Why I sometimes make my clients freeze : )
By admin Portrait Photography March 18, 2014
Heashots Men New York

Portraits and headshots come in one big clump for me. One needs the other. And I love them both. The reason they are so much fun for me is that, unlike wedding photography (which I also obviously love) portraits come with more control for me in terms of time, lighting conditions, etc. David needed some …

Who said I can’t shoot men! Headshots for Entrepreneurs.

Small Business Photography Tel Aviv Israel

Recently, in addition to weddings, I’ve been getting a LOT of requests for small and medium business headshots (and space shots). Erez Landau is the CEO and founder of Erez Israel, a company that provides meaningful tours in Israel and lectures all around the world. The shoot took place in Neveh Zedek, an artsy neighborhood …

I’m a stylist : ) Headshots for business and fun (Tel Aviv, Israel)

Portraits in Tel Aviv Israel

It evolved. At first I would email people just a few styling guidelines before the shoot. You know – wear dark colors, blow dry your hair, etc. Then it started changing. Perhaps the biggest contribution was from my friend Maria who started her own full service style agency, Stilista – Boston. Through chatting with her …

Cold Winter Days (A portrait shoot in Cape Cod)
By admin Editorial My own stuff... Portrait Photography August 24, 2013

Sometimes my eye catches something and then next thing you know I have a friend forced into something (meaning a photoshoot) they didn’t intend on being in. Luckily, I have very willing friends who approach my photography with enthusiasm and don’t mind a large camera stuck in their faces. I’m actually not sure this was …

A ‘Just Because’ Shoot – Fashion Meets Indian Roots (Prospect Park, New York)
By admin Fashion Portrait Photography August 19, 2013

Ratika originally wanted me to do a photoshoot of her and her husband… just a love shoot. However, because of conflicting schedules, she then decided to do a shoot of just her. Here is Ratika standing in what looks to be wilderness but is actually Prospect Park. Fixing her dress. I love sneaky photojournalistic shots …

Sara Pinsky is a licensed clinical social worker/psychotherapist (her profile on Psychology Today) working in Manhattan (New York, NY). Sara also happens to be a good friend of mine. She is warm, nurturing, accepting, and smart – the perfect recipe for a great therapist. And she cares! I was excited when she asked me to …

Headshots for a company!
By admin Corporate & Small Businesses Portrait Photography November 8, 2012

I totally enjoy shooting anything people-related, which is lucky, because people are the “things” I shoot. Here are some corporate headshots I did for a Manhattan-based company just last month. I REALLY like working in a fast-paced, slightly anxiety-provoking environment. To me, it’s the chaotic shoots that are the most challenging and rewarding. When you …

A 50s themed shoot in black and white
By admin Children Photography Editorial Family Fashion Portrait Photography July 17, 2012

This shoot was styled and made possible (not to mention much easier) by Stilista Boston. As soon as I pitched the idea to my friend Maria she ran with it… like very fast. Cloth diapers and clothes pins were bought, in addition to bright red lipstick (which I realize doesn’t show on B&W images). Slips …

Just a few pretty pics J
By admin Portrait Photography Technical and How-To February 22, 2012

This mini photoshoot was based mainly around testing the expodisc that I recently acquired. Your can see me shooting in the image on the right (yes I know you can see me). Loving the negative soace in this photo. The expodisc performed pretty well, given the mixture of natural and incandescent light, with a little …

My obsession with the Canon fisheye and the 85mm lenses
By admin Children Photography My own stuff... Portrait Photography Technical and How-To January 20, 2012

Honestly I’m not sure what photographer wouldn’t be obsessed with the 85mm L series lense. It has a super sharp focus on the subject and melts the background into butter (assuming your aperture is wide open, of course). The 85mm lense is amazing for portraits because you are still far enough from the subject for …

Emma, the American bulldog next door
By admin My own stuff... Portrait Photography December 26, 2011

Dogs are definitely one of my passions. Not dogs that are dainty and pretty (although those will pass as well), but more dogs who are clumsy, maybe have a hard time keeping their tongues in their mouths, who will step on you (by accident and out of love) and crush your foot with their massive …

Fashion Photography, Subdued
By admin Fashion Portrait Photography August 31, 2011

Whether shooting fashion, weddings, or portraits, the most important is that the facial expression and body positioning of the subject are convincing. In other words, the goal is to get the model to appear as close as possible to how they would in real life. This is why the first 30 minutes of the shoot …
