Cherry Brandi in Color

My previous post included an all black & white set of classic Hollywood inspired photos of Cherry Brandi and I couldn't be happier with how well they turned out. That session was photographed in color and later converted to black & white to achieve the vintage look. There are some subjects that look better in color, and some that are fantastic in black & white. I think you'll agree that Cherry Brandi is able to do both very well.

I have pulled together some of my favorite color images of Cherry Brandi from our latest photo shoot:

Hollywood Glamour featuring Cherry Brandi

Cherry Brandi came to me with an idea for a photo shoot emulating classic Hollywood glamour. She had a few samples of the type of photos that she wanted, and after studying them for a short time, I was able to engineer a lighting setup to match the style she wanted. They looked good in color, but converting them to black & white changed them into the vintage shots she was after.

I have worked with Brandi twice before, and each time we have come out of our sessions with so many great photos, its hard to pick favorites. This session lasted only half as long as our previous meetings, but produced just as many fantastic shots. I have selected several favorites to share here, but there are even more that will have to wait for another time...

Fowler Family Album

Shelley Fowler contacted me by phone to see if I had any openings that evening for a family portrait session. Five hours later, their session was complete. Last minute sessions are not the norm for my studio, but I work hard to accommodate everyone's schedule to create beautiful photos.

My favorite photos from their session are below:

Laura & Reid Engagement Photos on Location

I attended the Women's Expo event at McGee Park last week to promote my photography business where I held a drawing for a free photo session. Laura & Reid were the lucky winners. They wanted their photos to have a more natural feel so we held their session somewhere they felt comfortable, the Farmington Public Library.

Here are my favorite photos from their session:
