John-Scott Young ~ Musician Portraits

John-Scott is an interesting fellow. He’s guitar talents are undeniable and he’s a very thoughtful song writer, but more than that, he’s intelligent, mature, kind, and generous. I’m very much looking forward to his CD coming out later this year and if you’re not familiar with his kickstarter campaign to launch this CD check it out here. As to the photos, my goal with this shoot was to flex some creative muscle – one location, one room, one light source. This was not the most dynamic room to shoot in. The room wasn’t very large and the ceiling was low, but fortunately there was a window facing west that late afternoon and I tried to make the most of it. Below are just a few of my favorite images from our time together.

Gina & Rich – Cincinnati Engagement Photos

Flew in to Cincinnati for a grand weekend with the lovely Gina & Rich. The weather ended up being brutal cold, in the mid 20′s, so I worked to find an indoor location for these engagement photos and was able to land the amazing Cincinnati Memorial Hall. A huge thank you goes out to them for their kindness and the use of this beautiful space. Had an amazing time working with and getting to know Gina & Rich. After our efforts together at Memorial Hall, we braved a few minuets in the extreme cold to close with a few sunset pictures. My fingers were literally stinging after just 5 min. in the 14˚ wind chill weather. Below are just a few of my favorite images from out time together.
