Have you heard about Carolina Photography Modeling & Light?

Photographers Wanted!

We have a Photography Meetup Group in Concord! I have always wanted to help with something to make a difference for Photographers who are in the learning stages and beginning to develop their style of Photography. We hold our meetings once a month and bring in experienced models to make your experience as fun and educational as possible. We mainly concentrate on working with strobes, helping you with lighting and simple model interaction. If you are looking to add some fabulous looking ladies to your portfolio this is where you need to be. Our group is open to all experience levels of Photographers but we love to help the newbies and watch them grow with each Meetup we have. We also have a Facebook page that you can send a request to join and see what all of the fun is about. If you are not a member of Meetup.com you will need to join there first and then request to join our group. Below is an image of each of the 3 models that will be attending our next Meetup on Oct 21st 2012. This is one you don’t want to miss for sure! Under the picture of the models are the links to everything that you need to join the group!

JAMES….. WHERE ARE YOU!! Okay, looks like it’s just me!

Some times things come together pretty quickly and such was the case when friend and fellow Photographer James LeMond contacted me about the two of us teaming up for a shoot with Crystal Enloe for a lingerie shoot for Sexy Skin Magazine. Obviously after one look at Crystal and how stunning she is you can see why I said “Yep, I’m in”! Long story short we lined up MUA Stephanie Flower and all was set to go.

Until …… James could not get to the shoot. Sadly Crystal was not familiar with my work and when she found out James could not make it in a panic stricken voice she says “Can you handle it by yourself”? :) It was innocent and very sweet but I assured her to relax as I told her “No worries, I got this”! We keep it sexy and we keep it classy! Below are the results.

Ummm…. you want me to wear fangs????

Okay, so after passing a few messages back and forth Melanie and I finally caught up with each other and the details of the session fell into place quickly just like it was meant to be. After a 2 hour conversation and a portfolio review we knew it was a good fit. When she arrived at the studio she was greeted by myself and Stephanie Flower my friend and a terrific MUA that has been spot on for my needs as of late. Melanie’s friend Bailey came along for the fun as well. We ran through about 5-6 outfits and really made the most of a terrific afternoon. By the end we both agreed 100% that this was the first of many times that we will be working together! Enjoy the results!

I thought you only did make-up and hair?

Okay, so about 2 months ago I start searching for someone to help me with make up and hair so I would have  someone else if my friend Jenny Le was busy and along comes Stephanie. We worked together on Brooke Cohn’s modeling session and I REALLY liked her work. Then a little less than a week ago out of the blue Steph sends me this email and says she would like to get in front of my lens! Needless to say I was all ready for that. So me, Steph and her Husband Neal met at an old mill location for our session together. We had a BLAST! I knew she would be terrific and sure enough….. well here is the proof!

The WHAT is bananas????

Okay, believe it or not I am not much of a people person…. unlike my wife who can make friends with a light post :) I usually take a little while to warm up but when I met Meg she had a killer personality and it was go from the minute we started. Needless to say the images came out great and we had such a great time we scheduled session #2 for the end of the month! Watch for round 2 from this brunette beauty! Thanks Meg :)
