Kids & Cupcakes

Monday, May 24th, 2010

…My sister-in-law Kristi recently opened a cupcake bakery, Dolce Cupcakery in Pittsford, NY- www.dolcecupcake.com.  She and her staff make the most delicious cupcakes, and, as she’s located right under my new studio in Schoen Place, I’ve become the official taste-tester. Not a bad gig really, tastebud-wise, but I think my waistline would disagree… As Kristi’s walls in the shop were a blank canvas, I decided to gather some little ones, hop them up on her buttercream frosting and chase them around while they were on a sugar rush to capture some wonderful portraiture for her customers.

Rochester Nightcraze with WPXY and CJ Sound

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

I received an invite to shoot the craziness that is Rochester Nightcraze, a dance-fest at the Expo center’s Minnet Hall produced by WPXY FM 97.9 and CJ Sound, and I readily accepted.   Music by WPXY’s Rafael and Buffalo’s WKSE 98.5’s Nicholas Picholas and CJ Sound., Lit by a full laser show, attendees were glowing in the dark, breakdancing and sweating to the beats…

This kid amazed me- dancing has changed a bit since this leadfoot last hit the floor...

Fantastic laser show...

My head hurt just watching this kid...

Lisa LaRuez Portfolio Shoot

Monday, May 10th, 2010

The lovely Lisa LaRuez came into the studio needing to freshen up her modeling portfolio, as it was looking a bit dated. During a modeling portfolio session, we try to show many differing looks, so Lisa would shoot fitness, casual, fashion, etc. to really broaden her book in a style similar to the shoots I’ve worked on for Talbots, LLBean, Nordstrom, etc.
