This was a shot I took while filming a high fashion photo shoot with Fashion Photographer Polina Osherov.  I have been a long time fan of her work and was excited that she asked me to be a part of this shoot.  I am always looking for ways to keep my creativity alive and to find inspiration in many things.  I love fashion photography because it challenges you to communicate a message to the viewer in one single frame.  What I like about this image is that it is an in between shot where no direction was being given.   I love black and white photos because it is simple and was a contrast to the dramatic look of the models.

We will be producing a video to explore where Polina and her team get their inspiration and how they approach each concept or project.  There is so much I can learn from these types of shoots in terms of lighting and direction and it is valuable in applying to cinematography.  Cinematography is all about framing, composition, lighting and movement and all of these elements were experimented with during this shoot.  I talked a little with Polina, who’s father was a Cinematographer in Russia.  I would love to sit down with him some time and pick his brain.  I’m sure he has some great stories.

Adam and Laura’s wedding day was absolutely beautiful. The weather was just perfect. We had an opportunity to learn about Laura, Adam and their family during their couples interview, which we filmed for their Love Story and to include some of that footage for their wedding movie. When we first met with Laura, she told us that their wedding is very important to them and they wanted to spend money they budgeted on wedding video and photography. This is always hard for us to communicate to people. Laura had an understanding of focusing on things that preserve the fleeting memories of the wedding day. We enjoyed working with Photographer Jessica Strickland, who always does amazing work.

Thank you Adam and Laura for including us to help document your wedding day.
