This weekend I was lucky enough to attend an EPIC fusion & blues costume dance party with a "Where the Wild Things Are" theme. I took a bunch of quick photos inside (in REALLY low ambient light), and then set up my speedlight and umbrella outside on the lawn for some fun portraits, using my flashlight to set focus in the dark. The party was such a blast, and it was so much fun to be able to capture these kinds of images.
One of my oldest friends came by to play with lighting and headshots. We took a bunch of somewhat traditional photos, and also played around with dramatic lighting and silly faces; I particularly love the first shot below where he curled up his mustache and gave me that crazy circus ringmaster face.
I've known this couple for over a decade, and was super excited when they asked me to photograph them with their amazing new tattoos. We played around with lighting and poses and ended up with a really nice combination of styles: magazine ad, headshot, couples boudoir, and ink closeups.
