Charleston food and beverage entrepeneurs

Dan + Amelia — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 15:35:09 +0000

We photographed local Charleston entrepreneurs Mike Ray of Normandy Farm Artisan Bakery, David Merritt and Jaime Tenney of Coast Brewery, Nicole Rager of Nicole’s Nutty Goodness, and Hank Weed of Caribrew Cold Press Coffee for an article in the Charleston Scene by Matthew Godbey. Owning your own business is hard work, and it was extremely rewarding to photograph such talented and dedicated individuals. They have all made their dreams their own reality, which takes a lot of courage and possibly a little bit of crazy;). It is really a pleasure living in Charleston where so many small businesses live and thrive. Here’s to local business and local talent!

Righchus

Dan + Amelia — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 21:01:07 +0000

We had the pleasure of photographing Righchus, a local Charleston rap artist for the Charleston Scene magazine. He works with Mark Berry, and they produce some really intriguing work. He is a SUPER nice guy, and really enjoyed listening to Dan’s Peter Tosh and Jimi Hendrix records while we photographed him;). The images ran in color, but we loved them in black + white too. So, here is how they ran, and the monochrome below. Check out the article on local Charleston rap artists too!

Charleston Scene Polaroids

Dan + Amelia — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 17:08:39 +0000

We decided to shoot Polaroids for some of the up and coming people featured in the 2 part series of Charleston Scene magazine’s launch issue. Since part of the magic of the Polaroid is watching the image appear right in your hand, we thought it would fun to watch it in a stop motion video. Thanks to Nick Jenkins and his spectacular music skills we put this little bit together. Hope you enjoy, and you can see the final Polaroid images below…

For those of you interested, we rigged the Polaroid so that we could use our own flash. We taped off most of the Polaroid flash, but left some open so that it could trigger our other 2 larger strobes. We used an alien bee to light the curtain and give it a spotlight look, and then we used our white lightning to light the subject. We also pulled out our Jimi Hendrix poster that is bigger than life size to use as a large fill card…thank goodness for Jimi;) Hope you all enjoy, and can’t wait to see what else Charleston Scene has in store for the Lowcountry!

Debut of Charleston Scene magazine

Dan + Amelia — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:15:07 +0000

We were SO excited to get our newspaper today (and yes, we still have a subscription to the local newspaper) and check out the new Charleston Scene magazine! Marcus Amaker did an outstanding job, along with all the other contributors to the premiere edition. The cover story is part 1 of 2, so here are some of the “Locals We Love” from part 1. Be on the lookout for some more photos from part 2 and some Polaroid fun:) And if you read this before 7:30pm tonight head over to Fish restaurant for the launch party.
