Nolan is 2

Time definitely flies, Nolan is 2 today! Due to the snow we could not party today but we will in a couple of weeks. He was kind enough to give me a few poses. And our prayer for you is that you continue to see more beautiful days for the rest of your life.

Love from mum and dad!

he was taking a birthday phone call from grandma

Person of the Week – Nolan

Starting a new post trend, I will be bloging some work no necessarily related to weddings or commercial work. Title of the post will be person or persons of the week. I am launching it with Nolan taken on a recent snow day. This was after we came back from Africa, it seems like he prefers the cold to the heat.

Stephanie and Matt

Some of you may know Stephanie Larimore. She was the playboy’s Miss June in 2006 and featured on the magazine cover that year. I had a couples shoot with her and her boyfriend Matt. I really had fun shooting them and you can feel the love they have for each other from their shots and yes definitely a hot couple. Here are my favs.

This was a strong back lit shot, they make the best black and white and as you can see I have no issues getting them into the pose.

It was sunset and the light was golden no editing on this shot

And we end with a passionate kiss!

Kemi’s shoot

A few of of my favs from Kemi’s birthday shoot or what I call a “feel good” shoot. Most of us don’t think about shooting to celebrate our birthdays but I am glad Kemi was able to do this and you can tell we had fun on this one. Congratulations again Kemi, I know it’s weeks after

Makeup – Bisola Ibrahim

Lighting assistant – Mobola Kingston – Maliqs mum from my posting weeks back

Kemi loves this shot so I am making it my first one.

Salsa and Ronnie

I shot an engagement/couples session with Salsa and Ronnie who got engaged early this year. I always love couples who bring it all to the set, they were fun, loving and very romantic. Here are a few of my favs from their shoot.

We found a truck in a nearby parking lot so we trespassed to get this shot

I thought the V of this tree was a perfect frame for a kiss.

I know I trespass quite a lot at shoots

Rounding up the shoot as it was getting dark so we decided to do some more night shots

The shot above was also lit with my headlights as seen in the shot below.
