A year already?

My friends Jake and Nicole have given me the opportunity to follow their journey into parenthood. I initially photographed the couple during Nicole’s pregnancy. Later, I photographed baby Wes *very* soon after he was born and then again at 6 months. No matter how many kids and families I get to shoot photos with, I am always – ALWAYS – amazed at how quickly children grow up. I can’t believe I just shot one year old portraits for my little buddy, Wes. Happy birthday, little man! And thank you to “The Jakes” for letting me have a part in your adventure.

Sisters in Family Portrait

Left and Right Coast

We took advantage of ridiculously awesome fall weather here in the Charlotte area, and set up another outdoor photo session. This is one of many we’ve booked this fall. Two sisters separated by just about every mile across this country got together for a visit, and requested this photoshoot to document the occasion. It is so awesome to be able to capture moments like these in peoples’ lives.

Have a look! We posted some new work in our Portrait Gallery. There are a couple of new photos from a family portrait session on the Outer Banks last month. We’re able to shoot pretty much anywhere in North Carolina with enough notice. If you’d like to schedule a family photo session hit the contact page, and choose your preferred method of communication. You can also get in touch with Vision Photos photographers on our facebook page.

Key Ingredients for Photographic Success

Model. Ice Box. Brick Wall.

That’s everything you need for a rad shot just before the sun goes all the way down. I set up an informal photo practice session in Charlotte with some friends who wanted to try out new gear. I figured I could help them make better use of their photographic equipment, and maybe shoot a few pics in the process. Well, here’s one that works so well because it’s just a simple photo of a pensive and elegant model.

If you’re a model (or want to be) in North Carolina, let me know if you’d like to build your portfolio with some fashion and lifestyle photos.

Senior Portraits on a Rainy Day in Charlotte

This spring in Charlotte turned out to be monsoon season or something, and this shoot was booked, canceled, and re-booked a couple of times. Even on the day of the shoot, we had to work around evening thunder and rain to make these photos. The rain let up eventually and we were able to get out in the open at the parking deck we were shooting in. I like this spot for senior pictures for dudes. It’s got a good industrial/mechanical/steel feel which makes guys look a little more at home. Check these out, and let me know what you think.

Backlight is Your Friend

I like backlit shots. Backlit shots on stairs are cool, too. This is one. As I get minutes here and there, I’m still processing images from a shoot I did with some friends in Mooresville. So the images are showing up randomly in posts like this. Enjoy!

Downtown Mooresville Fashion Shoot

I got together with a couple other photographer friends and models for a fashion style shoot in downtown Mooresville. We just wanted to test out some equipment, and see what we could find in terms of interesting settings around town. Turns out, Mooresville offers a lot of good locations for photos. Here is a sneak peek of 1 of the images… I’ll get more posted when I get some time to edit.

Location Scouting

Apr 012010
 

I’m always looking for good locations and scenes to do portrait sessions in Charlotte. There’s one area that I’ve driven past so much that I practically never even give it a second thought. Something clicked the other day, and I realized it would be perfect for a late afternoon photo shoot. So I took my test models (wife & daughter) out for a quick shoot to see what I could produce. I got several photos that I think are great, and shared a couple below…

I’ll definitely add this to my list of spots for future portrait sessions, and the lesson here is that exotic (or studio) locations are easy to dream about. Sometimes, though, you’ll find a really great backdrop right under your nose.

Charlotte Newborn Photo Session

Mom and Baby in Natural Light

Last week I was asked to photograph this beautiful 2 week old baby at the family’s home in Charlotte. This photo of her mom holding her is one of my favorite images I’ve made.  Maybe it’s because her expression reminds me of my own daughter; maybe it’s the natural light; maybe it’s just a sweet portrait of a baby with her mom.
