Portrait Assignment

Portait for Cure Magazine

Portrait Photography is one of the great pleasures in life. You get to meet new and interesting people who let you spend even a few moments talking with them and capturing a few portraits. Every few months I get a call from Cure Magazine for an assignment, and I always wish they happened more often.

Portrait of Nina Beaty for Care Magazine

This week was assigned a portrait shoot for Care Magazine of Nina Beaty who is a Lung Cancer Survivor. Her story is really fascinating, starting with a family history that embedded with Broadway royalty, her grandfather was Richard Rodgers (of Rodgers and Hammerstein). After a chance encounter with a doctor who was treating her mother and a very luckily timed scan, she caught her cancer at just the right time to be detected and is doing great on a trial immunotherapy treatment.

Shot with the Fujifilm GFX 50S and 63mm F2.8 lens and lighting is sometime window light and sometime Profoto B2's.

Portrait of Geoffrey Zakarian for City Harvest

I'm so glad we rescheduled this shoot for after the snow storm that happened a couple of weeks ago. It was still freezing cold but the photos don't show that. Geoffrey Zakarian was super to work with and being able to photograph an Iron Chef and Food Network celebrity is like winning the Super Bowl for me.

Shot with a Canon 5D Mark IV and 24-70mm F2.8 lens. Light is a Profoto B2 with a large profoto deep umbrella.
