Project 365....day 156

Day 156 was a true artistic experience. I had the honor of helping my friend Ms. Sarah Roberts of the Someday Studio in Johnstown NY set up for her art show, and photograph the work. It is set to premier on Friday night! Here are a couple of sneak peeks...

{The Artist} Part I

Last Thursday I was fortunate enough to get to collaborate with my friend Ms. Roberts. She is an amazingly talented artist who's gearing up for a show in early June at the Tiffany Smith Gallery in Johnstown, NY. We had a great time catching up over coffee before heading off to her studio, where I got to see the magic in-progress! Here are the perfect bits from that shoot! (the Outdoor Portrait Session soon to come!)
Ladies and Gentlemen; the Amazing, talented, and all around super-cool chick; Ms. Sarah Roberts!

For her 'truth' series, Ms. Roberts asked for honest confessions that were offered by patrons from her previous shows...


My favorite piece from her 'the truth' series


The fabulous Ms. Roberts, hard at work!


A candid portrait of Ms. Roberts as she steps back to study her work.


A profile portrait of the artist at work.


One of my favorite captures; the paint brushes in her hair are perfect!


By this point, I like to think she forgot about the camera and was totally lost in the creation.

Project 365....day 105

Last Thursday brought me the opportunity to shoot a wonderful old friend, and a fantastically talented artist; Ms. Sarah Roberts. She's preparing for a show in June, and I was lucky to get to capture not only her as she worked, but her pieces in a natural, mostly-candid environment.

As I said only moments ago in my last post, I'm horribly behind with these blog posts...I blame it on mommy brain. Somehow, after I managed to edit and get these all ready, I got them on a disk (because I have a whole separate computer for editing), and got them up on my facebook. Instead of blogging the days like I should, instead I said something along the lines of 'eh...I'll get them up tomorrow...', but alas, tomorrow came, and I erased the disk without thinking about it, so when I went to post these pictures from day 105 I found myself unable to do so w/o the 104th day of my 365 project. Finally, I got my act together, and am getting these pictures up for everyone's enjoyment.

Some bits and pieces laying around the fabulous Ms. Robert's studio!


My very favorite piece from Ms. Robert's upcoming show; "The truth will set you free."

Project 365....day 48

Today was a VERY special day for me! My friends Jim and Shawna are expecting a new baby in early April, and today was our maternity shoot! I have known Jim since the beginning of time, and Shawn since mid-high school, so it was a real treat to photograph such wonderful old friends. While I was there, Jimmer showed me some AMAZING paintings done by a guest at his work...I hope you enjoy them as much as I do,and remember...
"The dude abides..."
