Neon Workshop with Azulox – Ballroom ATX

admin — Sat, 24 Sep 2022 15:15:11 +0000

How often do I get to play with neon lighting and photograph models in a bar a night? Not very often. Luckily I signed up for the:

80s Neon Shooting Experience with Josh Baker

hosted by Precision Camera, taught by Azulox Visuals, held at The Ballroom’s Speakeasy and got a chance to try new lighting techniques.

See some favorites in the gallery below, full set available HERE.

Styled Shootout – Hosted by @JessicaRockowitz and @ChasingChaneyPortraits

Family Photo Session Workshop at Commons Ford Ranch

I went to a styled shoot-out hosted by Jessica Rockowitz and Chasing Chaney Photography. What is a styled shoot-out? It’s when one photographer (or more) provide the models, outfits and location and a group of photographers attend to take turns posing and photographing the families.

It’s a collaborative way to try out new techniques and learn from other photographers.

Our location was Commons Ford Ranch – a beautiful park in southwest Austin. The only hurdle was the three-digit heat – but everyone brought lots of fans and water – and we made sure our model families took breaks.

You can see some of my favorites from this workshop in the gallery below. If you’d like to schedule your own photo session, please use the contact form at the bottom on the page.

Studio Lighting Class

admin — Mon, 25 Jun 2018 14:59:07 +0000

When I do family photo sessions, 95% of the time it’s in natural light and an outdoor setting. But every once in a while, I use studio lights (for headshots, for photo booths at parties, for interior portrait sessions). So this summer, I thought it would be a good idea to take a refresher lighting class. I signed up for Intermediate Studio Lighting at Precision Camera here in Austin, TX.

A side effect of the class is now I want to upgrade my lighting gear (I knew that would happen) – but it was great to practice different lighting techniques – split, loop, Rembrandt, butterfly, etc.

So if your session calls for studio lighting, I’m excited to try some different set-ups. (Hair-flipping optional ;))
