Details.

i enjoy shooting details. decor. it is a part of my fine art and editorial approach to weddings. each event is unique. my focus [always] is on cohesive collection of editorial images that bring out the personalities of my subject.

this past december, i was asked by Out of Hand to shoot some of their floral decor at one of their weddings at Boone Hall Plantation. during my weddings, i don’t really get a lot of time to shoot details. i wish i did. it would be sooooo awesome to have more time.

with this one, though, that’s all i was there for- shoot decor!  so i brought my Rolleiflex and a couple rolls of fuji film.

Check out this beautiful cake by Ashley Bakery

and the lovely bride and groom during their first dance.

Laroque- Spring Collection Shoot

Recently i photographed Sadye for Laroque‘s Spring Collection. I enjoy shooting editorial and do quite a few of them for a few commercial clients throughout the year.

Pass the word along if you know of anyone that would be a good fit with my shooting style. It would mean a lot to me.

2011

The year 2011 brought a lot of fond memories. This is my first time doing a “Best of” ever in my career. 2011 was such an exceptional year that i just could not pass up the opportunity to do just a quick year end review.

2011 was such a roller coaster ride. Switching from all digital mediums to digital-analog (hybrid) medium added a ton of fun in our adventures.

Needless to say, I am very happy how everything turned out and how happy our clients are with the work we delivered. We received nothing but raves from our clients and for that we are very thankful.

There is so much to say about the work that we had done in 2011. It is very difficult to disconnect myself from our clients this year. I feel little emotional moving forward to 2012. BUT i know 2012 is going to be one BADASS year with so much in store for us and so many assignments lined up.

So for my 2011 peeps, THANK YOU. Thank you for trusting me. Us. On behalf of my assistants, Ron, Stephen, Peter and Debbie, THANK YOU for allowing us get a glimpse of your beautiful life.

Here’s a summary of how i saw your world in 2011. Watch the slideshow below or click here
