I Can't Believe It's March Already!
Wow! It's March already and I haven't posted a single photo in 2010. Slackin'! Well it has nothing to do with my not having taken any photos. I have been busy with some fun gigs. First off I had the chance to shoot with Jessica, a Marine Lt. currently serving our country in Afghanistan. She was home on leave and on a very cold December morning in Colorado we shot at the Morrone Ranch. Jess is such a joy to work with. Second is a model you should recognize from prior projects, Ashley. Ashley is a willing soul that has fun shooting just about anything I dream up. She is one tough and awesome girl! Thanks to both Jessica and Ashley! I appreciate both of you!
Ashley in the Studio
Ashley & I worked together earlier this year and that went well enough that we decided to work together again. I had this picture in my head that Ashley would look good in a man's suit. Although she is a genuine beauty she is a confessed Tomboy. She & I work out at the same place doing Muay Thai Kickboxing and I can tell you she is one tough woman. Did I mention she also tends bar at a biker bar? And... No. It's not a real cover 
Catalogue Shoot for Dara Gear and Tran's Kickboxing & Fitness
Recently I did a photo shoot with Fitness Model Morgan Tran & Master H.D. Tran for Dara Gear, a Muay Thai & Fitness Clothing Line. Bridget Nannen is Dara Gear and also served as Artistic Director for the shoot. Thanks a ton Bridget, You Rock! John Davie of Vivid Design did the design and layout of the catalogue. Check out his site Modus Mind Body. It's always a treat to be a part of a team like this and to see such a great end result from several top professionals. I know they certainly made my photography better. Thanks to you all.
I'm the Birthday Party Host with the Most!
For my daughter's Birthday we hosted a little fashion show party at my Boulder, CO studio. We had a chocolate fountain, finger sandwiches and sparkling apple cider in real wine glasses. All the girls brought their favorite outfits and strutted their stuff to the sounds of Miley Cyrus & Kidz Bop. The little buddy loves the studio too, it gives him a chance to break dance.
Morgan Fitness Model Shoot II
I've been working with Morgan on her portfolio and I think we're getting used to each other and coming up with some good stuff...
Morgan Fitness Model Shoot at the Boulder Reservoir
Morgan Tran is a Fitness Model from Boulder, CO. Last week we did a couple of shoots in order to update her portfolio. I did a mountain bike ride around the Boulder Reservoir to get a location idea. The spillway was perfect!
Little Hoopsters
I remember when I was a young (short) and avid basketball fan. I recall going to the local courts in San Jose, CA and wishing the rims were lower so I could slam dunk. Well the court in my hood has an adjustable height and most everyday when the little buddy and I go pick up his sister at the bus stop the local boys have dropped the rim to a manageable slam dunk height.
Sometimes You Just Don't Know What You're Going To Get
Sometimes I rack my brain trying to figure out a shoot or creating a shoot. Sometimes we photographers get our version of writer's block. Sometimes a long, drawn out and well thought of plan comes together. Sometimes things happen out of our control. So many variables. This shoot was none of that. This one breaks down like this. I know a couple of fitness cuties, talked to them one evening and the next morning we're shooting... we don't know what but we're taking advantage of the opportunity. End result...
Field Trip to NCAR in Boulder, CO
NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research) is a landmark at the base of the Flatirons in Boulder, CO. The name pretty much describes what they do. The building was designed by renowned architect I. M. Pei in 1961. Last week my daughter's class went on a field trip to this cool facility and as any good Dad with a camera does I took mine to capture the class having fun. I did not know what to expect but needless to say I will be going back for a "photo shoot", there are so many cool shots to be had at NCAR.
There is a section of NCAR that is open to the public with some interesting hands on displays. For field trips the staff takes the kids on a tour and then they get to do some lab experiments. Below the kids got to use plastic bottles and bubbles to learn the impact of hot and cold air.
Below are just a couple of interesting shots of a couple displays.
And now for something completely different
For my latest commercial project I had the opportunity to shoot some milk jug caps! While this may not seem too sexy to you I happen to like shooting stuff out of the ordinary.
