Passage of Time

…my last share from the archives for awhile! A couple of these were photographed a few years ago for a botanical photography class at the Franklin Park Conservatory (taught by Julia McLemore with Joyce Tenneson visiting as a guest speaker/teacher). The orchid bloom and buds were the remnants of a gift given to Ryan and...

All the World’s a Stage PTII (the player)

…just a follow-up to a previous post– more experimentation after sundown! I’m preparing to take this series of work even further at the AfterDark event next month in Charlotte, NC. There’s a pond just outside of the hotel…hope you can make it out to play! Share on Facebook

Summer Nights

We squeezed every ounce of daylight we could out of this family/post-senior portrait session. The start of our evening was sunny and hot, but by 8:30 the sky was already darkened; a reminder that autumn is less than a month away.

All the World’s a Stage

Thanks so much to my photographer friend, Pam Burley, and actress friend, Erin Fisher of Soltice Theatre Company, for trekking out into the water with me to experiment with some new lighting techniques! The light I really wanted to use finally arrived by mail since this photo shoot, so you may see an update to...
