Here's a shot of Brianne jumping for joy...or...for Spring? I can't tell you - really - how glad I am we're warming up outside. That was one heck of a long winter, folks. But, I'm thrilled to report we're booked up through the end of the month, and well into May, with a variety of shoots that will take advantage of the weather. If you have a need for some child portraits, family portraits, or pet portraits that would look amazing in a spring setting, shoot me a mail or give us a call. . .I truly can't wait to spend every minute I can outside!

Here's a recent shot of a certain creative director for Optimum Lightpath, thinking hard on what sorts of very cool networking solutions he'll help bring to our doorsteps here on Long Island. This was a little bit of a challenging executive portrait, as we had a room for a set that didn't lend itself well in regards to backgrounds.

The solution? Shut out the lights! Or in this case, sync my strobes to flash brightly and set the camera for s fast shutter speed - illuminating my subject, but not much else in the room. Location photography presents a different equation every time, and I think that's one of the things I find so fun and attractive about it. No two days the same, and I get to excercise the 'ol noodle.

And this fuzzy fellow? He's a Portuguese Water Dog, and a darn cute one. In fact, President Obama and his family just welcomed one of his cousins into the White House. This puppy was VERY spunky when I photographed him, but too just as compliant as could be when we got down to business. As a stock image, it's flying off of shelves.
