Bombshells and Bombers- Starring Morgan James

Here's to my awesome model Morgan for scaling barbed wire fences, working in freezing cold weather, and getting into old rusty airplanes... all in an evening gown with not a hair out of place! Now that is talent!

Ms. Liz

Liz Golden spends the majority of her time behind the camera, but she can definitely work it on the other side as well! (You can check out her work at her website).. Sorry had to put a shameless plug in there for my girl! What can I say about Liz? She's beautiful, talented, smart, hilarious and one of the nicest and most compassionate people I've ever met! Basically Liz is the shiz (lol!) Check out her gorgeous self as she steps in front of the camera!

Katie Greene- Winter Wonderland Contest Winner!

Watch out now! Here comes Katie Greene! Katie won the Winter Wonderland contest for J'Adore Studios (an amazing studio I work with) a few weeks ago. We have been planning ever since and could not wait to shoot bright and early yesterday morning. Check out Katie as she flaunts it as a bride, Jessica Rabbit and her sweet and sexy self!

Bret Michaels Concert at Whisky River

When I heard Bret Michaels was coming to perform at Whisky River in Jacksonville, I knew I had to be there! I liked him as the lead singer of Poison as a child, and later in life his comeback reality dating series, "Rock of Love" became my guilty pleasure. When he had his health issues last year I prayed for him and cheered him on along with the rest of the country. He truly is lucky to be alive and I think he recognizes it and puts his all into his concerts. Music was what he was born to do, and he does it very well!

I decided I wanted to not only attend, but also shoot the concert... and a few phone calls and emails later, I was in! I was nervous because concert photography is a whole new field that I was completely inexperienced in and is not the easiest thing to shoot. It calls for huge lenses, very low lighting, and high ISO's. Despite these new challenges, I think I came away with some pretty good shots!

Bret rocked the stage with Poison classics, his own new material, and hits from bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd and Sublime. After the show I was invited on his tour bus and got to meet Bret (omg!) and take some photos of him and the Whisky River girls. He seemed very nice and humble and I was surprised by the fact of how down to earth he was. By the way he interacted with people, I could tell Bret really was in it for the fans... he truly enjoys what he does! But enough rambling from me... here are some of my favorite photos from the night. Thanks Bret and Whisky River for an amazing time and a night I'll never forget!
