Behind the Scenes {Palm Beach County Band Photo-Shoot}

Wanted to share some photos of a really fun "work" day in one of my favorite locations in Palm Beach County, my friends' self-sustaining garden.

I was there technically to take one photograph.

Local band, Black Finger, had a new album about to be released and they hired me to create a promotional image for the back cover.

Enjoy a few of the images I took on the day of the shoot:

The gracious (and expectant) hosts, Jomarie, Greg (lead guitar/vocals), and Lemmy.

Modeling is tough work! Waiting around for the table to be set.

OK, all set...

Wait, maybe we should move it to better light...

Watching all the action. :)

Loved the amber color of this honey!

"Want some kale?"

Andy's beautiful steel guitar in front of a fragrant wall of jasmine.

One year later. Marissa (flutist) and Sean (bass), happily ever after. If you follow my blog at all, you may recognize these two from THIS post of their amazing wedding.

Last shot before I had to run off to photograph a gig in Ft Lauderdale for the Broward Palm Beach New Times.

View all of the images I shot of vintage bike night and Skinny Jimmy and the Stingrays at Five Point Lounge, HERE.

THANK YOU to the members of Black Finger for including me in the excitement of their fourth album release! If you would like to hear their Americana/blues/rockin' new music, check it out here, or on iTunes.

Palm Beach County Photographer Documents Three Rockstar Mom-to-Be's

PLEASE READ:New Times Magazine article.

So we did this photoshoot a couple months ago. The girls were amazing and so full of energy! Thank you to each of them for allowing me to document this special time in their lives! Also, many thanks to Courtney Hambright for loving the photo in the first place.


Jezek, Snow, and DiValentine

My favorite part of being a photographer is learning to see the passion and abundance that others are grateful for in their lives. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a photographer, and this allows me to see the spirit in others. To me, this is the essence of each photo project I embark upon. Thank you Courtney for combining my photographic vision of the beautiful spirits which Tiffany, Susan and Valerie embody, into an alluring portrait of words.

AND last but certainly not least is a huge THANK YOU (capital letters!) to one of my mentors "in the biz," Rhea Lewis. Rhea was the one who supplied the "l," "o," "v," and "e" for this photoshoot both literally and figuratively speaking. I knew how Susan was feeling when she said in the article that I made them feel "so special and beautiful" because this is exactly how I felt when I had the opportunity to be photographed by Rhea during my bridal portrait session.

Look for more of this session on Rhea's facebook page

Rhea has taught me so much from the business of photography to the amazing talent it takes to create a fine art baby portrait. So thank you Rhea for all of your help with this shoot and beyond! :)

"Love Music" Maternity Session

I couldn't be happier with how the images turned out in my latest triple maternity session! These girls are all affiliated with John Ralston's Invisible Music which is why I wanted to do a music themed image. The lucky babies have already been exposed to some of the greatest music in South Florida ;) Just watch this Invisible Music clip as an example:



Do you agree?

p.s. The clip was filmed by Robert Rutherford, aka "Gingerman" Please check out more of his clips as he's got great dedication to filming what music is what here in S. Florida. He's also a nice guy.

Pregnancy Photo-shoot

Hi again. I wanted to share this photo. I did a fine art maternity session a couple weeks ago and could not have asked for a more beautiful woman to photograph! Unfortunately I can't share most of the pictures because they are nudes, but I wanted to share just these two.
