For my blog friends....

We have been so blessed this year! Unfortunately with lots of work comes
a waiting list for clients.. Ill just die If I have to tell another friend
that I cant do their photos until mid Jan. next year! (2011) So I just
want to encourage you all to remember to book at least 2-3
months ahead of when you would like your shoot, and for the
holidays..3-4 months ahead:) Thank you all so much for all of your
support:)

The Platinum Photo Booth- Marketing Shoot by Edgy Photographer Ari Photography

I was lucky enough to be hired by Erin Doran, owner of the Platinum Photo Booth Co. http://www.theplatinumphotobooth.com/ to re-vamp her company marketing by shooting and helping to put together this shoot/event. What an event it was!
So many months getting clothing sponsors, flowers, finding the location (One of my secret spots that apparently and unfortuntley some druggies seem to know about) figuring out hair and makeup stylists et. it all came together in this shoot and I think it came together well!
Thank you to all of our sponsors and especially to Erin for putting such faith in me, I love it when my clients give me the freedom to get creative and trust me completley:)

Publication for Next Release of Society International Magazine

I have been lucky enough to be asked again by the wonderful Society International Magazine to create a page for their next issue. You would never guess with how upper class their magazine is that they would be so kind and yet still professional! I am blown away with the quality of their magazine and am honored to be a part of it once again. Below is the page that will be printed in the next issue.

Erin Doran: Rock the Frock Photography aka Trash the Dress photography

Wednesday I had the privilege to shoot the fabulous Erin Doran's "Trash the Dress" or "Rock the Frock" photos. I scouted out this location of bamboo caves a few days before the shoot in order to make it extra special for her, what a beautiful location! We had such a good time together as well as with her husband George Gonzalez who came along as my wing man (and to see how I work). He had great "light bending" skills:) At one point George was so invested in the shoot that he nearly biffed it into the river!
