The Real Deal

I am an aspiring fashion photographer and until last week I never worked on set with a professional fashion photographer before.  Well I can tell you for sure that it wasn't luck that I got to work with this photographer because he purely believes in the universe connecting things and people as they were meant to. Shamayim is a award winning international fashion photographer that likes to wear all black and also has a great taste in music and you should definitely let him give you a lecture about the relationship between you and your camera. It was like a dream come true for me being on set, but I had keep my cool and I think I did a great job at that. My job was to capture behind the scenes shots and was having a bit of difficulty at the beginning but through the guidance of Bizzy I got the hang of what they're really looking for. The experience showed me the value of being a great student which required me keeping my ego and pride on check at all times. The lessons I learned will all be made cleared in the pictures I will show you; if you go back to my recent pictures and compare them with these, you will see all that I've learned, the little talks I had with the models and make up artists, the connections I made with everyone on set, that one time we were all clogged up in the bathroom to get that perfect shot, going to that hotel and being amazed of the view and balcony, those amazing pineapples and blue cheese and finally, the dam best meatless sandwich I ever had. So it wasn't luck at all that I was given this opportunity because I can honestly say I that I've evolved as a photographer with a much greater appreciation of the art and all of its technicality.
