A while ago I had an idea about a water image I wanted to make, but either the weather hasn’t cooperated or I have been too busy to set it up. Recently, however, I got a call from a friend who needed a couple of swimsuit shots for the agency that represents her. After we got the shots she needed, she agreed to indulge me for a few minutes. Here are a couple of the resulting images:

Had a fun three-day shoot last week for a client who was looking to spruce up their marketing materials and website with images that illustrate the Arizona lifestyle. We shot at beautiful locations around Phoenix, including Papago Park, a private residence in Paradise Valley, and the golf course adjacent to the Biltmore Resort. I think everyone was a little nervous about the heat, but the weather for all three days was spectacular – more like spring than the inferno of summer. Our team consisted of a fabulous group of models as well as Heather Wilson, a superstar make-up artist, and Patrick Tipton, a great photographer who kindly agreed to help out on the shoot.

Shooting at night can be tricky, particularly if you’re trying to photograph something that wants to move. Luckily, my friend Kalynne, who is both lovely and fun to work with, was great at holding stock still while we tested a new location I recently discovered. Here are a couple of the images we made:

I had seen a couple of snapshots of my friend Kalynne on horseback, so I asked if she might be game for a ranch themed shoot, which she was. It turns out that her Grandpa Bruce is an expert horseman, so he accompanied us out to a nearby arena both to help with the horses and to be a subject for some of the photographs. Kalynne is a trooper – up for anything – and her Grandpa is just a great guy. In fact, the shoot would have been a success if all I had come away with was Bruce’s acquaintance. As it turns out, we got some fun shots both of Kalynne by herself and with her Grandpa Bruce.

Had a quick shoot over the weekend at this annual fundraiser for Xavier Prep, one of the premier girls prep schools in Phoenix. Twelve hundred mothers and daughters turned out to watch models from S.I.M. Agency and The Agency Arizona wearing fashions from Saks Fifth Avenue. Additional images can be found here.
Spent a delightful couple of hours last week with the lovely Kalynne and Brittany, along with various members of their family, working on images for their portfolios and mine. Here are a few from that session:
I recently discovered a couple of cool, grittier locations not far from where I live and was looking for an excuse to use them in a shoot. Fortunately, Lisa had an opening in her schedule. We had a fun couple of hours traipsing around train tracks and old factories. These are two of the images from that shoot.
