We don’t shoot that many fashion runaway gigs but the chronicle asked us to cover Christian Lacroix’s new line up last Friday. Although it should be like shooting fish in a barrel, with the constant light changes, i found myself challenged to capture every dress that came down the runaway. I tend to shoot in Manual mode for most of my indoor work but i found that this mode burnt me few times during this shoot!
WPJA (Wedding Photojournalist Association) has an artistic branch where photo journalistic images are creatively enhanced to take the image to the next level. I won 2nd place for the getting ready category and 6th place overall, check out the rest of the competition and winners here.
With such a fine city hall as our, even ‘civil’ wedding are fine art weddings.
I am really terrible about entering contests but i am making more of any effort this year. It’s something that if i had more time, it would be an enjoyable experiences to go through my work and pick some favorites. alas, time not being on my side, it was a rush job to enter this recent contest hosted by the Artist Wedding Photojournalism. See more of my entries.
Another successful year with our photo station set up on the sidewalk. fortunately(?), there were so many people running on the sidewalk that a number of them became part of the shoot. You can see more on my blog or view the complete online gallery.
Being short helps me get down to their level. Kids are larger than life and should be photographed as so.
in the midst of all our busyness, i found some time to reminded myself why i took up photography and enjoyed helping a worthwhile non profit while doing what i love. It’s far too easy to forget the why while you’re trying to accomplish the how.

The Youth Orchestra celebrated it’s 25th anniversary and ask us to do some portraits their press releases. Even young musicians had busy lives and i only had a few minutes with each of them; such is the nature of ‘celebrity’ portraiture. I tried out a new portable lighting trick – two 580 flashes and an umbrella and i like the results thus far.
