Project Paradise SNEAK PEEK!

My first full production – Project: Paradise was postponed this weekend but we did get to run out half of our test shots and staging day. What we did get was awesome. I planned on getting about four times more pictures so I will definitely have to reschedule this when I find another venue. For now here’s a sneak peak of what we accomplished. I’m glad I can put something like this under my utility belt now :)

Joey and Ryan Preview!

Even though Project Paradise Day 2 didn’t go through, I still shot one of the couples really quickly. Instead of staying home and editting, we had a last minute change of plans and went to the railroad tracks. Thanks for all the help from Matt Kruger and Henson Santiago, and Make Up and Hair by my sick girlfriend Gaby. More pictures posted soon :)

Project Paradise Scout Out and KYR Apparel Mini Shoot

This weekend is HUGE! I’ll be hosting a full out production called Project: Paradise. I was lucky and blessed enough to get support from friends and colleagues to do this shoot. Were doing a high end nautical/island theme with models and couples with the full on make up, hair, wardrobe and all the assistants. Were shooting at a private beach house and beach this weekend (even though its going to rain saturday) with almost a dozen different lights. This is going to be the largest production i’ve ever put on, so it should be lots of fun, and lots of stress. Keep close to my blog and subscribe via email to see the shots coming in the near future. For now, we just scouted out the location and made maps for where the different sets will be.

I also combined Know Your Roots Apparel into this shoot and took some shots with Robin Pra and Alex Garcia. Check out the clothing at KYRAPPAREL.COM
