Evolutions Salon and Spa shoot

admin — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 17:09:38 +0000

Had the fun opportunity to work with a great bunch of people this past week. I went to Evolutions Salon and Spa in Wilmington, NC to do a commercial shoot for their newly redesigned website (coming soon), being developed by TayloeGray. I was tasked to shoot the staff, group shot, products and layout of the salon. When I arrived I was able to get some great outdoor shots for the salon. Then I moved my focus towards the staff and group shot. I will admit I was not expecting the large amount of people in the group (15 total) and I was able to make it a fun and unique shoot for all of them. Bringing the gossip of the salon to the people.

After the staff and group shots I went on to shooting products. I leaned away from the traditional softbox (white box) method. I thought the images looked good on a white bottom and just a blurred background. After shooting the products came the HDR magic for the interior shots. Feel free to check out the gallery below to look at all the images.

Zushlag Wedding

The benefit of having Facebook is that it is a great advertising tool. If it was not for Facebook I would not of been able to share my amazing images with people back from home. Recently my fifth grade teacher asked me to photograph her daughter’s wedding. Of course I knew her daughter too as she went to school with me and was just a year younger than me. After coordinating back and forth through the internet via e-mail and Facebook the day came. It was my first ever New Years Eve wedding. It took place at Thiel College and was absolutely beautiful as was the bride.

It was an evening ceremony so the lighting was a bit tough for outside shots. I brought my two 530 EXes with me. There was not too much worry with the pictures inside the church, as usual they would not let me use flash during the ceremony. I still have never seen a reason for this though. It is sad that churches will not allow it so the bride and groom would get even better quality images. The bride and grooms families were absolutely wonderful to work with. There were hardly any photos that I had to manipulate due to them being so well at keeping their eyes open and having wonderful smiles.

After the ceremony we had a fun opportunity to go around different places on the college campus. We went to the domed football field and had a chance to shoot inside. The groomsmen decided to pay tribute to Tim Tebow and did his signature pose as seen above, please click for larger image.

As the night came to an end, I thought it was a great time shooting my first New Years Eve wedding. I would definitely do it again.

Marie’s Valentine’s Day Boudoir Shoot

Had an awesome opportunity to shoot Marie in my office/studio and break the new location in. It was a great experience and the lighting in there is nice and easy to maintain. We traveled around the area and used numerous office locations and just had fun. I am sure her boyfriend will be enjoying these photos. Thank you Marie for being such a great subject to shoot with.

Travels to Pittsburgh

Over the holidays I had the opportunity to visit my favorite city, Pittsburgh. It was the second time my girlfriend ever ventured up there with me, but the first time that we actually had the chance to go see the sites. It was pretty cold, so we didn’t walk around much.

We started out by dining at Atria’s located below PNC Park where the Pittsburgh Pirates play. After a delicious meal, we decided to walk around the ball park. I wanted to practice my HDR photography and thought it was a great opportunity to do it at such a fun place. I was really pleased with how these landscape images turned out. I know I will be giving out some of these and selling them. I plan to purchase an awesome panaroma image for myself.
