Defining Moments

~~~

I had a late morning session with Marcus, both studio and outdoors. A little harder to find the good light this time of day, but we did well, and came away with some great images.  Shown below in his football jersey, he also plays baseball and soccer.

Amy is an old friend and high school classmate who came in earlier this week to update her pics.  Hopefully she won’t mind my posting this one shot from her session, because it’s one of my favorite shots ever. Her cello playing sounded pretty amazing in my studio, too!

Lauren was yesterday’s combo session, we did some fun stuff in the studio, trying out some new backdrops, then headed out to Cedar County for some shots by the water, and with her dad’s ‘71 Road Runner. Here’s a few pics, and I will TRY to get a video up later (can’t guarantee anything….busy day today!):

…this time without the paint!  Since I caught them by surprise the other day when they were painting, I thought it only fair to post some images we did when they were actually expecting the camera to be on them.

Julia is from Russia, and just visiting for the summer.  She came to the studio last night , and we got lots of fun stuff, including some cool motion blur experiments.  She gave me a preview of her show, too!  A really interesting mix of traditional Russian songs, what sounded like a Bossa Nova influence, and even included some Elvis.  She sings and plays beautifully, accompanied by CD music.  She mentioned that she might be peforming in the ped mall tonight, so if you’re downtown, look for her!
