So last year, I drove two hours up to a factory turned art space in Kingston New York to help support a creative type who specializes in cinematic creation. I really hadn’t met Michael Pope except in very brief passings or even briefer messages through Facebook, but he had launched a Kickstarter and asked me… Continue reading One years journey with Synematika
So, once upon a time in the land of Jade, before I became a portrait photographer, I was what I like to call an Urban Decay photographer. I used to scamper around in old buildings, no doubt filled with asbestos and god knows what else, and try to find captivating pictures out of the piles… Continue reading Before I was a portrait photographer and the meaning of my name.
Ok, so a photoshop master I am not, but I am always up for a challenge. Melissa had contacted me about engagement photos she wanted of her ring with dragon eggs. She explained that they were like the dragon eggs from Game of Thrones, and as a GOT fan myself, I knew I wanted to… Continue reading Melissa and Joshua- GOT engagement
The little one was only a week old when she came into the studio. Sadly, Dad had to go back to work so couldn’t be in for the shoot, but not to worry. He’ll be back in soon and we’ll have some cute pics of the whole family. Mum (Amanda) and Grandma Joan did such… Continue reading Payton-Newborn
I still can’t believe this wee one is so big already. Merry-Jayne is already over a month old! She’s so tiny, though, that we were able to get some cute newborn photos of her despite being older than the typical “newborn” time frame. She wasn’t very happy, the poor thing is just getting over a nasty… Continue reading Merry-Jayne Newborn
Earlier in the week Kelly, Dylan and I decided to freeze our butts off to get some wintery engagement photos at Nay Aug Park in Scranton. 🙂 When Kelly first got in touch with me and told me she wanted to do engagement photos in the snow, I was a bit nervous. We really hadn’t… Continue reading Kelly and Dylan- Engagement Sho
Who would have thought that I’d end up having work to do while I was in a different state… Like 1500+ miles away from home and the studio?? Not this girl, but it turns out since I was going to be in San Antonio for Imaging USA, a friend of mine asked if I would… Continue reading Cypress- High School Portraits
While in San Antonio, Texas for the Imaging Conference I was able to take some photos of Laurel’s Air BnB. It’s a quick 10 minutes from downtown and the Riverwalk and is absolutely adorable. If you are travelling to San Antonio and need a place to stay, I strongly suggest finding her on Air BnB.… Continue reading The Tortoise and Hare- Air BnB
So earlier this week I flew out to San Antonio, Texas to go to my first Imaging conference. I had no idea what to expect because I didn’t understand what I could possibly from watching someone talk in person as opposed to watching a similar video on youtube. I’m a self-taught, mostly youtube learned photographer.… Continue reading Imaging Conference 2017
Just a little before Christmas I got to take pictures of this beautiful family. They were absolutely wonderful and even let me take a few derpy Christmas photos in antlers and santa hats. These are two of my favorites:
