How to make make a perfect martini

Here's how to make the perfect martini.  Shoot about 25 shots per martini, every highlight, every shadow, every different color and garnish, assemble with about 15 layers per shot.

Cookbook

Shot a few test shots last week that landed us a nice coffee table cookbook project.

I'm excited, the cookbook should be fun.

Random New Images

I thought I would post some new images I like that didn't make the website.

I like to keep my portfolio consistent so not every good image makes the cut.

First shoot of the new year

I just did the first shoot of the year for a small local company that makes a killer product called "Browniepops". Oh my, these are so good. As the name would indicate these are luscious soft brownies on a Popsicle stick and frosted with all kinds of fun stuff. They even make them in different shapes like snowmen, Easter chickens, etc. We love working with small companies that are trying to get a start in the market that have a great product or design and give us the freedom to do our best. It always feels good to give back. In this case we agreed to trade some fee for product. We're happy, they are happy and when all is said and done that's what matters.

If you get a chance check them out: Browniepops.com

Launched the New website today

You would think after launching a number of websites it would get easier.  Wrong!  It's always much harder to marketing for you own company then for others.  We started this new site almost a year ago and finally got it launched today!!!  We still have a few things to finish but for the most part I'm very pleased.  Hope you like it too.

Old dogs can learn new tricks

I shot this project for one of those rare clients that said, "We like what you do and want you to do a shot for us. We want to illustrate that we teach, train and do workshops to help educate our customers." Is that it, I asked? Yep!

How fun is that? A wide open shoot where one can be as creative as you want! Right off the bat the brain started whirling with different ideas. I thought how fun would it be to find an old school house with an old slate chalkboard and shoot their company mascot in front of it- as if he were going over today's lesson.

I started my career as a film photographer and I get asked all the time if I like shooting digital. I always answer, "I wouldn't go back. I can illustrate so many more images and concepts the way I see them in my head with digital." This is a perfect example. Hope you enjoy.
