boudoir shoot

i was never interested in doing a boudoir shoot, but then i realized
it could be more W magazine then Maxim, if i only stayed true to myself.
and had a great subject!
these are the G rated samples.

senior un-portrait

we are trying with gusto to eradicate the "wrapped in velvet drape while holding rose" senior portrait from America!

yummy

i love a pic of half eaten food.
i don't know why.
but it helps if i'm the one who ate it.
yum.

i love

jess!

young quentin tarantino

Austin's friend from Charlotte.

the kiss

i love this one. he goes in for the kiss, she is still. so he is blurry and she is not!

Enlightened Grain opening party

i shot a party for EG using available light primarily. to me, that's real photography. i love the Canon 5d Mark II. it shoots in super low light. the effects are similar to film without photoshopping anything.
