Just happen to have a couple of HS senior shoots and they were both named Christina/Kristina. Although the names are similar each shoot was definitely unique and fun.

Congratulations girls!

Someday I will be able to say, “I knew him before he was a rock-star.” JB as his friends call him has his eye focused on music. This was to be his High School Senior photo shoot but after talking to him we decided that this could also be an opportunity to also shoot some promotional photos for his upcoming single. As a result the photos from the shoot have a bit more of a dramatic element, some of which is a direct result of JB. Photographing with JB was a cinch, he had many great ideas and together we collaborated on one my favorite Senior photo shoots to date. This definitely was not your ordinary Senior photography for your out of the ordinary Senior. Thank you very much Justin and Monica for an exceptional time.

Meet Brandy, she is a high energy girl who just wants to have some fun.

We did our first High School Senior shoot for 2008 with Brandy the other day. Below are a couple of our favorites from the shoot. The style is definitely not your run of the mill studio pictures. Which really goes to show you what you can do when you combine the fiery personality of Brandy with a little bit of surf at the beach.

We all had a great couple of hours together, shooting in the studio and around Long Beach. Thanks Brandy if you happen to read this.

Just a preview from our photo shoot with Nikka the other day.

This was a great photo shoot which on paper should have been 2 hours long, but turned into a marathon 5 hour shoot. Worth the effort, as you can see from the image above, tons of great images.

More to come…

We had the honor of photographing the stunning fashion model Maggie Brown this past week. Maggie was the winner of Tyra Banks “Thick and Sexy Top Model” and has gone on to a very successful career as a highly demanded fashion model.

Our shoot with Maggie was AMAZING! Not only is Maggie beautiful, but above all she is incredibly humble, and exudes such positive energy. What a pleasure it was to have photographed her at our studio in Long Beach.
