I was approached to shoot some Hasbro Avenger figures for the new movie coming out. It was a challenge to say the least. I know how to light a person, but how does that same light modifier light a 3 3/4&#8243; action figure. 



I&#8217;ve taken toy shots before, but never in a way to try [...]]]></description>

I had the opportunity to shoot the Labels Lie campaign for People of the Second Chance. It was probably the biggest shoot I have been apart of. The style is so very different than anything I have done in the past.
&#8220;The campaign’s focus is on being liberated from the prison of societies labels. We don’t [...]]]></description>

Back in March I took a trip to NYC. One of the problems of having only primes is that you have to swap out lenses a lot. This time I decided to only shoot with a lense I picked up for $135, an older Sigma 28mm F1.8 AF. 
This particular Sigma 28mm is one of [...]]]></description>

A few months back I had the chance to shoot a good friend and his fiance. Since they both are from the L.A. area I thought it would be a great opportunity to meet up and collaborate with the legendary Jessica Drossin.
For this main shot we wanted to do something a little less traditional&#8230;something more [...]]]></description>

There are several things I&#8217;ve always said I would never do. One of those things is to take a female portrait on train tracks. Well I didn&#8217;t stick too that plan. A friend had ask me to take her picture for her Senior Portrait (which is a first for me). So I thought to myself, [...]]]></description>

This year I decided to do something different for our family portrait. I thought it would be interesting to attempt to do a holiday scene. Several weeks ago while my brother was on vacation I decide to let myself in to use his nice kitchen and of course I came armed with lights.
Equipment Used:

Couple weeks back I made a trip down to El Paso Texas to shoot the band Altarmotive. Armed with only battery power flashes I set out and spent the whole day with them at different locations.

This isn&#8217;t a review but an introduction to a program I recently stumbled upon called LR/Enfuse. LR/Enfuse is a Lightroom plugin that allows you to blend multiple exposures together directly from within Lightroom.
On occasion I will take multiple exposures to blend together to get a greater dynamic range (HDR). In the past I have used [...]]]></description>
