I just love shooting these guys and I am usually honored to do it once or twice a year. The kids are great to work with and their mother is open to let me have creative control in the studio. I started off the shoot with some pretty standard boring shots but by the end [...]

This is another from the new softbox series. One 6′ octabox camera left as a main and an SB-800 camera right for a background light. The only processing was done in Lightroom 3. I reduced the overall clarity while sharpening her pupils.

I have been considering picking up at 60″ or larger soft box for quiet a while now. The small soft boxes that I have a great but I sometimes find myself combining them to make the appearance of one large one. Yet, I was having trouble justifying the cost of the extra gear. During my [...]

Tiffany is one of my favourite people in the world to shoot. She is an amazing photographer herself and is one of the most fun people to have on set. I had an idea to play with a “caution tape” them and Tiffany was all in. I used two medium soft boxes in a clam [...]
