Music Embodied in Image

22 08 2009

I made this image after having to cancel a very creative underwater shoot due to weather. Needing to let my creative juices flow, I turned my to-be-assistant for the day into a model. We cobbled the styling together and shot this indoors (obviously), and I added the accents in post. The entire process took 3 hours, from concept to post. The concept was to convey the essence, spirit and soul of music. So what do you think? Did we nail it?

The Christmas Crusaders – A Unique Shoot For The Holidays

26 12 2008

What better way to etch an indelible memory of a family holiday than to create an image that nobody will forget. So I forced convinced Wendy’s family to pose for this cool conceptual shot (thanks guys, you were all troopers). What is the concept you ask? Well, I was going for something out of a comic book.  For now the temporary name is “The Christmas Crusaders?” But I’m taking better suggestions – hit the comments below…
