I was asked by the great folks at Comes with Baggage to shoot product photography for the brand.
For the session we opted to take things outside and see what would could capture on the streets of New York City – always an experience in and of itself. Below you’ll find a few shots from the shoot.
New York Fashion Week is a playground for a photographer. There are well dressed peopled buzzing around Lincoln Center, and more importantly, they are more than happy to have their photo taken.
These are just a few of the snaps I caught during week.
Wedding photography is not only expensive for the bride and groom – or their parents – it’s a high pressure game for the photographer on hand. You are, in theory, there to capture the moments of the day – the ones that are gone just as fast as they arrived. Sure, some shots are staged, but a vast majority of them are not.
I attended an Indian wedding last weekend, and after the bride and groom changed into more traditional attire, I snapped this shot during their first dance. Note: I wasn’t there as a shooter – just a guest – and I wasn’t using flash, or even the correct lens for that matter.
I’m just happy to have been in the right place at the right time to capture this shot for the bride and groom.
I’ve been doing a lot of street style fashion photography lately, partially for my fashion blog, and partially because I think it’s a ton of fun. This post highlights a few recent shots taken while walking around New York City.
Emily needed some new headshots so we met one afternoon in Central Park to snap a few. We shot in various locations, but the two photos below were taken while she was partially covered by a bridge in the park. It created a nice natural lighting situation and she now has a number of headshots to choose from.
As always, the shots aren’t heavily edited, if at all.
Meet Natalie. I randomly took her photo one day in SoHo for a street style post on Fashables. From there, a photo shoot eventually evolved and some of the shots we captured can be seen below.
The shoot took place on a dark, rainy day in NYC, but we still managed to pull off some good shots.
It’s amazing how adding a little scarf creates texture. I’m also a fan of the yellow popping off the wall.
Again, we were working with very low light. It just so happened that her toenail polish was almost the same color as the orange spot on the wall in the background.
Love this shot. Industrial chic might be a good way to describe it.
“Hey, let’s use that latter as a prop.”
Nothing like a colorful wall of peeling paint to use as a backdrop.
This is just a sampling of the shots we took; I’ll put more up at a later date.
The Standard Hotel as seen from the High Line in New York City. I loved how the clouds reflected off of the windows.
