This lovely gal, Anastasia desires to become a commercial model and she is definitely off to a great start! These images are for her modeling comp card and printed portfolio book. We spent some time in the studio and then drove to a scouted location for an outdoor portrait. It was a full day of fun, even Anastasia's mom enjoyed the experience! By the way, Anastasia is also on a basketball team! You go girl!

Here are a few behind the scene photos of my recent project with the Daytona State Dance Theatre students. We definitely enjoyed the attention from beach go-ers and local surfers. Some people were more friendly than others...but nonetheless-we got the job done! I'm super excited to announce  this is my first project printed as a book.Thank you so much Melissa, Sarah, Zach, Scott, Ashley, and Nicole for sharing your talent and hardwork!!

Just finished up a photo shoot with Sarah Horne-Rone! She's a Civil War reenactor and needed an updated portfolio. When I say updated...I mean UPDATED. Sarah has been wanting to model in the studio for years! I really enjoyed bringing the storytelling concept into her images. Sarah, I'm delighted to have the opportunity to work together. Thank you!

I worked on this project a few months ago and finally realized I forgot to blog this! What the heck Erika! Basically, I wanted to portray the effects of striving for perfection. Trying to be perfect can drive a person mad and it's not worth the pain, so we should embrace our imperfection.  Amen to that! 

 I collaborated with Kelcie Barbuti with make up ideas and she did an amazing job! She totally got my concept of what I wanted and the dancers really enjoyed acting the part. It was a team effort to finalize  our concept and we came up with " Disturbed" after shooting a few frames.  

Thank you Kelcie Barbuti and Daytona State Dance Theatre!

Alicia Fernandez teaches dance classes at her church and she called me up  last month to inquire about a photo shoot. I love kids and dance, but the two together is even better!  I felt pretty excited to photograph her students again. Here are some images from the shoot. 

Location: Studio 13,Deltona,Fl

Thanks Alicia!

These are some photos I took for myself, but keep watch for the published photos in the Orlando Magazine.
