Introducing Ms. Irons
Another friend of mine who wanted to shoot (in general) for a long time. I got the call last week, and the shoot was slated for today….last day of 2009. Told her she had to make it count!! She had a couple of outfits, and her makeup was done by one of the homies from BKBOYEEZ (what up Fabid!). He put in work on the makeup…damn near flawless…wow!
Here’s one of the photos Ms. Irons immediately wanted to post on her Facebook page as a default pic. I think it’s pretty dope! She definitely nailed several shots. More to come this weekend. Happy New Year all!!
Introducing MissKPey
So MissKPey and I have been trying to shoot for a VERY VERY long time. We were introduced some time ago by my friend C. James, but a shoot never happened. So today was the day. And more importantly, it was a special day….MissKPey’s birthday! So Happy Birthday (again)!!
Pressed for time, we quickly knocked out 3 looks…for a first timer, she was pretty good and has some KING Magazine-like photos to show for it. Shout out to Jennifer of Pink Eye Beauty on the makeup…you passed your interview
. I’ll definitely be working with them again, fellow businessmen are always looking for models and makeup artists, and two connects were made today!
okay fellas…pick ya jaw up now! Lol.
A Sunday Afternoon in Midtown, NYC
So while waiting to meet up with my pretty lady friend from out of town
for a little food and a little catching up, I took a couple of photos with the point & shoot. I almost brought out the SLR, but at the last minute, changed my mind.
A few more after the jump (when she arrives at the rendezvous)!! (more…)
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
I’m a little late, but Merry Christmas to all. Hope that everyone enjoyed their Christmas! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my site. Your visits and support near and far are greatly appreciated. Bigger things to come in 2010! Have a safe & prosperous new year!!
Blackberry Down?
Seems to be a problem with Blackberry devices today. BBM (Blackberry Messenger) isn’t working for folks and I think they’re losing their minds from device withdrawal. It’s crazy!
Sorry folks, I’ve had an iPhone since July, and my Blackberry (for work), sits quietly on my desk. I’M GOOD!
NYC Snow: First Winter Stom
It snowed A LOT last night, it was still coming down at 1:00am ET. It looks like 3-6 inches, but I’ll find out later when I step out!
Happy 5th Birthday TJ!
The young homie is now age 5! My how times flies! I took photos of him and his parents @boomn @classi_kira back in 2007 (when he was 3, duh!), and it just amazes me that you can blink and two years will fly by. I have a 3-yr old daughter, who will be 4 in March, and I catch myself in disbelief and thinking wow, I was just holding her; etc.
HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY!!
The Day Job – The Holiday Party
Yesterday, the day j.o.b. held our Holiday Party @ Quo (West 28th Street, New York City). Lots of staff came out and had a good time. Decent food & music, top shelf liquor, and Beatles Rockband! I didn’t play though.
The picture below was taken by me with my Canon point & shoot. Saw the shot, timed the lighting pattern, and took the shot!!
All and all, everyone had a good time!!

A Note From The Newlyweds…
THIS JUST IN!
“We looked at the pictures and they are awesome! Your eye, creativity and attention speak clearly through the images. Your timing is perfect and you have captured some very special moments that can never be re-created. We thank you so much Mike.”
- Ryder & Natalia Laimit
12.13.2009 you can find me…
…in Midwood, Brooklyn shooting some family portraits at a friends residence! I can’t even recall the last time I shot a family portrait, but…I would consider this one as being the most recent (and largest).
Some Visuals from Ryder & Natalia’s Wedding Day
So I pretty much wrapped up editing late last night, and have sent the newlyweds a link for their viewing pleasure. Here are a few black & white, and color shots. I can definitely see myself getting into this, but I know I have A LOT to learn!
A few more frames after the jump…
The New Jersey Nets WIN!
Bringing their record to 1-19! It definitely was a good and very close game!

12.5.2009 you can find me…
…at Chelsea Piers, 300 NY to cover a kiddie Birthday party for one of the StrugglesCorp member’s son, Jamaal. I think he’s a big kid now, sadly I can’t remember how old he’s going to be…lol, but I’ll find out tomorrow! (I’m guess 5 or 6, 7 might be pushing it).
12.4.2009 you can find me…
…at the Izod Center tonight for the Nets vs. Bobcats game. Even though the fellas and I have nosebleed seats, the tix were given to me at no cost, and I WILL have my camera! Can’t beat that. Hopefully our presence will give them their first win of the NBA season because they suck at 0-18. The worst record in NBA history!
Let’s see what photos I can get!
