This Grammy winning studio is filled with such a fun staff and awesome vintage equipment. The team was cracking jokes at each other the whole day and a blast to shoot. If you need to record an album or need to produce some music for a film you're working on, look no further. BIAS Studio in Springfield where you need to go.
This engagement session set a lot of records for me, the highest elevation, lowest elevation, longest shooting time, furthest distance traveled for an e-session, and also the most fun I've ever had for an engagement session! Brandon and Ashley wanted to have their session at Skyline Drive, which I figured would offer only a limited variety of photos, so I looked at Google Maps and saw that Luray Caverns was close by, so I suggested we hit a couple locations in the area. We were driving along and spotted a run down theme park (with gift shop) called "Dinosaur Land" and couldn't resist stopping by. We navigated the complex garden maze and trekked the mile hike to the bottom of Luray Caverns and back again (remind to never ever decide to haul a backpack full of speedlites on a mile hike underground without an assistant again)! I love these kinds of engagement sessions where a couple can get really comfortable and just be themselves! Can't wait for their wedding next summer!
Moshe Zusman and I shot such unique wedding down in the beautiful Austin Texas. I've only been to Austin twice now (both for weddings, and surprisingly both were at the Barton Creek Resort). Kate and Steve's family threw an amazing pre-wedding party the night before where Steve got up on stage and jammed with the band for a bit before singing to his soon-to-be bride with his groomsmen as his vocal backup. The day of the wedding, we couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather as Moshe and I hit up a couple hot spots in Austin to get some great images of the bridal party before we all headed to One World Theater, which was probably the most stunning wedding venue I've ever had the privilege to shoot at. Everything about this wedding was so special and unique, from the great details of the wedding decorations to Kate's sparkling smile as she walked down the aisle to the Mardis Gras themed reception! It was a blast from start to finish!
