I must say, Maternity shoots are so intimate and loving to photograph, I feel honored anytime someone asks me to capture this fundamental time in their lives. Especially when the Mom-to-be is as adventurous as I am! Yes please! Ariana is one of those Mom-to-Be's. I gave her a few options to choose from for potential shoot locations and she immediately went for the Dry Lake Bed. There wasn't even a hint of hesitation. I just said softly to myself, 'sweet'. I absolutely love the atmosphere that a Dry Lake Bed brings to a shoot. So many interpretations. In the case of a maternity shoot? I feel it speaks of a spirit coming to life. Birth and bringing joy, happiness and adventure into a beautiful family. Thank you Ariana for letting me have a small part in the beginning to your next adventure. See some of the photos below and let me know what you think?
I cannot believe it is has been well over a year before my last post. Promises of blogging each and every time. Well let me get you all updated. It has been a whirlwind of happenings, distractions and just not getting to the blog in order to seriously start typing for an hour or two to update all the great things (and some not so great things). I am currently writing down my thoughts and experiences out here in Las Vegas, about the people, the whys and hows and perhaps an article in the near future will happen. I am looking into my roots now as to what I wanted to do way back when and who knows, maybe the writer that used to lay within when I was a lot younger will come forth to reveal that I am my own personal article machine, photos and all. :) Since my last Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School post, I'm excited to say I've become the "Principal" of the Las Vegas chapter. My hopes are to grow this chapter into a plethora of L...
Dr. Sketchy's The Anti-Art School was introduced to me back in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by an incredibly talented friend Steve Cleff (who now runs the Philadelphia Dr. Sketchy's chapter, previously run by Nicola Black ) before I came out to Las Vegas. I am a huge supporter of art and was very anxious to find out more about this once a month outting. I had an awesome time at the Super Heroes vs. Super Villains session. My photography eye widened with excitement as I went into an artistic inspirational flow. I started snapping away, looking for a way to create artful images and to photograph models. Something I haven't done exclusively yet and have been wanting to do so for some time now. Below are some images from that first themed session. Now that I am in Las Vegas I was very happy to find out that Dr. Sketchy's is a nationwide and worldwide phenomena. A Dr. Sketchy's is growing on every continent and thankfully there is a chapter ri...
