dressform with various wrap styles

Spent my afternoon photographing Wolf Model Form 1977 wearing a bunch of Naturally Knotty wraps. Turns out with a little help from NK’s Jasmine Fullman, Form 1977 knows at least a dozen ways to wear a wrap.

Short behind-the-scenes video about photographing wraps and scarves in studio on a dress form.

 

Photos are a great way to help you sell more on the web. Whether it’s clothing or sunglasses or any other product, people want to see what they’re going to buy, before they buy it.

 

I can help you get the best photos for websites, ebay, amazon, etc. Contact me for details.

photos used on display in costco

 

Check this out — bunch of my photos on a display in Costco! Yay!

 

These were shot last year or maybe even in 2010. The model has since gone on to a crazy tour of Europe as a model!

product photo of bamboo tubes and wraps

I shoot product photos too. These kind of photos are perfect for web sales, detail shots for catalogs, or anything else where you need a clean, simple shot of your product. In this case, it’s bamboo wraps (yes, the wraps are made of bamboo!) from Naturally Knotty. The wraps come in really cool bamboo tubes.

 

There are many, many ways to shoot products. For this shoot, that first photo has four strobes — two strip domes providing a rim light, a softbox for key light, and a bare reflector on the background. As you can see in the second shot, the background is just white posterboard. The last two shots were done with the modeling lamps cranked all the way up and the white balance set for tungsten so I could shoot at a wide open aperture.

diamond ring on miss america 2002

 

Check out the rocks on this diamond ring. All that sparkle is real. Shot this photo using natural light with a window as the background. Sure beats setting up five lights to get a similar look using strobes. What this means for clients is more variety, more photos, and less time spent setting up and metering lights.

bridal photo of miss america in diamond earrings pendant and ring

 

Very nice shoot today featuring diamonds from Simon Golub & Sons. All that shine is real. Pendant, earrings, and ring. Those gems are quite intricately cut to shine from across the room.
