Rainbow Squares With Anni Bishop
by Jeff Cross
Rainbow Squares, and I’m not talking about Kellogg’s Rice Krispies. I’m talking about the pattern on Anni’s dress in this set. This was our second set of the day, the first can be seen here, and this set was poppin’!
I’ve worked with Anni twice now and she is never less than stellar in working poses for for the camera. She is never still. She’s always moving and requires very little direction. But when direction is given, Anni’s right there and on the spot like it’s nothing.
Enjoy these photos and be on the lookout for another post in the near future with 1-2 more sets of photos. Comments are always welcomed and appreciated!
Until next time…
Fly Away With Anni Bishop
by Jeff Cross
Yesterday, I had the opportunity to shoot with Anni Bishop, a young lady I had previously worked with for Appeal Magazine. I shot Anni on one of my seamless backgrounds that I haven’t had the opportunity to use yet. I don’t normally shoot in a “studio” environment as I prefer to shoot on location, out in the field, or whatever you want to call “outdoors and/or not against a backdrop“. I like creating a scene or image rather than just a photo of an individual on a plain backdrop.
But, yesterday may have changed my mind, if only a little bit. Maybe “changed my mind” isn’t the correct way to phrase it, but it has at least given me the confidence to at least shoot in a studio environment if the need arises. I am very happy with my results from shooting on the seamless, as well as the performance by Anni throughout the shoot.
First Official “BTS” Video
by Jeff Cross
A week or so ago I had the opportunity to work with model Heather Tutolo Barnette. We were shooting one of my concepts for a cover image that will appear on a future issue of Appeal Texarkana Magazine in 2010. During this shoot, my trusty assistant, Chris, allowed me to burden his wife with the task of recording “Behind The Scenes” (BTS) video footage.
As my videography skills aren’t what they should be, or existent in any shape, form or fashion, it took me a whole weekend to finally come up with the video you see above. While my skills in video aren’t much, I am very happy with the way this video turned out and want to share it with the world.
