You asked....

What you think of that Designer Ad?? Shout out to Dezines By
Denae. It was a great working with you and your models. I shot
this photo in Philadelphia, for a upcoming magazine. I would say
that my style would be simply magazine-ish so I've heard lol. I laughed when I first heard that but it is true. I've always been
fascinated by the Armani Exchange Ads, Gucci, Louis Vuitton. Even way before I started photography, when my mother would
get magazines in the mail, I'd go through just to see what the ads looked like, and after getting into photography I knew the direction I aimed at going. With this photo for instance, We stopped the driver, who was parked on the phone and asked if we could borrow the cab. He didn't care, so basically I just had the model climbing out, in a more high fashion way then how a person would regularly step out of a vehicle. If you noticed the right arm on the top of the door, the left arm on the handle, and the left leg out, you would think she climbed over someone to make it out of the vehice. ALL of this was planned to give the image more of a better look. A lot of people don't even notice that she has a ring pop on her finger lol. I must admit, I didnt notice it either until the editing stages, but it was fine I guess.


This photo to the left was done to give a different scene. I wanted to give the viewer the impression that the vehicle was moving. This came when the the one in the rear pulled up behind ours. As it parked and I looked to see if they were going to cut our time short, I noticed the green light in the back and thats what gave me the impression that it would look like its moving. Just so happened that the man running in the background made the photo better, because it looks like hes waiting for a break in traffic to cross the street. You never know what will get you that shot, but shooting in a busy surrounding, everything is used as an advantage. I just wanted to share this with everybody because since I've posted these I've been asked about them, so theres some behind the scenes work.
