Recent Studio Work. – Dubuque Photography

Our November promotion, along with the bitter cold kept me inside the studio for the majority of last month’s shoots. I would say a good 90% of my work over the last five years has been on location, so I really wanted to step-up my studio craft for this fall. ‘Good, clean images’ has always...

Hey Jesse, I’ll send you a message and let you know!

Thanks for all the comments everyone!!

Graeme,

What is it called when you can see the pentagonal, blurred lights throughout a picture such as the one in the first picture on your recent studio work blog with the young brunette girl? Was this achieved by shooting with a telephoto lens through some dangling lights? If not, how did you get the shapes in the foreground? I’m curious!

What I find the most likeable in your images of people that you’ve posted online is your knack for capturing the happiness, silliness, and goofiness, and doing so in a flattering way. You have a terrific eye for portraiture.

Lovin’ ALL of your studio work too!! You know how to take something such as studio portraits, which usually are over done and stale, and make art out of each and every image. You have a rockin’ talent!

Great pictures! I especially like the one of the toddler in the red dress. ;-)

A) love the light painting self portrait. Glad to see it was a long exposure and not a photoshop insertion.

B) love the one of Lauren. Keep up the good work

I finally know what you look like. Ha! Nice stuff, I especially LOVE the one of the 3 boys in the sheet fort. Very creative.

I started swearing when I saw the image of Lauren…

Aron - December 16, 2010 - 6:46 pm

Kevin - December 16, 2010 - 6:45 pm

Holy wow!!! That superstar image of Lauren is… (I know Anna will hate me for this) EPIC!

Billy & Kara | {ENGAGEMENT}

One of my favorite aspects of my job is that it often allows me to reconnect with people I haven’t seen for a long time. Such is the case with Kara, who I went to elementary school with! Well, it’s officially winter. Billy and Kara deserve a lot of credit for braving the 15 degree...

I love the mushroom pictures, especially the first one.

Liz Gunther - December 4, 2010 - 6:34 am

This might be one of my favorite collections of yours so far :)

Jessica K. - December 4, 2010 - 3:58 am

#5 (if you count the one with the title on it)is going on my list of favorites of yours.

Anna and Kevin | {Engagement}

Anna and Kevin probably don’t know this, but the (secret) location we shot at is very nostalgic to me. It brings back memories of friendship and laughter, and it seemed only fitting to take some photos there with two people who also share a deep connection. This was one of the first really cold days...

I like the darker ones by the fence with the deep blue of the sky contrasting with the human figures. Good work!

Gavin | {10 Months} – Dubuque Photographer

I can’t believe November is already coming to a close! I’ve had so many great shoots this month with the warm weather, and Gavin’s was no exception. We had a great time out in the sun at Flora park. This is my third session with Calvin since he was born, and I couldn’t believe how...
