Cheesy? Yes.
Why do we flirt? How? I heard this episode from the Stuff You Should Know podcast on How Flirting Works and I thought it was pretty interesting.
They actually have quite a few awesome podcasts on interesting topics…and since I’m quite a curious fellow, I really enjoy listening to the random facts.

Here’s a lighting tip…not really anything exciting, but it’s something I use all the time as part of my “standard” lighting scenario. Here are some of the images I mention… Samantha… Miah in the jungle… And a couple other examples of rim/edge light… Emily in her Christmas outfit. I also have been known to call [...]

And finally…one of Glenn-Marie outside…

The hour is near…Santa is just about here, so I thought I’d write a quick little note and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. I’m fortunate enough to have a great family whom I’m spending the day with…so that will be good times. :) Yesterday, I got to spend the afternoon with Emily…and we had [...]

Yesterday, I got to spend the afternoon with Emily…and we had fun getting some totally foxy Christmas shots and then some. I will leave you with these…
And these…which are not Christmas-themed…but they are pretty cool anyway. :)

I had a reader comment on a blog post the other day about sharing more than just the pictures I take…
I never thought about sharing the technical stuff about shoots because I figured that I just am not that good. I figured the stuff I do is sort of elementary. However, that being said, I guess there is something to be said for what I can share…I like to learn something new whenever I pull my camera out…so I thought why not share the stuff I’m learning? Maybe someone else can learn something new too? We are all trying to be better artists, so I thought that in that regard, I would start talking about the stuff I’m learning.
So to change things up, I thought I’d do a podcast on it…this is the first episode…hopefully of many…where I talk about how I shoot and what I’ve learned. This episode talks about Mixing Light, artificial and natural, in order to achieve a very natural, bright, commercial look.
For visuals, you may reference the post titled “SoCo” about my shoot with Arika, the southern belle from Tennessee.
But here are the photos I talk about in the podcast:
Enjoy!

I’ve had the biggest crush on Jennifer Aniston…since the beginning of time. :) This just solidifies it. Check her out in this month’s GQ.

I love this new promo USA has out for the new episodes of Monk that are supposed to start in January. It’s a spoof on the 80s show Magnum, p.i. Monk is no Tom Selleck…but he gets the job done.

Wow, I’m impressed Aaron! I never expected a podcast in response to my comment. Anyway, like I’ve said before, I love your work and I would love to learn your style. It’s good that your willing to share. In my day-job I work as a internet marketer and I’ve had quite a lot of success with it in the local market (Norway). I don’t think I’m that much better than many of the other marketers in Norway, but I do think one of the reasons for me having more clients than I can handle is because I share. Many of my readers become clients, contact me when they have to much work or just need a hand with something and people stumble upon my stuff when their in the search for someone to run their campaigns. I think it’s a good think to share and I’m sure it won’t take anyone out of business!
Anyway, back to your podcast. It’s cool to hear to talk about your settings and how you did the whole thing. I’m still a bit curious about the post production work. How much of it is photoshoped? :) Good work and don’t hesitate to share what you learn!
Aaron, you are hittig full stride. This was one of single greatest posts you’ve made in a long time. Top notch.
Great post Aaron! Very informative…
Now I’m just waiting for a “Gear List” post… mua ha ha… let’s see it!
