Freshly Published Fashion Editorial!

Fashion stylist Jonatan Mejia met in February and started planning to produce and shoot a fashion editorial together. We had a date scheduled for mid March, and then the Covid lockdown made it impossible. When NYC started opening back up we revived our plan.

I recruited artists Jamie Dorman for makeup and Cassie Carey to style hair. We cast the gorgeous Viki Foti with Official Models as our muse.

The editorial, shot in NYC was just published in Awake Revue. Everyone is really pleased with the results. The images are stunning! Viki got the concept and took over!

Fashion credits include Dolce & Gabbana, Dior, Channel, Helmut Lang,  Desigual, and other luxury brands.

Beauty Photography Featured on the Mola SoftLights Blog

My go to modifier for beauty and portrait photography is the Mola Demi.  I have been shooting with this beauty dish for years.  The Mola beauty dish gives me a beautiful quality of light, hard yet soft with a lovely fall off that creates lovely contours to accentuate shape and facial bone structure.

I am thrilled to have the good people at Mola SoftLights feature my work on their blog.  Their beauty dishes are an industry standard that is used by the best photographers in the business.  It is an honor to have them showcase my work!

Jewlery Photo Shoot

Last week I had the pleasure of shooting an advertising campaign for jewelry designer Rush by Denis and Charles.

I worked with the amazing stylist Rod Novoa and makeup/hair Virna Smiraldi.  The model was the beautiful Courtney Eriksson from Q Models NYC.

The team was a blast to work with.  Super talented, fun, no drama.  Courtney is incredible. She cannot take a bad photo and her smile is infectious!

Here are a couple of random images from the shoot!  Please note these are not retouched and not the final selects, just a few I like and pulled out to post.

Beauty Editorial

Here are some behind the scenes photos from a beauty editorial I shot Sunday for Fashion Reverie Magazine.

The theme was a nail slumber party.  The editor was looking to shoot in a hotel room.  Thinking that the location would not look authentic enough, I offered my guest bedroom.  Shooting in my house is always a mixed bag… I like not having to travel to a location but having your home turned upside down for a day can be a drag.  Thankfully the shoot was low impact, the team was great, and we are all very excited about the images we created.  Love to Tiri (Q Models), Violetta (Q Models) and Madison Massey (Major Model Management) as well as T.Cooper – hair and makeup, and  Angi Wingle  of CND (nails).

Here are some behind the scenes photos.  Can’t wait to share the images we created!

Beauty photography in my NYC studio

Yesterday I took a day to shoot a test in studio.  Booked the stunning Dutch beauty Quirine Engel from New York Models.  Lizzie Lerman did her makeup and Ayato Yokojima did hair.  Lizzie was referred to me by Jillian of Exclusive Artist Management.  I have been working with Ayato for years.  We started very clean and built the makeup gradually, but never too heavy.  Quirine was a pleasure to work with.  I am very happy with the photos.  Here are a couple of behind the scenes photos.  I will post the finished images once they have been selected and retouched.

Monday I will be shooting a lookbook for a Korean designer, Tuesday I am coordinating a shoot for Flashes of Hope… can’t wait for the weekend to be over so I can get back to work!

Bridal Fashion

New York Bridal Market Week just ended.  I was fortunate to be hired by the talented Edgardo Bonilla to photograph his collection at the London New York Hotel in Midtown.  Traffic getting there was a killer, but after that the shoot went seamlessly.  Edgardo’s designs are spectacular.  He uses exquisite fabrics combining texture, volume and draping creating stunning gowns.  I am a lucky man.  I was able to walk the beautiful Kate Wolf down the aisle.  Granted, I was a bit underdressed but I only expected to be the photographer!

Beauty test

A week ago I was shooting a fashion editorial for a regular client.  While shooting jobs I love to post images to social media to share what I am doing. Understandably my editor does not want us to post images of the shoot which will preview the styles we will be publishing in a future issue.

Ww loved the look of our model Nyamouch from Fentonmoon so Jackie Sanchez (makeup), Karen Bishop, (hair) and I decided to shoot a few beauty looks with her after we finished shooting the job.  Here is one of my favorite photographs from the short session.
