HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

I am honored to have been a part of this amazing campaign for NIGHTMARE HAUNTED HOUSE located in the heart of Myrtle Beach. Scaring tourist and locals alike since 1989, this is the place to visit this Halloween. A special thanks to Chris Walker and the staff over at Collins and Company for letting me head up the photography for this unique project! TRICK OR TREAT!!!

NEXT MODELING AGENCY!

Allison is signed to Next Modeling Agency down in Miami. I have done two shoots with her in the past and last week her mother called me stating that the agency needed some new "Seventeen Magazine" style shots of Allison. We shot 3 outfits in about an hour and a half and had the help of another talented young lady named Taylor Sparks who was working her make-up magic. Here is what we came up with.

Back to my Roots!

    I dug up some old roots this week with a quick little trip to Atlanta to see my friend Justin Pearson. For those of you that may have never heard of Justin let me just tell you he is one of the main reasons I am where I am at today. Justin's band The Locust and record label 31G was the main catalyst for my photography career. I met him in 2001 when The Locust played a small venue in my home town called "The Lazy I." I was just getting into photography and started shooting live bands. After the show I spoke to Justin Briefly, got his address and mailed him prints from the show a few weeks later. Next thing I know I had a P.O. Box full of awesome records and a thank you card. 6-8 Months later I attended the More than Music Fest In OH. The locust and several other amazing bands such as Arab On Radar, Lighting Bolt and Daughters were also on the bill as part of the OOPS tour. I spoke to Justin quite a while that day about life, photography and several other things. To make a long story short.... Justin started using my  photos for his website, postcards and all sorts of other nifty marketing tools for his label. He also got me in touch with their publicist Maria who quickly started getting me published in Alternative Press and Spin..... The rest, as some would say, is history... 

So, here we are... The First photo I took of him in 2001 as the bass player and vocalist for the THE LOCUST and a brand new one I took of him this week with his new band RETOX.

NOSH RESTAURANT

I recently had the pleasure of photographing a wonderful new hidden treasure in the heart of Pawley's Island. Nestled away inside the Hammock Shops, Nosh fills your desire for yummy tapas, a wonderful wine list, delicious apps and decadent desserts.

Victor's Restaurant

I was beyond stoked  when I got a call from my friend over at Kinetic Media Productions a couple of months ago to quote out a 2 day job for one of Florence South Carolina's Premier Restaurants, Victors. I became even more excited after touring the restaurant and meeting the Chef and Owners. I immediately knew this was going to be an amazing project.
