Salem fashion photographer

Wow, life is super busy these days!

First off, I got an iPhone. I know, I was going to wait for V2, but this had a lot going for it in my eyes. The real internet is a big plus, not to mention the access to email anytime. Big shout out to the editor of Lens Work who has a really good podcast. I need to take some of that advice to heart and shoot what I want more - it always turns out better when I do.

That said, I have a very large shoot Sunday with 18 women who are doing a pin-up modeling class at Cherry Redd, the clothing store in my studio building. Should be a lot of fun. The class is booked, so email me if you want in for the next one and I will hook you up with the people running the show. The class ends with a second day photo session of 20-30 minutes with yours truly.

Anyway, I am also working on getting a new web site to split my portraiture and commercial work. Some commercial jobs look down on people who shoot portraits as do some in the fine art world, so I will break up my various efforts into little mini-brands if you will.

I haven't updated my portfolio for a bit nor posted at flickr despite being so busy shooting. I will try to post some today, but I also need to edit some files from a shoot yesterday and last week, which is what I am doing this afternoon.

On an even further non-photo related note, a girl that I dated a little in college emailed me through myspace (I don't visit it very often, so I responded a month late). It was wierd to read that we dated 12 years ago. Holy crap that makes me feel ancient. Anyway, she is still in the motherland of Las Vegas, so maybe I will stop by and say hi next time I am there.

Drop me a line if you stumble across this and we knew each other back in the day,

Adam

Salem modeling

There is some kind of modeling event going on in early March that I have been asked to photograph. I am not sure about the details, but we will see what happens there. The event is Mar. 8-9, with some auditions prior to that.

Likewise, Cherry Redd, a clothing store in my studio building, has asked me to shoot some pin up fashion shots for a pin up modeling class. I think those are Sunday, Mar. 2.
