styled bridal shoot | portrait.

After being able to partake in my first styled shoot a little over a month ago, a Waldo inspired theme (check it out HERE and HERE) I’ve been fixated on trying to keep shooting some personal projects and making sure to surround myself with creative and passionate individuals to create art.  The team that did the #waldo shoot, joined forces again, plus a few new faces, and a different model. The result was out of this world.  For this shoot, we looked for inspiration in the Bride of Frankenstein, Corpse Bride and various elements of Tim Burton. I want to thank the team for being so passionate about this project and their hard work, vision and dedication.  I am so proud to have been apart of it.

For now, here is part one of two.

As mention in an earlier post, today was my first shoot using a speedlite as opposed to studio strobe. At first I was a little unsure how the pictures would turn out, as my mindset on lights was “bigger is better”. But after seeing the the finished product, the results exceeded way beyond my expectations. STOKED.

let’s do this.



a HUGE thanks goes out to Jen. Thanks homie. ;)
