It’s Holly

My dear friend and amazing poet Jerrica Escoto wanted some new headshots and pictures, so we headed over to Mission Trails and took some shots. I’m in love with the rocking chair. This is also my first time using my new 580exII speedlite out in the wild! I can’t wait to use it more.

sometimes we have photo shoots for work. and sometimes, i take a few shots, too.

Not only is she gorgeous, she’s a ridiculously talented singer/songwriter, and I had the privilege of spending Sunday afternoon with her… taking her pictures, singing to The Gossip and watching Glee. That’s how we roll.

On Saturday I had the privilege of shooting 16 mo old Tyler – the son of my friend Aja. This was also my first official “job” as a photographer, although calling it a job seems wrong, since it was more fun for me than anything. Either way, take a look at a few of my favorites. I heart this kid!

isn't this just what little boys do?

What I learned this weekend:
1. kids are hard to keep up with. they run – a lot.
2. i’m a natural lighting kinda girl. the studio stuff is going to take much more practice.
3. editing pictures never gets old.

It was Thanksgiving / Haejin’s 18th birthday party where I was shown the original picture:

That was the inspiration for the recreation:

How time flies.

another studio4 guinea pig. thanks, amari. see more @ see.itsholly.com.

We were off to have a night of drunken debauchery. No night of drunken debauchery for Stephanie’s birthday is complete without pre-drinks and pictures at studio4. Happy birthday, Steph!

he hearts me.
