More Modeling Shots

Modeling Portraits-The Shutterbug Kickoff!

Hello, hope everyone is well. I am posting some of the portraits for the Modeling Portraits downtown. We had an awesome time and didnt stop till we were exhausted.
I love when other people name my photos.. a lot of comments on facebook and I have learned that the photo on the right has been called "Old Hollywood" I absolutely love the idea of that!

This photo shoot was a way for me to get out of a creative rut and to help my model appreciate all the hard work she has done. I truly believe that at some point in a woman's life ..she needs to see her self in a different way, a different light that uplifts her.. I had a blast working with Lynnette. Her spirit was easy to capture, we spent over 4 hours in extreme heat to get these shots and she was up for ANYTHING I suggested. We both were able to have fun and be ourselves. Thank you Lynnette for believing in the both of us.

Hello, hope everyone is well.
I am letting you know that.. I am having my modeling portrait session downtown this Saturday. Im very excited to get this project underway. I have an amazing model and assistant who will be with me in the downtown area of Birmingham, AL.

This project is to evolve into a yearly event where anyone with a camera can join us to hone their skills or just come and hang out and share some creative ideas.

No fees, just photographers who want to photograph! Our next session will be the historic Alabama Theatre and light painting with models at night at Sloss Furnaces.

I intend for other guest professional photographers to join us on occassions if we can get the word out. So, retweek, like and repost on facebook and lets just be a fun group of shutterbugs!

If you would like to receive the Newsletter for this project only, please contact us throu any means you can find us and let us know.
Also I am looking for more models to join us on this .. If you are needing a portfolio, fresh photos, please contact me. I would love to have you with us. I do have means of getting great dresses that can help. When contacting us please send a photo.

Thanks!

I put together a little Cake Blog for you to just enjoy the creativeness all the other brides before you have went through. It is a long and creative process,, you have dreamed of a wedding for a long time. You have had ideas and perhaps are looking for a few new designs that may help you plan.
