First of all, I have been teaching constantly. And I have schedule a lot of photography classes and workshops. So now is the time to learn all my tricks.
I played around with water for a bunch of boudoir photographs. Be sure to check them out. Next summer I will be doing this again.
And maternity and newborn photography is always popular. I love it when my maternity clients return for their newborn photos. It lets me enjoy a bit of that special time in their life.
Orcatek Photography is now working with CinemaTique Creative Group to produce an wide variety of project including UFOria TV, Soldier (a new docudrama), music videos and educational services.
Time to catch everyone up on what has been happening here at my Phoenix Studio. Okay, technically Tempe, but drive 1/2 mile north and you are in Scottsdale, and 1/2 mile west and you are in Phoenix, so close enough.
The wives on Vh1’s Baseball Wives show decided to make a charity pin-up calendar. I was selected to be the photographer for the project. I had so much fun working with these women on their project. Everyone treated me great and I hope to work with them again in the future.
I appeared in two episodes which can be see on Vh1’s website or on TV. I am in Episode 2 doing the actual photo shoot and in Episode 4 where we discuss the retouching they would like. All I can say is that we had a lot of fun, you’ll have to watch both episodes to see. I am in the second half of both episodes.
My photography workshops and classes are becoming very popular. I have been teaching at least one class a week and have had private lessons in between.
The holiday season is a prime season for boudoir photography, which is why I have been lacking in my blog updates. Lots of men will be getting a very special present this year.
I also shot a lot of maternity and newborn photographer sessions. Some amazing new families came in for their shoots with some of the cutest newborn babies.
And of course the rest of my time was filled with holiday portraits.
Did some more filming for the reality show as a photographer. Hopefully I won’t end up on the cutting room floor. I will keep you posted as to when it airs.
Had some real fun creating this maternity photo recently. I am always looking for new ideas.
Also been shooting a lot of boudoir photography for holiday gifts. Several have chosen to add some fine art nudes such as this one.
I also been teaching more classes. Several introduction to photography classes and a Photoshop workshop. December has a bunch more classes coming. Check out my photography workshop site for more details.
