Stillwood Head Shots

One of my responsibilities at Stillwood was to take a staff photo of every staff member working at the camp. This doesn't sound like a big deal until you realize that there are over two hundred staff members throughout the summer and I had about thirty seconds with each subject. I'd like to think I really understand the art of portrait shooting now, at least as far as head shots go. 

Another project I took on was designing a staff camp sweater. The final product can be seen above.




 These are a few of my favourites. The camp's drive way which runs along the field is lined with huge fir trees. When the light shines through them just before sunset, they create the most gorgeous defuser and backdrop.

Chelsea


This is Chelsea. She's my roommate and art buddy. Her mom requested head shots for grad announcements, so we went out and snapped these. I used my own camera (Nikon 3100) for the shots where she's wearing orange and my work camera (Canon 5D) for the shots that she's wearing purple, both with a 50mm lens. It's not super obvious after editing, but the 5D is just a dream to shoot with. It really makes me dream of an upgrade.
