Video portraits

2011-04-03T16:28:00.000-07:00

We recently did a shoot where the client wanted both stills and video of their team members. Fortunately they had a room that was large enough to accommodate two sets, so each person went into makeup first, next had their still shots done, then moved to the video set. This let us move through the shot list pretty quickly, without making people wait around too long, or having to come to the shoot location two different times. Here's how the video turned out.

Here is this year's card, and you can view previous cards here. Almost everyone around here turned into a Giants fan this fall. If you'd like to get on our mailing list, just let us know.

We're doing more videos these days. Here's a short clip from one that was done for a corporate meeting in Brazil. Unfortunately, the client didn't send us there to do the shoot.

Video test

PYT's Footloose

2010-07-27T18:06:00.001-07:00

We recently did some publicity photos for PYT's summer production of "Footloose". It was not exactly difficult to get a bunch of teenagers jumping on the mini-trampoline we set up in the studio, even tho' they'd just been in rehearsal for 3 hours.

PYT volunteer work

2010-06-30T09:57:00.000-07:00

Our daughter has done many plays over the years at Peninsula Youth Theater, and parents are required to put in volunteer hours on their children's plays. The first job I had there was "Green Room Monitor", which chiefly consisted of yelling at kids "No Running in the Hallways!", "No Eating While in Costume!" and other pithy comments. I promised myself I'd find a better job, and quickly. For many shows I operated one of the follow spots, which is really a fantastic job, provided you're not too concerned about working way up in the catwalks. It's best not to look down too often at the audience, 40 feet below you. Nowadays I take headshots and performance photos for them, and I'll post some of them from time to time. These are some photos from the PYT Alumni show "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee".

Medical product photography

We sometimes joke that we should change our studio name to Catheters 'R Us, or something similar. We do shoot a lot of catheters, stents and other medical devices, but I actually find most of the products, and what they can do inside our bodies, pretty interesting.

Here's our crazy card for this year (front and back). There are more here, and if you'd like to get on our mailing list, just let us know.

Underwater photos

2009-07-27T20:21:00.000-07:00

My daughter wanted to take some photos in the swimming pool, and had some good ideas. I've never tried shooting underwater before, and it didn't seem to warrant running out and buying an expensive underwater housing for one of our cameras. So, I went to my favorite shopping location (that would be eBay, of course) and picked up what looks like a very heavy duty Ziploc bag, made by Ewa Marine. I wasn't ready to trust it to protect the D700, but I was willing to use our old D100. Although shooting with the enclosure is quite cumbersome, it did a perfect job of keeping the camera dry, and we were quite happy with how the photos turned out.
