Outdoor photo shoot

Carly Ross

I spent last Sunday shooting with Carly around Virginia Beach. We went to Red Wing Park and Chick’s Beach in Virginia Beach for a variety of shoots. This girl is real fun to shoot with and you can check some of her work here.

Downtown Norfolk shoot

April 13, 2009

Cris and Tiff alley

I spent some of my time yesterday (Easter Sunday) with Cris and Tiffany. Their first wedding anniversary is coming up shortly and we made a trip to Downtown Norfolk in Virginia for some shots. It was a great day but the wind was killer. We walked around for about two hours and we talked and I shot as we enjoyed a nice day out. Congrats to them on their first year as hubby and wife.

I guess the rain was good after all. It allowed me to get this amazing shot at today’s photo shoot. This was shot with a Nikon D300 and a 17-55 2.8 @ 5.6, Alien Bee – 800 as my main light camera right and an SB-800 for the backdrop.

Norfolk Model photo shoot

Norfolk, Virginia photo shoot

Norfolk, Virginia photo shoot

So here it is like I promised. I went to Harbor Park in Norfolk, VA for a photo shoot I had in my agenda.
Originally, I was hoping for sunny skies and a warm day. However, that wasn’t the case. (I know you saw that one coming after that sentence.)
So it was cloudy and cold, I forgot my jacket and I forgot a tripod for one of the SB-800′s so I had to improvise.  After about 30 minutes playing with the flashes I decided to go with the natural light since it was overcast. The results were amazing. I used a long tele for the shots and shot it wide open @ 2.8.
It was a nice location and I was done pretty quick. There’s more to come so stay tuned.

A little bit Old School…

November 9, 2008

 

3015988202 392585f708 o A little bit Old School...

I’ve always liked the old US Navy posters.  You know? Where they used pretty looking girls and strong shirtless sailors to recruit people; often times called pin up girls.

I’ve never had the opportunity to do a themed shoot like this but hey, guess what? It happened about a week ago. I had the chance to work with a model who was up for this kind of shoot. I really like how the bright colors “pop”and the fun and inviting feel.
I would love to have a project with this kind of style to work with. I need to start writing down all these ideas for future reference. -hint-hint-…..

Enjoy!

-Herson
