We Have Liftoff!

I love creative projects and working with creative people!

As you may know, we specialize in executive portraits.  This client, The Lift Factor, is a marketing company in nearby Essex, Connecticut who is a creative force in the marketing industry.   They are a new company formed from a larger marketing company that specializes in 3-dimensional mailings pieces... really neat stuff.

We knew we would be creating black and white images in a square format.  I wanted to capture the essence of each individual in the team but also show their role in the company.   Here are a few of my favorite portraits from the session.

To see the rest, go the http://theliftfactor.com/ and click on "Who We Are" on the top of the page to see who the "heavy lifters" are and the cool portraits we helped create.

See if you can identify the following just by looking at the portraits below:

Head Over Heels for the GTC

MJW120405-09453782_GymnasticsTCCom_CO
 
Our studio has been located only steps away from Simsbury's Gymnastics Training Center for about two and half years now and we are finally going to get to work with them and the amazing children that train there.
 
Next month we will be photographing the youngest of the GTC's class members and we can't wait.  Here's a sneak preview of what we plan to do.  Check out this little girl and how closely she matches the frog on the wall!

And our last chapter from this year's Daffodiil Event, Azul & Soleil.  These two beautiful girls with beautiful names (Spanish and French for "Blue" and "Sun", respectively) arrived perfectly dressed and styled.  And it's now wonder, since their mom, Monica is a professional stylist and the magic behind MoniKey.  Check out her website here and enjoy the photos of her beautiful spring models.

MJW120403-15433858_DaffodilEvent_CO

Meet Keeley, our very talented and photogenic new model from our Litchfield Daffodil Event.

Keeley just loves the camera and the camera loves her.  These images really capture her and the essence of the day:  the blue sky, the green fields dotted with yellow blossoms.  I can't wait for my next session with Keeley!

Enjoy these few favorites.

MJW120403-14111586_DaffodilEvent_CO

Meet Cheyenne!  What a talented little model!

We met Cheyenne and her mom at the Big Y Kid's Fair back in February.  They traveled all the way from New Haven for this special studio event and we are so glad they did.  She looked so cute in that white hat and beautiful white dress.  Enjoy these images of Spring.
