magazine.

Fashion photography

What I miss most about shooting with film is getting in the darkroom and making my own black and white prints.  Fashion photography can be dramatic in color or B/W  but there is something about the look and the feel of true black and white imagery that is special.  It has a drama to it.  I worked for a short time (only because they only made it for a short time!) with a black and white polaroid slide film that you would process immediately with a small little crank machine and it would produce these amazing, grainy, B/W transparencies.  I LOVED it.   I still have my little machine and my film cameras hoping one day it might return.    I plan to do some personal testing with B/W for some new fashion images…so I’m always looking for interested hair/makeup/models to join me!!

Fashion editorial photography for HC Style Magazine

We had a great time doing this fashion editorial on a very hot, humid day in June.  Luckily all involved were good sports, particularly the beautiful Rebecca.  The Mt. Felix Vineyard has a gorgeous female mastiff as it’s mascot and she had just had puppies a few weeks before.  As we were finishing up our shoot one of the puppies came to visit.  Obviously we all thought this was adorable and Rebecca started to pose with the little guy.  The pup had other ideas, no interest in being a model and a very specific interest in her socks.  I snapped these adorable out-takes as he very impolitely stole the socks right off her feet!

I can’t show you the finished images since they have not yet been published in HC Style magazine.  However I really wanted to show you these funny shots that in the old days would have just been displayed in my darkroom for my own amusement.  These posts are a great way to share!   Fashion editorial photography is my absolutely favorite thing to do and I want to thank the models Rebecca and Ting Ting along with stylists Caitlyn Meyer and Lisa Jones-Butz.

 

 

Beautiful Bailey- model portfolio photography

I just worked with Bailey and what a beauty!  We did six looks to start her first modeling portfolio.  Model portfolio photography is one of my favorite types of shoots.  We spend approx. 3-4 hours shooting in the studio and outdoors to create images that are used on Zed cards, also called composite cards and websites.
