Last night we worked with Brian Fockler as part of our FACES! Project and here’s a few of the shots we were able to capture.

For this project I wanted to get a bank of facial expressions from our participants, from neutral look to various other ones that will bring out different characteristics of the face.

Lately we have been revisiting our photo catalogs and stumbled upon a photo of Maria that we had not selected to edit at the time and decided to work our magic on it.

Above is the result of the photo Crystal edited and we hope you like it. We titled it ‘Goodbye Summer’. To us it looks like an advertisement you would see in a magazine for a hair or skin product, but overall we love the effect given to the photo and we think it looks awesome.
We’ll be revisiting our photo catalog and we’ll be reposting a few that have been done, so keep visiting the blog and tell us what you think by commenting below!
Over the weekend we had a model photo shot with Raynard with fashion stylist Shon D.

It was Raynard’s first model photo shoot to get his portfolio started and was able to take instructions, keep and open mind, and get through the shoot with a lot of great shots. This particular photo shoot focused primarily on a black and white series.

It’s almost been a year this month since we last shot with Nixon. The first time we shot with her was last August and it mainly focused on head shots, this time we focused more on her body art and tattoos.

The first time we shot with Nixon she only had her chest tattoo and over the past year it has definitely expanded to cover other parts of her body.

A few days ago we worked on taking a few actor headshots for Nathanael, an active and experienced actor in the local area of Virginia Beach, that needed to get his recent acting headshot taken.

His photo session comprised of simple headshots and looks that focused on getting his signature smile. The session lasted for about a half hour and Nathanael was able to his top two shots which later we converted into black and whites as he requested.

A few days ago, Crystal and I shot with Tara Wehmeyer a local model for our last minute casting call for a photo shoot. Tara was great to work with and it was a very easy going session. Her experience, although just under a year in the industry, came through as if she has already been doing it for years. She was able to mold her body to fit the shots that I wanted to take and the shoot went along without a hitch.
Our goal that evening was to capture closeup headshots to capture her natural beauty – minimal makeup (which she did her self) and had her keep her hair straight, and lips at neutral. We then moved on to full body shots with her longsleeve top and her fitted jeans – those turned out so well with the black & white finish.
