The Finishing Touches...

.... Just wrapped shooting our new motion piece for Chastity Brown. The final touch was shooting a sound check at The Cedar Cultural Center in Minneapolis. A few stills to accompany the soon to be edited motion spot, just to give a taste of where we were and what we were doing. Chastity is a pleasure to work with as much as she is a pleasure to watch up on stage. Looking forward to getting into our edits and hoping to share a new motion spot in the upcoming week. Stay tuned...

Growing A Brand...

... Enjoying some time behind the monitor on a month long project with Winfield Solutions/Land O' Lakes/Colle + McVoy... working on color correcting the first few legs of the shoot before we head to Florida this weekend. Looking forward to continuing to beef up the library when we touch down. So far we have had a great time learning about a few of their vast products. Some of them I understand, some not so much...but I'll shoot them all! Lot's of cool work to show soon, and more to come as we'll be heading out west in a few weeks for an awesome motion project...

US Bank...

..... Last week one of the shoots we did allowed us to work on some portraits for US Bank. Simple. Clean. Quick. Photographing executives in a more corporate setting sometimes means working with talent that does not have a lot of time. Producing good photos that help define a brand and tell a story means you need to figure out your light quickly, and still make your subject feel at ease. I love shoots like this and had a great time shooting a handful of people in and around their downtown setting. Here is just a taste of the results...

Chastity Brown...

..... Some recent still images from a shoot with Chastity Brown. Last year we began working with Chastity on a library of images for her recently released album Backroad Highways. This year, we got on board for a hybrid shoot of both video and stills. With a backlog of work at the moment, we are hoping to get underway on the edit soon and would love to share it as soon as it becomes available. There is some really great stuff in the can to go through, stay tuned for a peak in the upcoming weeks...As for now, re-charging the batteries to get out the door bright and early in the morning for another library shoot....
