no more paper backdrops;-)
just thought i would share my backdrop system, which i really dig on. i used to spend tons of money on rolled paper for my backdrops... i switched to vinyl rolls which is great, because, they roll or fold up easy, they don't wrinkle, if they get dirty, i just wipe them down with a spray cleaner and they are as good as new. plus have you shot with paper? it sucks!
plus when most of my shoots are done, my backdrop looks like this on the floor...not a problem ;-) i get all my vinyl at fabric stores...

new bio pics...finally
so, i am much better behind the camera than i am in front of the camera. but nate was nice enough to work with me again. i say again, because we were shooting today and laughed that it was about 6 years since he shot my last formal portrait.
thanks nate, i will call you in about 6 years!

sony, digital tech and super low light
had the pleasure of shooting a very fun yet challenging shoot at sony again this week. i decided to have a digital tech on site to manage the downloads and start processing the images. certainly makes the job easier and more enjoyable to edit.
but talk about low light, here is carolyne working the 24 inch imac. to set it up we actually needed to use my iphone for a flash light to find the plugs and usb ports. game developers like it dark!
but the light did turn out to be very fun light to shoot in.

baltimore fitness shoot
here in Baltimore md shooting some fitness images. for what we were looking for, Baltimore is great for backdrops. have a nice run down feel with some cool urban scapes. fortunately i had my brother andrew reilly producing the shoot and he knows all the great places to shoot in Baltimore. thanks to mark for the modeling.
on the technical side, these are all shot with very light weight speedlights. the lighting kit we have is not very portable so the fast set up and breakdown of the speedlights work pretty well. for the most part all of the shooting was in pretty deep shade so it made it pretty easy for the speedlights to over power the ambient light.

kemo sabe for the cohn group
how can you not love shooting food, drinks, and pretty people having fun!! the challenging thing about shooting restaurants are that they usually have to open for business so the shoots are fast! I had an hour to create as much as we could! starting to get hungry!
