A few from a recent session with two wonderful young men. These were for fun - the senior portraits will follow this summer.

Great photos CaptnC. you are definitely one of the best. Your website is great. Your work inspires me.

After seeing your work, I took down my photography sign and decided to spend 2013 working and honing my skills.

I have offered my services free for this year to have plenty of work to practice on. I hope to be ready for 2014.

Thanks for your advice, criticism, and for sharing your work.

In earlier posts, you have mentioned some workshops you have done locally. Please send me a PM for any upcoming workshops and i might just take a trip to colorado.

Your lighting is spectacular. You must develop a special rapport with your clients to bring out those wonderful expressions. Beautiful work.

Thanks for that. Yes, I LOVE people photography. While I can admire the work of good landscape photographers or some animal stuff, I really find it crushingly boring and I would hang myself before shooting flowers.

With people, I can figure out the lighting for them, engage with them, take the challenge of getting the best from them, and everyone is different. Oh yeah - flowers don't PAY you to take their pictures. :-)
Unfortunately it does take a few thousand $ in lighting gear to get this look.
