Shot while I was scouting a location for an upcoming shoot! This Perspective makes cleaning the pool look stunning!

I’ve had two pieces selected for this amazing event. I believe organizations like this are needed and doing great things. Come out and support the local arts as well as support the efforts of Heal the Bay. Here are the two images I’ll have in that show for sale. Hope to see you there.

This is an out-take from a shoot that I recently shot for fashion editorial in Malibu, the overcast day made for perfect light. I use a lot of filters when I shoot for different lighting / effects ect.everything on / in camera when I shoot.. The images in camera had a cross processed look….. I followed the steps online for creating a cross processed look in Photoshop for this shot, took me longer then I’d like to admit. I think I’ll stick to making it happen digitally on set in camera. But here it is! Enjoy!

Everyone use to call me jana banana so I did a self portrait of me holding a banana… inspired from the lifestyle of Alexa Miller and the color treatments of Andrea La Barge Mills personal works ..

A portrait of a the band Eating Faces. This shot showcases the craziness that is the percussion and sound of the band. This angle was Initially concepted by Collins Schude, the drummer. We took it to the next level by squeezing all the accessories and equipment into very tight frame. I then shot from the balcony down 4 stories with a telephoto lens.

For this assignment I decided to shoot some 4X5 film. Its not my typical style to shoot 4X5 and natural light but I think this strait photography compliments my choice in subject well. These archers I found are using composite bow which is one of the older and more challenging types of archery. Anything to produced wouldn’t tell the story the same, I even found the sun to feel too hard and abrasive.

I actually shot this assignment twice. The first attempt didn’t quite make it for me and I new I could get better, more emoting shots, even with the bulky 4X5. Going back to the range I brought two of the pictures from the first shoot. Everyone there was really excited to see them physically. By bringing the prints the Archers where excited to get photographed and motivated to contribute in the shoot. I made a decent group shot and then asked if any one wanted singles. This man agreed (his name escapes me, but I’ll get it) and we spent some minuets getting this amazing portrait right after the sun ducked beyond the valley wall. Photographed on fuji velvia RVP rated at 25, I decided to opt into the 15th of a sec instead of paying the crazy 4 dollar push fee.

heres one from the first shoot.

I had some gold painted weights left over from a shoot so this is the image I made when I caught my assistant jammin out to some tunes and lifting!

Weightlifting!!! We had a bunch of gold painted weights left over from a shoot I just shot so I did a little set up with my assistant Zach pumping iron to some tunes.

In rural Kansas visiting my husband’s family farm for the holidays … we woke up on our last day to a light snow and a bright sunny day …

For this assignment, I was inspired by the words “stay away from a perfectly exposed image” & deep dark shadows. Most times all I do is worry about how perfect my exposure is because in digital many times you can’t afford to be off at all. For this assignment, I purposely underexposed my images for the effect. It was a dark, cold and rainy Malibu day. We were shooting in a cold, dark and empty Malibu home. I went with it and brought the atmosphere and darkness into the image by underexposing the image I think the end result and effect worked in favor of the fashion story.
Thoughts ?????

Keep shooting!
