Collins/Jeudy Portrait Session (better known as Xmas Party Photos reshoot) Misawa Japan

So, weve all been there… had our photos taken at a work Christmas party, or at a wedding or really any event…and hated the results. Too bright, lack of posing optins…etc. All in all very few people are happy with what they get and you cant always blame the photographer because event photography is just...

“Breakfast with Santa” 35th FSS- Misawa Colocated, Misawa Japan

I was contacted a few months back to photograph the  Breakfast with Santa event that the 35th FSS holds each year, and normally I would be hesitant to agree for well known reasons. Just Google Santa photos, and you’ll see what most parents end up with. I was concerned when I was told to expect...

Herre Family Portrait Session, Misawa Japan

Another one that was LONG overdue and what I like about this session is that I barely had to work. Normally, I shoot about 50% more than I need, just to make sure that I have to work with. This time though, I was in and out in about 20 min. Walked up the hill,...

Nancy Keller, Portrait Session Misawa, Japan

My friend Nancy was only here for a short time, and had been wanting to have her portrait done, but due to timing and weather (of course), we were never able to work it out. However, just before she left Japan, the weather warmed up just enough that she didnt freeze and we were able...

Exum Family Portrait, Kabuki Onsen- Misawa Japan

So second times the charm! First time, like most sessions lately, was rained out and this time I couldnt tell if I was more worried about rain or snow! I met the Exum family at Kabuki Onsen, near the Misawa Train station and luckily it wasnt raining… though it wanted to. We only had about...

Team Photos, a new way- Misawa AirBase, Japan

Team Sport shoots rarely offer anything interesting for parents or the photographer. You know its bad when a whole group of nine year olds are dreading it! That being said, I hesitated when I was asked to photograph two local youth vollyball teams. Not because of the children or the parents, just because I knew...

Keon and Paula Portrait Session- Outskirts of Misawa, Japan

I love photography couples. This is no secret. Not that I dont also love shooting babies, and …well anything I can get…but couples are just fun! I have the opportunity to tell a story, or at least capture an emotion that they’ll be able to look back on in 20 years and its THEM, how...
