As part of the kick-off of Fashion Week in Buffalo, the Waiting Room hosted the Fame Fashion Show on Thursday, September 19, 2013. Here are some images from that show!
This was a fun shoot - Buffalo Glam and Glow at the Town Ballroom. Everything under black lights. It was challenging to shoot, challenging to edit, but a fun concept and a fun event!
Buffalo Fashion Week 2013 Kicked Off with a press conference and the Black Swan Shoot in Niagara Square yesterday. Here are some scenes of the event!
I'll put these in my portfolio eventually too, but here are some samples of the editorial shoots from today, May 4, 2013:
...over 700 photos to go through from today, and still five more shoots tomorrow...
As evidence to how wrong How I Met Your Mother is when they make cracks about women from Buffalo, I present to you Kayte and KateLynn.
These two women are beautiful, both physically and in spirit. Ever get those unfair stereotypes that women this good looking are stand-offish, snooty or unapproachable? Not these two. We have aches today from laughing so much with them while putting together these images last night.
Speaking of which, more images from this shoot will be in the member's only section of the site shortly.
But yeah, they're from Buffalo and they're amazing people.
I'm glad I get to work with them!
Photos of one of my favorite models. She posed so nicely, and wore her flowing dress of green so elegantly.
Of course, sometimes models are a bit reluctant. There is nothing wrong with capturing them in a jar to keep them from running off to do something else.
But you can't retain their services for very long if you keep them in the jar, so eventually you have to get them to the set. In this case, a cool, shady spot in some tall grass where she can stretch her long legs and become one with her surroundings.
Once on the set, she is all business. Posing, hunting and playing the game -
Look how she curls back to stalk and snare her prey!
And after this set, it's time for some easier poses.
Ok, good. Good profile. Now how about the other side?
And turn.... great! Perfect shot!
Ok, now turn toward the camera... perfect... looking great!
And now how about a shot where you're looking back over your shoulder...
Now, I need fierce. Hunting. Stalking. You see what you want and you're going to get it!
Great! Here is a wounded male mosquito to help you get into the part... just get a little closer... use those angles... lean... a little further...
...now... STRIKE!
That's the shot! Fantastic! Now, it's all yours... you've been amazing!
Good, good pose for the portrait shot...
Ok, hold that pose, we'll get some close ups...
Excellent... show me those big green eyes...
And that's a wrap! Thank you - a professional, as always!
Because even the best and most serious models have fun when working with us. The laughter is inevitable, and of course, I will just keep taking pictures.
