A girl and a guitar

My daughter Courtney headed downtown with me for some  urban location shots.  The shoot would have gone faster but I had to keep explaining to a curious homeless guy that “no… she’s not a model… she’s my daughter.”

Back roads and Alleys

Today I wanted to have some fun and try some artistic portrait photography, the kind some people like and other people seem to hate.  So I headed off in search of  an interesting location to shoot and found myself in the the shadowy alleyways that bisect Reno’s downtown.  If you are brave enough to venture into these areas you can find some great  settings for portraits.  Here are a few HDR images from that shoot.  They have a gritty, urban feel to them that I think is kind of cool.
