My first blog for September, my dear readers. The air is getting that nice little crisp feel. School is about to start and before you know it, we will have little children running along the streets screaming “trick or treat.” I love the fall. It’s the start of the new fashion season. I have my […]
I am FINALLY going to write a blog geared strictly to photographers. It’s not about how to deal with models. It is not about the perils we go through in a photoshoot.

I am exhausted. I just got in from a photo shoot (well 3, honestly) and to say the least it is a very long day. Only those in the industry can truly understand and appreciate the grueling day that we go through. Those outside of the industry think we just breeze in at the last […]
This blog is from the archives and happened to be one of the most controversial blogs I have ever written. So controversial that it actually got me blocked from shooting for a few agencies for a while. I didn’t care. I always advocated for models ever since I got […]
There once was a man named John who decided one day to become a professional photographer. So he set off on an incredible journey. He first purchased 10 Alien Bee lights (because that’s what he was told to do). He purchased a Rebel TSi and all the lenses he could afford (because that’s what he […]
