Rag Princess

Here’s a fun portrait of Eva at the studio wearing her favorite “hair” and “scarf”. I took a similar photo of her a few weeks ago and posted it on my Instagram profile. I liked the rag around her shoulders so much, that I wanted to have a proper studio shot of Eva wearing it. Speaking [...]

Burgess Falls, TN

This past weekend I had an opportunity to go to Burgess Falls with the Murfreesboro Photographic Society. I had heard about the park before, and seen photos of it, but Saturday was my first time to actually go there and take photos. Fortunately, we chose to visit the park at a great time of the [...]

Here’s a quick photo of David at the studio. I was watching them for a few hours on Wednesday while Laura had some errands to do, and we decided to take some photos instead of watching more Diego episodes on Netflix. As usual, if you click on the photo, you will be able to see [...]

Swanson Building Murfreesboro

Last night we had one of the most spectacular sunsets that I’ve seen in Murfreesboro in a long time. And since I was at my studio on Main Street, I decided to make it a challenge and find a local landmark that would look good against such a magnificent sunset. Just a block away from [...]

Carl at the Studio

Needed to take a break from talking about newborns. Here’s a photo of Carl that I shot back in September. Carl and I were roommates back in college. He is also a very talented photographer and designer, and the first person to introduce me to film photography. The day I took this photo of Carl, he had [...]

The Girl With The Red Bow

Titus — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 06:35:28 +0000

About a month ago I got a phone call from a lady in North Carolina. She had stumbled over my blog, and was wondering if I could take photos of her two adopted daughters. She told me that the girls (twins) had had a very rough life prior to their adoption, and she wanted me [...]

There are two things that make me anxious when I shoot portraits: not being sold on a portrait idea, and worse, not having any idea of what to tell the subjects to do. Sometimes this happens because of my stubbornness, and sometimes because of the lack of preparation on me or my subjects’ part. However, having [...]

One of the most common phrases that you hear from great photographers is that you have to “see the light” or “see the photo in your mind”. With shooting landscapes this is pretty straight forward, but putting together concept photographs that involve people, props, location planning… that takes a whole lot more “seeing”. The photos [...]

Every aspiring photographer dreams of a day when he/she would be able to control every aspect of a photo shoot – choosing the location, deciding on the pose, the number of photos the client gets, the type of light they use, the outfits of the subjects/models, etc. I, too, used to find myself saying “If [...]
