Radio City

Ariel and I took a little trip downtown last night. I decided to shoot some photographs while we relaxed outside. This was probably one of the most peaceful nights I've ever experienced in New York. In the midst of all the chaos was silence. It was warm, breezy and getting dark out. This night is definitely going to be a nostalgic one for me.

First Nikon Shoot: Sarah

My friend Sarah came to New York to visit for the summer. She and I haven't seen each other for over 10 years. Today was also the first day I had my camera with me in New York. Sarah and I spent the day roaming around Times Square. I'm still new to the city. So I unfortunately couldn't show her around. But it's safe to say that I was still ecstatic to have to honor to photograph such a beautiful lady as herself. She was so fun to shoot with and wasn't afraid to be silly! The camera definitely loved her and it was such great practice for me. These photos are all raw and unedited. I think I'm beginning to realize that all of my female friends are extremely photogenic. Such beauties like her don't need airbrushing!

First Test Shoot: Ashford

Here are the last of my "First Test Shoot" chronicles. These were taken on a rainy day, in the parking spot of a strangers home...right before Ashford's exams? I disagree with his outfit completely, but you gotta give the guy props for showing up.

First Test Shoot: Carter

Here are the only surviving shots from Carter's test shoot. I think I took the most test shots with Carter. The day was muggy and cloudy so it was hard for a newbie to get a good shot. But I actually like these because they are kind of candid. Shooting with Carter was probably the most amusing. Never thought guys would be so cooperative. The ones I had saved were ironically photos that were taken in bad lighting and were uneditable. Funny, because the photos I took of Ariel and Brittany didn't need editing at all!
