Daquan's headshots

I know I won't ever update this thing if I wait until I've put up all the photos taken before this shoot, so why don't I start with the most recent? That way I can backtrack when I have time, as well as updating with new stuff.

Daquan and I met up a couple weeks ago in Hollywood to shoot his headshots, even though most of the shots ended up being around Melrose. Daquan is a dancer who recently moved from NYC to LA. We had a lot of fun, and I really love the images we got! Thanks for a great shoot, Daquan!

Update

So, I haven't posted in a really long time. I thought I should update!

I just moved to Los Angeles to pursue photography. I'm looking for photo assisting jobs right now. I'm still trying to figure out what type of photography suits me best, and what I want to focus on to eventually have my own photography business.

I shot a wedding back in October along with my fellow RCC graduate, Alexa. She has just started her own wedding photography business! She's great, so I suggest you check out her site.

I'm posting some of my images from the wedding, as well as a recent headshot I took for my friend Anna back in Greensboro!

La Republica Dominicana

I went on a mission trip with my church to the Dominican Republic last week for spring break. It was amazing, and I can't wait to go back. I miss it so much already. Here are a few images.



Internship

I'm actually enjoying my internship more than I thought I would. My initial thoughts were "Oh, it's shooting furniture. It will be boring but at least I'm getting paid." But it's really interesting! I think so anyway. I get to shoot all day, and I'm learning so much about lighting. It's always a challenge trying to get the lighting right, and I love the challenge. Here's an image from my first shoot, which was only a week and a half into the internship!

Caroline Faust

I went to Atlanta this past weekend and took some pictures of a graffiti tunnel in Cabbagetown as well as Miss Caroline Faust for a soundslides project. Here are some of my favorites!

Winter Wonderland

A week ago we had some unexpected snow in Greensboro, and I woke up early the next morning to take pictures before it melted! Here are some photos around my house...
