5 Photos of a 7 Year Old Girl Basketball Player with Bigger Muscles than You

Would you look at those biceps?? We’ve had the opportunity of working with Tylee several times from basketball to cheerleading. Needless to say, her athleticism never ceases to amaze us! Not only is she one of the toughest 7 year old athletes we know, but she’s also one of the cutest! Tylee always takes direction very well and even has some of her own ideas to throw into the mix. We had a blast taking these photos (as always) so enjoy these first 5 images as an exclusive release from Tylee’s session. (More to come soon!) P.s. Tylee wants us to let you guys know that she plays basketball for the Dandridge Spiders. But where most spiders have 8 arms, she has 2 arms that are as strong as 8!!! Tell us you favorite below!

Photos: How to Dress to Impress. Urban Fashion in Atlanta, GA.

Take some style points from our man, KJ. UPDATE: Check out the Part 2 of Kennedy’s session – What is in Your Closet? Before our trip across the Midwest, we had the opportunity of working with one of Atlanta’s best dressed men. Not only is Kennedy a sharp dresser, but he is also a great mentor for the children at RCA. RCA, or Ron Clark Academy, is a private middle school located in Atlanta and is filled with like-minded professionals who are very passionate about what they do. After talking with Kennedy for a bit, we could tell that his passion as a teacher, educator, and a role model went above and beyond. So, not only can you check out Kennedy’s awesome wardrobe for styling tips, but he’s a great inspiration to follow your dreams, also. P.S. For those of you that really wanted the fashion advice, everything you saw here came from Suit Supply! Thanks for browsing.

Epic View of Atlanta Skyline at Night

What an epic view of the Atlanta skyline! This post is a bit different than our normal posts, however this shot of the Atlanta skyline was just too cool not to share! This location, on Jackson Street near Freedom Parkway, is very easily accessible to grab a quick shot of the city. Also, this view happens to be one of the most famous locations for AMC’s “The Walking Dead“. Now, the production for The Walking Dead may have use a tad bit of post production in their image, but the angle of the skyline and the apartments on the left are still identifiable, nonetheless. If you’re a fan of The Walking Dead, you can click here to compare the two for yourself. Enjoy!

Travel – Self Portrait Under the Gateway Arch, St. Louis

Q.) What happens when a group of photographers band together and travel all over the United States for a month? A.) You get some pretty sweet self-portraits in some pretty Iconic places! Big shout out to TH Peterson Photography for helping us with this shot in St. Louis. Behind the Photo As we traveled through St. Louis, we knew we had to get a quick shot of the Gateway Arch, but “quick” is never the case when you’re on the road. Needless to say, there is currently a lot of construction going on in downtown St. Louis and that definitely didn’t help us stay on schedule. Tommy, Alexandra, and I probably drove around St. Louis — not to mention Illinois… Yeah… we ended up taking a few left turns at Albuquerque — However, we were finally able to find a spot to park near the Arch. That wasn’t the end of our struggle, though. Let’s just say St. Louis was FREAKIN COLD (for lack of a better word). If you look closely, you can see some ice and snow on the ground as well as our lips getting froze together like a scene from “Dumb and Dumber”. Either way, […]

Strobist Snow Portraits in a Scranton, Kansas blizzard.

The Details Since we’ve been in Kansas, we’ve haven’t had a lot of free time to share any of our progress via our blog or social media outlets, but the requests to see some photos keep rolling in, nonetheless! So, without further adieu, here are a few strobist snow portraits we took in Scranton — a small town near Topeka, Kansas with a few Alienbee B800s, Vagabond minis, a Paul C Buff cyber commander, Canon 5D Mkiii, 70-200 f2.8 L, 24x36in softbox, and a standard 7in cone. (Not to mention a few plastic, grocery store bags draped over our lights to shield them from the snow!) Enjoy! The Full Story So while in Kansas working with T.H. Peterson Photography, we got about 10-12 inches of snow overnight with very little notice. Of course being a group of photographers, we all wanted to do a portrait of someone in the snow! But the question was, how in the world were we supposed to drive anywhere or have anyone get to us? The roads were completely covered and the snow was still coming down. A little bit of snow wasn’t going to stop us from taking a snow portrait of someone, though. […]
