Tysons Corner Center

Earlier this month, I photographed the 2017 Prom Fashion show at Tysons Corner Center. To demonstrate the clothing styles for this Spring, the Lord and Taylor location in Tysons supplied the clothing and produced the show. As can be seen, the show was setup outside their location similar to last year’s Spring shows.

2017 Prom Fashion Show

Before the start, I set up one flash about 3/4 of the way down the runway. Seeing that this was again a long carpet for a runway, I needed the flash to go distance. Moreover being underneath an overhang from the floor above, there is not much ambient light in that part of the mall. During the show, I stayed at the end of the runway carpet firing down towards the store branding on the other end. Varying the focal length as they walked towards me allowed for some emphasis on different aspects of the outfits.

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!

Tysons, Virginia

Last month, there were two 2016 Spring Fashion shows at Tysons Corner Center. Similar to previous ones, the Lord and Taylor location supplied the clothing for models. Directly in front of their location, a runway was setup. In addition, they had a branded step and repeat at one end of the carpet.

Again for this show, I set up one large flash at the end of the runway. Seeing that the models walk quickly down the long walkway, I needed to carefully select when to flip the shutter. The recycle time of the flashes was slower by comparison to brighter ambient areas. Although the amount I shot was lower than usual, I had a high number of keepers. Sometimes it helps to be limited by gear!
