NOVA Fashion – Fairfax Corner photography

Last Saturday, I was the official photographer for the Northern Virginia Magazine Fashion NoVA show held at Fairfax Corner. At this time, there were 7 collections presented showcasing the latest Fall fashions. It was an especially beautiful day out on the main plaza where the runway was setup. Vendors had booths at the side where the large crowd at the show were treated to samples from P.F. Changs, Uncle Julio’s, two restaurants that have locations at Fairfax Corner.

The Washington Redskins Cheerleaders were also there to take photos with fans!

The fashion show had 7 different collections present from South Moon Under, Undeniable Boutique, D’Milikah, Read Wall, Aerosole’s, Chic Envy, and Belle Mode Intimates. Prior to the show starting, I made some images as the Paul Mitchell School of Tysons Corner worked with the models. Their stylists worked the hair and makeup ready for all the models before the show. It was a lot of action, but the models were ready for the runway, and showed off the designs well! I took a position at the end of the runway. As can be seen, a runway set makes it easy to position yourself for photos as they walked. Here are some of my favorites from each:

I think these show off the designs very nicely! In order to pull off the looks, there was a lot of work put in from different players. Firstly, the designers put the outfist together. Next the hair and makeup stylists worked with the models. Finally, the organizers coordinated the logistics of the show to make this a success. Subsequently, the next show is tomorrow at Pentagon City Mall. Join us there for more!

Snowstorm Time Lapse

With the largest snowstorm in six weeks approaching the area 🙂 I decided to try an intervalometer experiment to make a time lapse film. My cousin introduced me to the concept a few years ago, but this is my first stab at it.

Starting at 9:30AM on Friday February 5, I set my Nikon D200 to take an exposure every 30 seconds while being pointed out my front window. I wanted to capture the falling snow, the traffic outside, and the eventual dig out. Overall, I think it worked pretty well! Although, I wish that I was able to get a better view of how many inches fell, and how high the snow pile was in front of our house after the many sessions of digging out our parking spaces and sidewalks. I hope you enjoy my little project! It helped to stave off the cabin fever.

Did you do any photo or video projects during the snowstorm? Maybe you had a similar experience with weather this winter. If you have any suggestions for me to set up for the next time, please let me know!

Snow Weekend!

Well we prepared for snow as best we could. There were warnings all week, and although we planned to attend the Clover Star Classic in Philadelphia, we decided to not go. Instead we make sure our home would be safe over the weekend. Luckily, the event was postponed. On account of the change, we had a chance for some photo opportunities. Of course we had to also put away the cameras and do some shoveling. Ugh. In any case, here are some photos from the weekend –

I think there’s a car under the snow here somewhere:

My car is definitely under here:

The snow covering surfaces gives the most unique photos from these storms. Although it seems to come down evenly everywhere, the piles show a different story. Of course, I thought about another time lapse, but I did not think of a new perspective from the last time. So, I just stayed in and waited for the storm to subside before getting out the camera.

Similarly to other storms, we had clear skies after the worst was over. It was undeniably far from warm, but the sun made it almost pleasant to be outside. How did you fare through the storms?
