In this post, I am showing some of my favorites from a Clarence Clottey – Boro shoot in Tysons, Virginia. Since I last met with Clarence, he continues to grow his business in this neighborhood with a lot of development. Although the inside of his office building is modern, and minimal in its decor, adjacent is a beautiful mural next to the Tysons Biergarten. In this case, the color and design makes a nice setting for Clarence’s fashions.

Even though he is the designer, Clarence is really an excellent model! He does spend a lot of time working with his patterns and clothing. When we get together, I always get an update on his travels. For the most part, he is going to Europe to source fabrics, and shops to create his shirts, and suits. On this occasion, we made some portraits of him around the ground floor of his office building. The balcony with the some nice open shade provided that nice even lighting for his clothing. Concurrently, there was this very unique chair that really needed at least a couple of images. Surely these will work for his active Instagram account!

2017 Aeren Waters Fashion

Last year, we collaborated for a 2017 Aeren Waters Fashion shoot for accessory bags. Unlike most fashion designers, Nerea has an untraditional background. For one thing, she is a scientist for her day job! Similarly, her model friends that helped out with this shoot also work in the sciences. With this in mind, I was sure to stay on my toes since I wanted to be efficient with their time.

At this time, Nerea wanted to have nice strong natural light for these photos. Along with the strong colors of her materials, we brought in some nice complimentary colors with the car, building walls, and foliage. Given that this close to the middle of the day, it would have been difficult to use a flash even for balancing the exposure.

After all the ‘real’ photos were done, we took some time keep up some images on social media. As can be seen we had a really great time on this shoot, and I was so happy with the photos. I look forward to the next one!

2017 Clarence Clottey

The Boro – Tysons, Virginia

These photos were from the 2017 Clarence Clottey shoot at his office. Located in the Boro, you can obviously see the explosive development in the area. With this in mind, it was a perfect setting for Clarence’s custom men’s clothing. On this occasion, Clarence wanted to get some individual photos of shirts and ties for his website, then we got some photos of him modeling a suit around his work place.

In general, I am unfamiliar with being daring with my clothing. Certainly Clarence can help businessmen stand out with his bespoke options for suits, shirts, and accessories. Just prior to this shoot, he received a shipment from the factory in Europe where they produce his apparel. If you are looking specifically for a color or coordinate style, Clarence can create a look for you. With this in mind, he had a couple of customers come to his office to pick up recent orders. As a backdrop, his office in the Boro was a showcase of the growing Tysons area as well as the modern office spaces that are coming soon.
