Before this, I had never really done a shoot in the snow.
I wanted to create something dramatic and dreamy.
Jill was beyond amazing to work with.
These are a few I shot with my Polaroid camera using The Impossible Project's Color Shade film for the first time. I love how creepy cool they turned out.
I am using the down time I have from weddings to work on a few personal projects that have been stirring around in my head. As an artist I feel it is very important to find a nice balance between the work I get commissioned to do and work I do for myself. I love when I get the chance to push myself creatively and to experiment, this past weekend that is exactly what I did. I literally have a photography high right now. I will have full posts soon.
Dave called her a Nordic Ice Queen. I think that is the perfect name for these images. My first real snow shoot. 
Mason is a very cool artist/gallery owner. I had the pleasure of spending a fantastic afternoon with him yesterday at his home/gallery. It was wicked cool!
Jen Pritchard and I have been working like mad to get the details together for love+bash. We officially booked the venue Friday. We are very excited to share all of the details at love+bash.com later this week!

This house is an enigma to me. Apparently, it was abandoned years ago. It is as if the family just vanished, leaving behind all of their belongings. There is really great furniture inside and a few vehicles on the property. It does not look like it was a fire. I tried looking up the address to find out what happened and nothing came up. So strange. The light was beautiful. I hope I can go back when it warms up.
Thanks to Crystal for being my amazing model.
A couple of weeks ago I went on a photo field trip with my friend, Lauren and a few other photographers. We went to this awesome junkyard that was busting at the seams with old motorcycles and cars. The owner, Skip was super cool. I have been dying to do an engagement session at a junkyard. Who wants to have a little fun with me?
Yes, I know I have posted this picture of Arnold's before. I just felt it was very fitting for this week's iPhone post because it is where I am having a show Saturday night at 7. I am part of a really fun photography group that has group shows once a month. This month it is my turn and I would love for you to come! It is always a great time, lots of drinking and mingling, and there will be tons of great art for sale. For those of you that are not familiar with Arnold's, it is Cincinnati's oldest tavern. When I was in college we used to go there to unwind after every test, it was always a wonderful, laid back atmosphere, and the food is outstanding. Check out their website here.
I hope to see you there!!
*The address is 210 East 8th Street Cincinnati, Oh. There is plenty of parking across the street at the public lot. The show will be upstairs.
