jennifer tress: headshots!

hello chinatown!

tress-2776

jennifer tress is fabulous.

and while there are many other words that describe jen – funny, sassy, talented, expressive, gorgeous, smart – the first word that comes to mind is always fabulous. i was so thrilled when she asked me to do a session for her to commemorate the work of her first book. she forwarded me the first few chapters and i *love* it – funny, poignant memoirs that made me laugh out loud and totally fall in love with her. as a result, our session was nothing short of absolutely fabulous and incredibly fun. we hit the streets of chinatown for a spontaneous lifestyle-type headshot session and got the most amazing images! and since jen is *fabulous* the shots are so fun, so full of her expressive personality, and even include a few strangers who wanted some camera time with this soon to be *very famous* author. stay tuned for info on her forthcoming collection of short stories! enjoy!

snow falling on the district.

a snow day in chinatown.

blondephoto-9539a

the district succumbed to stillness today under a few inches of snowfall. chinatown – or “times square” as we lovingly refer to it – was quieter than i’ve ever seen it this afternoon. honestly, it was surreal, and kind of nice. hello snowy march!

the auto show.

shiny, pretty things.

i wanted to share some of the funky detail shots from the dc auto show last weekend…was on a mission to capture some killer shots for canton car wash – slated to open this spring in baltimore city! it’s going to be an amazing car wash complete with a coffee shop and wi-fi! check them out on facebook and be a fan! three very cool baltimore guys are behind this venture, one of which happens to be my boyfriend!

originally i was envisioning all b+w photos, but the color was absolutely amazing – thanks to my sweet 5D MKII and its unreal ISO expansion of 25,600 for some of these shots! enjoy!
