Today's test session turned out exactly how I hoped. Used 6 lights to execute this vision. And had new friend Shawn Christian Simms assist by sitting for me as I built the composition.

Connect with me for your studio photography needs this summer!

Today's creative test set-up went exactly as I had hoped!

We used six lights (a mixture of constant light and strobe light) to execute this look and new friend Shawn Christian Simms assisted by sitting for me as I built the composition.

Look in the comments for the final image!

Consider attending today's Charleston Creative Circle Meet-up at Fife Street Brewing from 6pm to 8pm!

Say hello to the camera if you see me there!

Info on today's studio selfie: I intentionally left the gridded light-modifier reflection in the glasses. Pretty fun look.

Today's portrait session with a precocious 2-year-old yielded some adorable portraits, even between the tears. My camera picked up so much personality in each of the images we created, and I'm even glad the little one clung onto her momma through the whole session, because it made for very honest and expressive imagery.

Here's a cool silhouette shot I made of the little with her momma!
