Country Style Model Shoot...

What's more fun than hanging out on a farm all day? Getting to shoot with four models and a horse named Sleepy.

This was such a fun shoot despite the HOT weather. The shoot took place on a farm in Sherburne, NY. A long drive but worth every minute of it.

The models were fantastic and drove from as far away as New Jersey. Now that's dedication. They were all so professional and a joy to work with. Makes my job so much easier.

Thanks to Kim from Big Paw Photography for arranging the shoot and booking the models. I know it's a lot of work coordinating these shoots and making sure everything flows flawlessly.

Models: Zebeeb, Josh, Charlene & Tatyana

A few of my faves from the day...

Desi { model shoot }...

Oh my gosh, I almost forgot to blog about my Urban shoot with Desi. I've shot with her a few times and always enjoy it. Last couple shoots were at the beach, one in Oswego and one at Chimney Bluffs. This time I wanted her in an urban setting. I've know Desi since she was 8 years old. I can always count on her to model for me. She has a great personality and a fresh, modern style to go along with it.

So of course we shot in downtown Syracuse, lol. Brought along some fun fashions and walked around until we found cool locations. We were lucky enough to have the perfect weather too. That always helps.

Here are a few from the shoot.

We actually got in trouble for this one. Who knew we were on Federal property? I just like the concrete.

Molly - Downtown Syracuse...

How lucky am I? I keep finding all of these gorgeous, talented models. They make my job so much easier.

This is Molly. She's another model from Rochester. And also great to work with. Awesome with her facial expressions and posing. I had a hard time choosing the images for this post too.

We did a shoot in downtown Syracuse (sorry my favorite place). I just love downtown and prefer to shoot on location using natural light when possible. Just walk a few blocks and you find all kinds of cool backgrounds and locations.

I'm hoping to work with Molly again sometime soon.

I had this one printed as a 16x20. It is proudly hanging in my studio...

Christina - Urban Model Shoot...

My first time shooting with Christina from Rochester. All I can say is "WOW". She is an amazing model to say the least. So easy to work with and great with her posing. And a fantastic personality too.

We did an Urban Style shoot in downtown Syracuse. I had so many great images from this shoot it was hard to choose which ones to post. I even used one of the images on my personal Comp Card.

Watch for more of Christina! She'll be everywhere. And will be featured on a billboard in the Rochester area soon. Visit her on Model Mayhem here.

Trash the Dress...

My very first Trash the Dress shoot. It was fabulous. I was lucky enough to have new model, Jenn for this shoot. She was amazing and willing to get wet. She even wore my wedding dress.

The location was my favorite place in Oswego on the shore of Lake Ontario. The rocks and waves made it the perfect location.

Check out Jenn on Model Mayhem here.

Kendra - Oswego Shoot...

Another shoot with model Kendra. This time we went to one of my favorite locations in Oswego behind the power plant on the shore of Lake Ontario. It really is a beautiful location with a beach area, huge rocks and some other cool stuff.

I'm never disappointed when I shoot with Kendra. She always photographs so well and pink is a great color on her too.

Desi - Chimney Bluffs

Another great model shoot. This time with model Desiree, on a cool, windy, not so nice day. My second shoot with this model in two days. We were a bit tired. It was not the best for shooting but we managed to get a few keepers. The location was Chimney Bluffs State Park in Wolcott, NY. The location was suggested by a client and I'm so glad we made the trip there. It was well worth it.

I do plan on returning to the park on a HOT summer day with the family when I can enjoy it more.

I'm looking forward to another shoot with Desiree soon.

Desi - Oswego

A sunset model shoot on the shore of Lake Ontario in Oswego. I had a gorgeous sunset, beautiful model and perfect weather for this shoot. I couldn't have asked for anything more, except maybe more time. Some of my favorites from this shoot. It's always hard to choose which ones to blog about.

Model: Desiree
