Justin's Debut

Many of my clients come to me by way of "word-of-mouth" because they've heard of my particular style of photography. I have a reputation of loving to photograph faces and that is exactly what drew Justin Dinkins to my studio. He's currently planning on trying his luck in the modeling industry and wanted some great shots to launch his career.

I agreed to do Justin's
head shot session, then I referred him to another colleague who I suggested he should hire to create his remaining images. From what I've seen of Justin during this session I believe he has a great opportunity of making it as a top male model in South Florida. Good luck, Justin. I'm looking for your autographed on your first set of comp card!!!

Enjoy!

Justin has the kind of skin
that works well with lighting.

Yeah, he can be cool, too.

Leteshia Riddick

This session of Leteshia Riddick comes by way of my makeup artist Krystal Cordo. Krystal is currently working on expanding her marketing area for makeup services. Over the next couple of weeks I'll be creating head shots of her work as she uses different models to feature her talents.

Leteshia is the first model on Krystal's list of persons she intend to use as beauty models. I've never photographed Leteshia before, but it was a pleasure working with her for the first time. She is great in front of the camera, has features that really show off Krystal's handy work, and seemed to enjoy all the attention. I look forward to another session with Leteshia were we can create some personal images of her that are just as impressive as the following portraits.

Things My Mother Taught Me #1

My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE.

Kendra's & Clive's Wedding

It's been a little more than a week ago that I photographed Kendra's and Clive's "Love Story" session, and now you get to see some of their wedding images. There were tons of images to choose from and like most times when I'm selecting images for my blog it's a little difficult. This time it was even more difficult because I'm still building my relationship with the couple after only knowing them approximately two weeks.

Nonetheless, I was truly excited about being at their wedding because I knew it was going to be unique and a warm gathering of family and friends. Both Kendra and Clive are such "opened arms" people and they simply invite you into their lives. The images below are just a quick glance at their wedding day, but the slideshow at the bottom will give you the best feeling for what happened.


Enjoy!

Brandy provided all the antics and fun for me. Girls having fun in the hotel room before the ceremony.
Kendra couldn't hold back her tears of joy.
Kendra was one hot looking bride that day.
Clive and his posse.
Clive's groomsmen gave him
a big send off to his honeymoon.

Embassy Suites (Fort Lauderdale) provided
a gorgeous
reception ambiance
for Kendra's and Clive's guests.

A bird's-eye view of the cake from the

unique ways of documenting
the cake a little differently.
