Behind the Scenes: Kenneth Barlis

Today, I had a wonderful opportunity to work with my super team again. I just have to say I love working with Kenneth Barlis designs. Its high fashion couture and I had the chance to take the shoot based on ideas I came up with and make up and hair help from Chaya (claudia nunez). I also want to add that this was the first official Canon 5D mark III shoot. It was so exciting. Here are some behind the scenes shots:

Behind the Scenes: White Princess Photoshoot

Today, I spent a lot of time driving to this location and setting up the shoot. Lot of things had gone wrong initially and the shoot was a little uncertain because of everyones travel time. But in the end I am so glad it happened so well. All the uncertainty went away when I saw the designer and make up had already started. Basically, it was all about the location and and the climate around it. Here is the behind the scenes look - pictures from designers and make up artists instagrams:

Behind The Scenes: Brett Siegel Wedding Photography

I love this couple photographer - Brett and Liz Photography. They have helped me understand the importance of people skills. They are a wonderful couple that used me as a model for their pet photography portfolio. And ever since then I have always tried to get their guidance. Brett and Liz met at photography school. So they have a lot to offer as a couple when it comes to understanding teamwork, techniques in photography and marketing. Here is quick look at the their wedding shoot for an online wedding magazine. I was their assistant for the day.

Behind the Scenes: With Each Cup of Tea

Just wanted to drop by and share a quick behind the scenes look at the previous photoshoot. This is more of a Behind the scenes of the Photoshop work. The shoot was set so that we had the back light of the setting sun. In this case the models were positioned with the setting sun towards our left more than their back. So I had to placed the black diffuser to block light from hitting the models since the nearby tree was causing weird shadows. Then I shot the tree separately which was placed back during photoshop. And I added some highlights of evening sun setting in photoshop color correction. Thanks and do share if you have a different technique that you use.
