Steve Z in the Studio
Here is Part 2 of the Steve and Bobbie studio experience. If you missed the story, Part 1 is HERE. I’m going to keep this one short since it’s midnight, I’m off to Europe in the morning, and I haven’t started packing. Stay tuned for European adventures!!!







Bobby and Stevie’s Excellent Studio Adventure

One of my photographer friends who I share my studio space with is Bobbie Turner. He has a picture of himself attached to the bottom of his email signature that I really didn’t like. Since I’m not one to hold back, I told him that he needed a new one! And actually I needed some of myself as well, so we planned a day in the studio to play with lighting and to each get pictures of ourselves for our own promotion.

You can check out Bobbie’s website and blog by clicking the links.

Bobbie’s cool, he used to race BMX back in the 80’s like me hee-ha!!! As a result, he has hit his head many times just like me.

We couldn’t be serious for too long in there. We were coming up with wild lighting scenarios and busting out some moves. Listing to Kid Rock does these things to you, honest. Look for the sequel to this post with my inverted aerial maneuvers coming soon!

Primal Future Clothing Product Photography Shoot

Last week I was in the studio shooting pictures of clothing for the Primal Future website. Patrick wanted to use live models for the product photos for the website. I hired the models and set up the white backdrop for some fairly straightforward shots. After we got done with the standard shots we decided to have some fun. I love making people jump for the camera :>)
Daily Photo - Meliana in the Studio

I’ve been getting back into the studio after a few months off. In one week I shot three paying gigs there. This is Meliana from Brazil. She is building her modeling portfolio, so look for more shots of her in the near future.
Strobist Lighting 102: Cooking With Light

I’ve been following along with Lighting 102 over at the Strobist blogspot. This week was the first class assignment. We were instructed to shoot a single kitchen object, preferably a shiny one. I chose to do my blender. You can check out the full assignment HERE.

Daily Photo - The Garter Belt
The garter belt tradition is apparently not one of the most beloved wedding traditions by all brides. But nonetheless, I wanted to to a sexy but tasteful photo of one.

Daily Photos - Cynthia the Peruvian Beauty
I’m still cranking through May’s photo backlog. Cynthia helped me out with some of the wedding shots that I did. As an exchange I shot some pictures of her in the studio for her portfolio. She was great to work with, super easy-going and fun. She told me a story about when she first came to the US from Peru. Turns out she and some girlfriends worked for a winter at Copper Mountain. I can only imagine the attention those exotic girls got in a ski town! Not surprisingly, she was snapped up by a boy from Denver who made sure to come up with a ring!
