If there was one good thing about 2020, it’s that we had a little bit of time on our hands to go back and look through some older sessions and update them with some newer editing techniques we’ve learned and to look for hidden gems we missed the first time through the sets. (more…)

It’s been a few years since we exercised our specialty of shooting with cars and bikes, but that doesn’t mean we don’t still *love* doing it!! Did you know that we used to be called the “car guy” in actual car guy circles around this area? We have shot with some of the finest cars in Atlantic Canada from a ’47 Jaguar XK140, a ’76 Yenko Camaro, several Porsches, countless muscle cars and one of our favorites, a Lamborghini Gallardo superleggera edition.

That’s why when we got a call from our friend Amber who had a friend with a spectacular custom Yamaha R1 super bike, we knew it was time to dust off the ol’ camera and knock the rust off our bike posing skills. Then, while #DreamTeamMUA Bryana was doing her makeup for the shoot, another friend, Dropout_Rari popped in with his Alfa Romeo 4C and the shoot turned into one for the history books! 

Amber hasn’t modeled much for the last few years but “go big or go home” is apparently her motto and this shoot ROCKED!!

We also managed to get three publications from this set including one of my very favorite men’s glamour magazines, Fuse. I’ve followed Fuse for several years now and check out every single issue. We’ve had sets included in this wonderful magazine 4 times now and have been featured on their web site twice more including their third most popular video on their Youtube channel with over 14k views since it was posted this past summer.

We were so busy shooting Amber with these incredible vehicles that we actually forgot to take any video!! 🙁

But I’m sure you will forgive us. The photo set stands pretty well on it’s own. 😉

Some time ago, when we left our downtown studio after several years there, we decided to celebrate with a set of shoots during the final week of our residency. One of those sets included the beautiful and free spirited Rae Rose. 

During the “Covid months” early this year with not much else to do, we went back through some of these shoots to re-work several of the images using modern editing technique we have since picked up and to see if there were any gems we missed from the first time around. In this case, there were both! Resulting in a number of new edits and previously discarded images that caught our attention this time.

This set was also picked up in French Magazine DOMINANTE which features nude and boudoir fashion images from top photographers all over the world. I was thrilled to be part of such a beautifully produced magazine and to be company with some truly fine photographers too! 

The images from this set were a little too racy to share on our Instagram or Facebook feeds though, so we are limited to only sharing them here as they are *definitely* not to be considered “work safe” and we think you’ll agree! 🙂
