MLB All Star Game – Tysons Corner Center

George Washington welcomes you to Tysons Corner Center

Tysons, Virginia

Last week I went out to the Plaza at Tysons Corner Center. On Tuesday the MLB All Star Game was broadcast on a large screen. On this occasion the sports talk radio station 106.7 The Fan was there to give away prizes for the Washington Nationals. Danny Rouhier emceed some of the games, and running president George Washington came to say hello!

Prior to this week, there was a concert stage setup right where the large TV screen was installed. Rachel Platten sang for the crowd, and this night she was now singing the National Anthem at the All Star Game! Above all, George Washington was the star of this event. Undeniably being the tallest person in the room helps to garner attention!

Luckily, the weather in Tysons was just as good as San Diego where the game was played!

Peloton – Tysons Corner Center

Tysons, Virginia

Being that I am a regular photographer at Tysons Corner Center, they referred me to Peloton. Given that their location in the mall was gaining popularity with the high-tech product, they needed some updated images for their website. Compared to other stores I have photographed, this was a minimalist look throughout.

Having a clean store in general, is a goal for any website images. On the whole, this was not a problem as this store was camera ready early in the day! The only suggestion I had was to turn on the television. In fact, this is something I do for any interior photos shoot. Having a black square hanging on a wall does not add to photo. Even if the screen just has a simple logo, it add purpose to its placement.

Afterwards, there was a good amount of post processing needed for these images. To begin with, I had no idea that there were so many plugs in this store! Whenever you walk through a place in real life, these little details seem to disappear by default. However in still photos that can be examined in detail, it is better to take them out. Also, please know that there are no ‘wireless’ Peloton bikes. They still need to be plugged in!

Speed of Life – Model Shoot

Ashburn, Virginia

In January, I photographed a project with Kyle McKay from MXK Productions. Mehr and Kyle had a styled shoot based around the song, Speed of Life by David Bowie. In light of his recent death, the shoot was styled with inspiration from his song. Being that I was not available to go to the studio with the production, I did a behind-the-scenes look at them getting ready. However, I was able to setup a small headshot lighting setup to get a quick preview for what was to come later.

Mehr Bano was the primary make up artist that worked on the production. Since there were so many models that had to be done before leaving for the studio, there was a tight schedule to finish. In that case, I photographed as much of the action as it happened. The hair styling, makeup, henna, clothing – there was a lot going on in particular after the basics were done.

Whenever a model was ready for the camera, I brought them to a mobile lighting setup that I brought with me. With the limited space, it was one light only. With a black background, I love how these turned out. This shoot was produced in the hope that they would be published. Best of luck to everyone that helped to make it happen!
