bright colors!

As some of you may know, I bought a new light & it came in the mail the other day! I was like a kid at Christmas time & I couldn't wait to play with it. I have been wanting to play with color gels for awhile so I busted them out with the new light. It was fun! I like the bold colors...there will be more in the future...if you want to be in the series of images, please let me know!

alyse

So yesterday I got to shoot with the lovely Alyse from APM models. I wanted to take advantage of the beautiful day so we shot outside at Central Park. It was probably the last warm day we will see until the spring. It was a quick & easy shoot & I got a lot of beautiful images. Here are just a few of my favorites.

brooklyn

Today was a gorgeous day for a shoot....so I did one! Here are some of the images from the shoot with KT and Roly in Brooklyn.

bored roomies take 2!

The roomie & I got bored again, so naturally we decided to do a photo shoot. I have been wanting to do a shoot that was very raw & dark for awhile. I LOVE the images we got, and we shot it so quickly which is always awesome. I only shot 14 frames of this look & we were done! I love when it happens like that :) Anyway, hope you enjoy, let me know what you think.

caroline

So here is my shoot I did with Caroline from Wilhelmina Models. I had an amazing hair stylist & make up artist. Caroline was so easy to shoot. She is only 18, but she has been doing this for years already! What a pro. It was fun to have her in front of my lens.

I did a set of images in color & then in Black and white. Anyone who knows me, knows I love B & W. Here are the black & whites, I will post the color ones later.

There are few things more fun than working with a great team of people toward a common goal.

On that note, yesterday I got to work with some amazing people on a great photo shoot. It started out a little rocky when the hair stylist blew a fuzz with all his curling irons & we had to wait over an hour for the super to get to my place! But once the power was on it was smooth sailing. We got some great beauty shots of Marissa. Marissa was such a sweetheart. She is still very new to the modeling world, but how could you not love this face!?!

west village

So today I found my new favorite neighborhood in NYC. I went down to the west village to pick up some film I had developed at the lomography store (which is a great little store to all my photography friends) & decided I would explore the area. I didn't anticipate doing anything so I only had my small point & shoot camera so the images aren't anything great, but I do love them because the feeling I got from the neighborhood was amazing; relaxing, friendly & positive.

This corner was so cute. On the opposite corner is a place called cafe cluny where I stopped in to grab a delicious coffee.
It is so funny to see where they place gas stations out here. This one was so tiny and set in the craziest spot.
Along with the calm feeling in this neighborhood, there were positive sayings/expressions on every corner! Need an uplift, take a walk in this area.
Love is the answer!
