ACME Photography

This is G, the chef at Monti’s on Mill in Tempe, AZ.

While photographing G, he pulled two spoons out of his back pocket. I thought it was funny and captured this image.

A (very) quick editorial photo from a recent outing with some photography friends of mine from Refocus Phoenix.

We had dinner and photographed some food ( just for the fun of it) Because G let us have our own special room I decided to create a super fast portrait of him. Setting up the lights, metering AND the photo shoot happened in 10 minutes.

3 light setup. 1 small soft box for the keylight, 30deg gridspot for an edge light.& 1 background light.

We photographed a Corporate Golf Event Today at TPC - The Player’s Club in North Scottsdale, AZ. (Hole #16 Stadium Course)

Here’s an action shot….and yes, I "ate a little dirt" (the real reason photographers put UV filters on their expensive glass!

Phoenix Arizona Event Golf Photography

From a session today for a local talent.

Jr is an actor and has done print work as well, his agent called last week as they needed some new images for marketing.

ONE SB800 Off camera (left) on a SC-28 Nikon TTL cord (stretched as far as it could go)

Simple one light setup, flash is camera left from high and the main exposure on the model. The camera exposure is set for the sky in the background.

An on location editorial portrait of a ShalerJump at the Arizona State fair on a Refocus Phoenix outing.

Brian Shaler is a “jumper” and was seen at the state fair a few weeks ago in Phoenix AZ.

After this photo was created I showed the image (on the camera LCD) to a worker at a food booth. She said, “What is he jumping off of” I said, “The ground”…. She was shocked. I guess this is why they call him a “Jumper”

Rumor on the Internet is that Brian Shaler may have a “Jump-off” (or Jump-a-thon) with Kent Nichols of “Ask a Ninja” at PodcampAZ this weekend.

Think –> Parkour + Verical Only + Spectators = JumpaThon Charity event

**Update**
—>There wasn’t enough notice to fully plan out the Charity jump, maybe next year?!

We’ll see if it happens! I think any wagers would go to a charity. This could be fun!
