Headshot of the Week! 3-22-2021

Nicole is totally owning this “Headshot of the Week” today! She really brought her A-Game to this session (part of a group session) and our agreed favorite was actually the first shot we did. Yes, her hair is a bit too close to her left eye but the expression and the overall look had both of us saying, “Meh, who cares?”. I think we made the right choice to just leave it as is. Great job here, Nicole!

Ethereal Annsley

Annsley Wood looking lovely and ethereal in this image from our shoot at the end of last summer. The late afternoon sun was truly on our side this afternoon as it was setting behind her at camera left. A silver reflector was used at camera right to provide some fill and add that spark to Annsley’s eyes.

Angel with a Blue Dress

Calli Carroll wanted to get some images of her senior prom dress so of course I was happy to shoot these for her. Turned out to be quite a lovely and elegant dress which looked amazing on her.

Headshot of the Week! 3-15-2021

Welcome to the “Ides of March” edition of Headshot of the Week! featuring the beautiful Calli Carroll. Calli shows up in my feed often and if you’ve seen those images in the past, you understand why. She not only creates magic in front of the camera but she’s also one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet and pure pleasure to work with.

Striking Saniya

The striking Saniya Allen working the space in front of my lens during Ashley Hylbert’s workshop last year. Saniya’s appeared in my feed before but I think it’s obvious why I keep coming back to this collection of her images for content.

A Mecca Moment

Looking back at 2020 with one of the positive things that came out of a crazy year, my shoot with Mecca in Santa fe. This shoot was a fun exploration of the downtown area in Santa Fe and this doorway was one of the many treasures we found during that afternoon.

The Lovely Kate

Kate is gracing the space on my feed today with this captivating image from our session in Nashville this past summer. Kate’s pensive look here let’s the viewer create their own narrative for this scene. it’s a great example of how one can connect with an image without the subject’s eyes making the connection. Plus, Kate’s simply lovely no matter how you capture her 🙂

Headshot of the Week! 3-8-2021

With Spring getting closer it seems appropriate to put up one of my rare “outdoor” headshots. Bringing us this “ready for Spring” Headshot of the Week! is the lovely Jennifer Rogers. Pretty easy to pick one of her images for HotW! as she really shines in front of the camera. Jennifer is always so much fun to work with she makes it super easy.
