Detroit Michigan Commercial Photographers Mary DuPrie So I had another Meetup on Saturday night, Photographing Models with Mary DuPrie Studios.  A smaller group of photographers and we did just this one setup.  I normally have a concept in mind as far as lighting.  I wanted to overexpose the background and use neutral density gels on […]

Andi, July 2010 Workshop During the last workshop I mentioned to the guys when there was down time to take Andi around the studio and shoot her quick and easy with window light.  My studio is so overwhelming their minds go crazy with possibilities and they soon get off track.  There are so many backgrounds […]

Stripped Bare

July 1, 2010

You just never know what you’re going to get when a new model walks in the door.   I’ve been fooled many times in the past so when I see a new model I don’t form an opinion, the camera decides. I gained this attitude from shooting twins years ago.   Upon first seeing them I decided […]
