Charleston Scene Polaroids

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…

How it looked in the magazine

Caleigh Bird Goold . painter

Austin Nelson . videographer

Diana Deaver . photographer

Josef Kirk Myers . visual stimulator . Michael Jackson fanatic

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

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.

Survivors Celebration photo booth

This past Sunday we had the privilege of photographing the The Lowcountry Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® Survivors Celebration for the Lowcountry breast cancer survivors.  It is such a wonderful event, and great way to honor and celebrate life!  We tried something new this year, and brought along our photo booth…we’re pretty sure it was a hit and hopefully we’ll be taking it back again next year:)  We’ll post more photos from the event soon, but for now here are couple from the booth…

Dance photo ideas…

I’m working on an essay on dance and how it affects our mood, senses and belief systems. I’m still in the beginning stages so not too specific yet, but if you know of any unique dance events or happenings in the region please let me know:)

Pink in the Rink

This past  Saturday the South Carolina Stingrays partnered with the The Lowcountry Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® to fight breast cancer in the Lowcountry.   They hosted the 4th annual Pink in the Rink.  The ice was pink, the hockey sticks were pink, even the jersey’s were pink!  Fun was had by all, and it was a full house with a  record crowd of 6,801.  Here a couple of photos, to see more visit the Komen Lowcountry gallery collection HERE :)
