With endless thanks to my friend, and very talented photographer, Beth Smith, who's sold me some awesome gear to shoot with. She's been kind enough to loan me the gear, so I can learn, before I could even pony up the cash for it! So it's only fair to plug her work here as well. It's the least I can do in return. Check out her stuff at edisonphotography.com
So, aside from the photos I took at TIFF this year (which you can see in my last blog), I did a free photo shoot this thanksgiving weekend to get my feet wet and have some sort of portfolio started. I am fortunate enough to have people trust that I'd do a good job and believe I'm somewhat talented, haha. So I'd like to thank my friends Emily and Courtney, and my cousin Paolo, who did a great job modeling for me on Saturday.
Here are just a few photos from that shoot:
To check out the whole album of photos, go to my flickr page or view my facebook album.
It's crazy how after a shoot you end up with 550+ photos and keep maybe 40-50 of them if you're lucky! It's such a fun process though from start-to-finish, like anything else creative. When you're out on a shoot, everything around you suddenly becomes a potential piece of artwork. It's such a cool way to observe our surroundings.
Anyways, before this blog gets too long, I should probably wrap it up here.
If you are interested in having photos done for yourself, your band, your friends, your family, your day at the dentist - whatever! Just let me know and I'll see what I can do!
Many thanks,
- Patrick
