Jenna Senior Studio Shoot

Posted on December 30, 2009

Wow, It has been a while since I have done a senior shoot and even longer since I posted to my Blog. This time of year is full of young children getting their Christmas portraits done for family holiday cards or as gifts for grandparents. Older teens are just so fun to work with, it usually takes a little while for everyone to warm up to each other and feeling comfortable but once we do great pictures are made.  This shot took about 2 hours but it felt like minutes.

So without further ado this is Jenna, a long time family friend, a friend and confidant to my daughter and our neighbor who as it turns out is a senior this year and I had the pleasure of shooting her Senior Portraits.

Here is a sneek peek of just a few of the great pics we got and I hope you like them Jenna.

My Daughter

Posted on August 16, 2009

Hello again, it has been a bit since I posted anything new, not that there hasn’t been anything going on I just have not been feeling very creative lately.

This post is centered around my daughter, Danielle. Every time I get ready for an event and I am trying something new, whether I rented a new piece of glass, a different backdrop or a new strobe I need to test it out first and I have a wonderful and beautiful model who is right there every time, Danielle. 

While going through these images I have gotten some amazing shots of her and I would love to share these with you. There will be more as photography is always changing and as I grow and my business grows I will have lots more equipment I will be buying and testing out.

Here are some of the standouts from the past 6 months

Getting ready to test out my new strobes and High Key backdrop. it takes a lot of work to be beautiful you know.

This was shot to create a poster for the Salon with the new hair color line All-Nutrient we started using. Very dramatic with the contrast of the background and the POP of the hair color. Love it!

This was another image we made looking for shots to use as posters for our new hair color line. This was done in studio with the new High Key White backdrop and stobes. Very lovely the way this brought out the hair color.

Just a fun shot, it is like a poster child for the teenage thought process and yes most of the time it is all about her.

We love you Danielle XOXOX!

Portrait Day at Hair Obsession

Posted on August 7, 2009

We had another great Portrait Party Day on July 25th at our salon, Hair Obsession in Leominster Mass and plan on making this a regualr occurence of like once a month, maybe come up with fun themes and add different activities for the kids that can be incorporated into the portraits.

This time I used a solid backdrop with the intent of masking out the background and adding fun backdrops to the image similar to Green Screen or ChromaKey photography.

The day was fun, the pictures came out great and most importantly everyone had fun.

Here a a few of my favorite shots from the day.
Mackenzie, she came in with the right attitude and outfit for this day and we had lost of fun.

Mom and Daughter Modeling Shoot

Posted on July 27, 2009

This was such a great shoot and I love how the shots came out.

We needed some modeling photos for their Comp Cards, Comp Cards are a marketing tool for actors and models to showcase themselves. We had turned the salon into a photo studio already for our portrait day on Saturday and it was so fun working with clients who know how to pose. We got some really great shots and here are some of my faves.

Lexie posing this was one of my faves from the day

I am going to start this off with a fun photo session I had mith my Niece and her boyfriend. We were looking for some new posters for the Hair Salon and thought what the heck, lets make our own. This was a little different for me but a lot of fun and Jimmy and Steph were awesome to work with.

Enjoy and let me know what you think
