Free Themed Photoshoot

First, I’d like to extend a big thank you to those that have participated in the free sessions I’ve been offering! Your participation is much appreciated!

If you didn’t get a chance to participate, you’re in luck…I’m still looking for a few participants for a themed photoshoot:

The theme for this photoshoot is “Going Through the Motions”. Here’s what I need:

  • 4-8 young adults

The aim for this photoshoot is to tell a story. Starting with the depression and sadness of just “going through the motions” moving to perseverance and preservation, on to a revelation or epiphany, and finally to success, joy, zeal, and confidence in “giving all you’ve got” to something. The final result may be included in a PowerPoint presentation with an initial audience of 700+ with potential viewing audiences numbering in the thousands.

I’ll be taking appointments for this session up until October 7, 2011. Please contact me if you are interested!

September 11, 2011

It’s hard to imagine that it’s already been 10 years since the tragic events in New York.

Like me, you probably remember where you were and what you were doing.

Take a moment to remember those that perished in that atrocious display of hate.

Also, take a moment to remember the firefighters, policeman, and those serving in the military that stepped in to assist and restore.

Hello all!

I have new and exciting opportunities available! Active opportunities are black, while inactive opportunities are grey.

I am currently looking for two group of individuals willing to participate in free themed photoshoots.

The first themed photoshoot is “Holiday”. Here’s what I need:

  • Adult in Santa costume
  • Adult in Scarecrow or Ghost costume
  • Adult in Father Time (with scythe) costume
  • Child in Easter Bunny costume
  • Child in Cupid costume

The aim for this photoshoot is to create an image of the various figures around a boiling caldron or fire. Although masked, body language should suggest surprise and even embarrassment that all of these characters are meeting at the same time! The final result may be published on the cover of a Christian magazine. If you would be willing to help, please contact me immediately!

The second themed photoshoot is “Going through the Motions”. Here’s what I need:

  • A group (8-10) of young adults

The aim for this photoshoot is to tell a story. Starting with the depression and sadness of just getting by, moving toward perseverance and preservation, on to a revelation or epiphany, and finally to success, joy, zeal, and confidence in “giving all you’ve got” to something. The final result may be included in a PowerPoint presentation with an initial audience of 700+ with potential viewing audiences numbering in the thousands. If you would be willing to help, please contact me immediately!

Thank you all for your interest in WSP! I hope to be hearing from you soon regarding these wonderful opportunities!

James and Denese share a kiss.

I had the opportunity to travel to Medina, OH to photograph James and Denese’s wedding. The location was beautiful and the whole event was great!

Hand in hand, James and Denese leave the gazebo to form the receiving line.

Just moments before I almost fell in a pool, I took this priceless candid. James and Denese ecstatic on their wedding day.

Congratulations to you both!

Guest Photographer – Mike Zale

Today’s Guest Photographer is Mike Zale.

Not long ago, Mike “appeared” as the guest editor of a photo in my “” post. Now, he’s sharing some of his work.

Bridge over Milwaukee River

“Bridge is an abandoned railway which runs over the Milwaukee River near Bayshore Shopping Center.”

Bridge over Milwaukee River

“I can’t seem to take enough photos from enough angles to catch the many looks of the bridge. These are only a few samples of the ones I like…..”

Mike asks, “Readers, which picture do you like better?” Comment with your answer!

Be sure to check out some more of Mike’s work here: 3Cameras. You’ll find a few pieces of my work there, too.
