Studio Fun!

Yesterday was a fun day at the studio all day.  First my friend Justin Holle needed some cool shots for his Personal Training business Element 3.  He wanted to do some photos of himself for the Gym he trains at and put them on the wall as art.  So we set out to do some artistic like photos but not your traditional B/W gym or body building photos.  I guess the idea is “wow thats cool, I want him to train me” type of attitude the photos were trying to give.  So we set up some lights and I told him to pump up.  That isn’t very hard for him with like no body fat at all.  Makes us regular people look pretty bad.  So when I’m finished there will be a series of 10 photos going on the wall.  I am not sure exactly what the final photos will look like but here is a little taste of what to expect.  

Sort of looks like a MMA fighter.  We wanted to start with the tough look.

After some of the artistic ones we went into the direction of Fashion for his Modeling portfolio.  So maybe he can get the Calvin Klein campaign from these.  

After that we had a little basketball fun.  I wanted to capture him flying thru the air dunking the ball.  But have the studio set as a background.  I got a couple of good ones.  

I always have fun shooting Justin and he is always up for whatever I throw at him.  

After Justin left a female model came in who I shot her first photos about 5 years ago.  After taking some time off of modeling and keeping out of trouble, Sarah Eschner decided to start over and have some new photos done.  So we went through the motions of the regular modeling photos.  We did manage to get some cool body shots and some fashion ones as well.  I think she will start to get her modeling career back on track.

I like it when I get 2 great models in one day.  I had a lot of fun shooting and I hope they had the same.  I will be posting more photos in the future so stay tuned.
