Todd

Todd
Todd is looking to break into the modeling profession and he came to me for a 'kick start' to his portfolio. Right off the bat, I realized that Todd's style was very 'rock n roll'. So, I was able to do some dramatic lighting to create that type of look in his photos. Here are a few of my favorites from our session ...
Love this one ...
Great connection with the camera in this next one ...
Ummmm. Is that a great jacket or what???
Great pose and a nice simple composition ... works well.
Now most people will tell you that the only time they bring out a fan in a photo session is to 'blow someone's hair' ... well, you can see why this wouldn't work here. SO, I decided to put a different spin on the 'fan shot' and blow Todd's shirt ... thrilled with the result!
a little different angle ...
great 'old school' wristband ...
Todd, thank you for coming to me. I truly enjoyed working with you. Keep me posted on what agency you decide to sign with.

I love the lighting in most of the shots! It is "very sculpting" and appropriate for the model.

You outdid yourself yet again.
