Published in 17:23 Magazine
Published in 17:23 Magazine Issue 4 Vol 23 This photoshoot published in 17:23 Magazine is one of my most favorite nude/bodypaint shoots to date. Not only because it turned out so perfect but because it was a special collaboration. The concept was to have Lizzy painted white and then colour added. We weren't sure exactly what we wanted the coloured parts to look like so I asked my artist wife Sharon to add the colour. While painting with full artistic license, I asked her to make it look like the paint was ivy growing from Lizzy's feet. I couldn't have asked for a better result! I would like to thank 17:23 Magazine for the…

Shooting Swimwear on the Lake
Shooting swimwear with Lizzy I had a fabulous time shooting swimwear photography with Liz on Lake Erie this summer! We took advantage of the available light and captured this amazing set of swimwear images. The tides were low. This allowed us to access many parts of the park that are usually too deep in water for access. We hope you enjoy this peek into the activities of the day!

Winter Portraits – Jessica D’anne
Winter Portraits with Jessica at Windsor's Malden Park. Earlier in the week of January 17, 2019, Jess expressed interest in a winter/snow shoot. I thought about locations and decided to give it a go and use Malden Park, which has a beautiful pine/evergreen forest on the rear side of the park. I met Jess at Malden Park to photograph a series of photos in and around the pine trees, using only the light provided by mother nature. It was a wonderfully overcast day and everyone was very happy with the results. Equipment Used Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art - Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens for Canon EF (321954) Canon EOS 5D…

Branding Photography for Professionals
Branding Photography takes great effort to be successful. On the business side of things, there are meeting for introductions, creative meetings around the boardroom table, meetings with human resources personnel for bookings and the director / owner's office for the big picture. All of these came together for this concept. I met with Tim the owner and an associate who were resolute in what they wanted. I was happily informed that after viewing the work of 12 other local commercial photographers that I was chosen because of my eclectic portfolio of images right here on akeyphoto.com, which spans multiple photography disciplines including some of my previous concept work. We discussed the company's vision and agreed…

Model Photoshoot – Portraits and Boudoir
A model photoshoot in the studio with Jessica A collection of portraits and boudoir images from a recent model photoshoot with Jessica. I worked with coloured backgrounds and gelled strobes in the studio to create different looks. Gels are used to change the colour of the light striking the model, background and/or both. Using gels affect the styling of a photoshoot. Here is a small set of images from this model photoshoot with Jessica. Click on any thumbnail to enter the image viewer for a larger view.
