Carolina days.....

Well...it seems like years but I'm back to drop some notes into the blog. I'm in Wilmington North Carolina on the Coast and it is a visual candy store. It seems that whenever I travel my senses go on high alert to new images.....and new foods. Being on the coast the grasses are going to be fun as I can pre-visualize an image of them that will express time drawn out....you'll see that image soon.The light is not right now as it is too bright....even at a slow film speed. I need it to be a REALLY low light.

Before I left Tulsa I came to the conclusion that I needed to change the direction on the treatments of two walls in the camera room of the studio. I'm changing from brick to Tin and a "rock " treatment in one area to two types of paint. Primary concerns on the change were the "look" and time.

The Senior Portrait season is upon us and I am having clients book consultations right and left concerning the ideas I have for the Senior portrait "style" I'll be offering. Every Senior is different and I have always tried to create a unique portrait collection for that individual client. I can think of nothing more boring OR unfair to the client and myself than producing "cookie cutter" portraits of my clients. It is not my style and I just won't do it.

If you want to follow what I'm saying visually sign up as a follower on my blog as I'll be posting images throughout the "season" giving you an idea of what I'm talking about.
