This shoot was done smack in the middle of summer in July in Charlotte, North Carolina. That means it was hot and humid, and generally pretty gross out. We shot from around 8-10am. Most people steer away from summer sessions because of the heat, but you can’t tell we felt like we were in a […]

Y’all my busy senior spring season was seriously delayed this year because of Corona. I shot way farther out into the season than I ever normally would.

An urban downtown area is the ideal photo location for a guy.  The NODA neighborhood of Charlotte was the perfect place for these graduation pictures. Colorful backdrops, textures, and posing aids, it makes a session a cinch. Plus, you get a versatile gallery for the client.  It also makes the session itself fun and exciting. […]
