Kate

I met Kate last week at the 2nd “Heavy Metal Karaoke Takeover” a mutual friend of ours invited us to. The next day when I added her to Facebook (because that’s what you do to be OFFICIALLY FRIENDS now, right?) and noticed she was a belly dancer! I LOVE belly dancing. I used to even do it before hooping consumed my life! I was never great though, and Kate is AMAZING! She was so fun to shoot!

Here’s some favorites!

more to come from the Secret Dawn workshop, including model James Negri (a familiar face if you follow my work) and candid behind the scene shots!

Drew is Leah’s other half, and he had laid claim on her company last Saturday! But he was kind enough to share his day with his lady with a group of shutternerds and myself at Michelle’s Secret Dawn Workshop. To repay his kindness, we put him to work modeling! Here’s a couple favorites…thanks Drew!

Leah

I’ve been in a serious slump. Weddings are going great and I see my work improving and evolving…but outside of work I have barely lifted my camera.

I’m not really sure why…I guess I haven’t been dedicating enough time to fostering inspiration. I barely have time to flip through my piles of magazines, let alone read a book. Most of that is backlogged wedding work fighting for all my time, the rest is the usual leeches of creativity and time-management (facebook, etc.)

So when it came time for Michelle’s Secret Dawn workshop in Worcester, I was so excited. I needed some time to spend thinking about what’s going wrong and how to fix it.

I will do a full review of the workshop once all the photos are done, but I’m going to post the model’s photos one by one as well.

This is Leah, she was our first model!

Coming next…Kate, an amazing belly dancer!

I’ve been so busy with weddings lately I haven’t been able to blog very much. The Altared Visions site still has a lot of work (as does this one) and often takes priority. I just shot my last wedding until New Year’s Eve this past weekend in Maryland complete with Washington DC engagement shots and I’m really excited to catch up on edits and have some serious time to blog and do some personal work.

But that doesn’t mean I haven’t been shooting!! So here are some shots from my autumnal shenanigans this year.

There was King Richard’s Faire. Full set here.

And then there was the Salem Zombie Walk on 10.10.10. Full set here.

Followed by my annual trip to the New York Sheep & Wool Festival in Rhinebeck, NY. Full set here.

Followed by the first official Hideout New England group shoot with James Barron [facebook] Dana Lane [website] and Olivia Williams [website] and our beautiful models Mara and Keila. Full set here.

This has been such a great (and busy) fall!! More to come!

Johnny & Beth, engaged & awesome.

This is Beth.

This is Johnny.

They’re awesome. They are getting hitched on 9/10/2011 and hired James and I to shoot their wedding as well as parties and these engagement pics! We shot them in the Federal Hill area of Providence, RI…just around the corner from their apartment.

This is Pants, she is one of their two man-eating chihuahuas. I also have a man-eating chihuahua but for some reason Pants did not recognize me as one of the Keepers of the Hua.

With James and Ashley in tow, we strolled around and ended up having a total blast and got some great images! Johnny and Beth also made us all dinner and score for me…they’re both veggies, too. Mmmmm.

Here’s the whole set, and some favorites!

Can we all sit down for a minute and talk about the fact that Vickiann is someone’s grandmother? I don’t look this good now. Anyway now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, here’s some favorites from my shoot with my friend Hope’s (who I’ve photographed a lot) mother Vickiann.

Someone said that Ashley looked like a young Elizabeth Taylor, which brought about this one…I love it.
