Steampunk Photo Shoot Professional Fashion Photography
Steampunk Photo Shoot
Professional Fashion / Period Photography
Hey everyone… It’s been kinda crazy over the last few months from co-hosting Digital Photography Cafe too shooting a ton of projects. From Music Album Photography and Design to Fashion Photography and everything in between, I will be sharing some of the latest images in up and coming entries.
For this week, myself and Trevor Current, co-host of Digital Photography Cafe, spoke about Creativity, it’s importance and how to find it if you’ve lost it! 
If you haven’t had a chance to listen in, please take a moment to do so. Episode 29
This week a wonderful lady contact us regarding shooting an image for a book author Scott Westerfeld contest in the genre of SteamPunk. If you don’t know what Steampunk is, simply visualize a cross between Victorian & Sci-fi or H. G. Wells / Jules Verne work. Honestly, I knew just about nothing about it until doing this shoot and now think it’s great and credit it to getting my creative juices flowing once again.

Classy Boudoir Photography Behind The Scenes TV Segment
Classy Boudoir Photography Behind The Scenes TV Segment
NBC 6 / Telemundo 51 Miami
Previously we were interviewed by The TodayShow for what I call my “Classy Not Trashy” Boudoir Photography. Just recently we were approached by a producer from NBC 6 / Telemundo 51 Miami to do a full segment regarding this specific form of photography.
Boudoir Photography should force the photographer to create images that flatter their client and do so in a classy manor but over the years I saw so many “boudoir photos” that in my mind did the contrary. I made it my goal to bring the Classy back to Boudoir Photography and it’s my hope this thought can be seen within my boudoir photographs.
Like all other forms of portraiture, Boudoir Photography does allow for surreal themes, playfulness and artistry with styling seen within the pages of todays top fashion magazines.
With a strong collaboration between The Client, My Beautiful Wife, Fabiola, Licensed Cosmetologist / Hair & Makeup Artist and myself professional photographer we create images that are truly timeless.
I’ve been told by clients that our sensual photography sessions are life transforming events and many women have returned years later for followup sessions as a way to document their life’s journey of self discovery!
We are located in Sunny South Florida Palm Beach County but travel the country and even worldwide sharing our gifts.
From Fine Art, Boudoir, Modeling and Commercial Photography project, I would like to welcome all to contact me for more information. Enjoy the segment!

On Location “Run & Gun” Test Hasselblad H4D-40 Medium Format Digital Camera
Run & Gun was my theme – Unlike many, I decided to detach this $27,000 camera kit from it’s umbilical cord and shot untethered with high speed UDMA SanDisk 16gb & 32gb Memory Cards.
At $1,000/hr for location costs, it was both Awe-Inspiring & Exhilarating at the same time! I can not say enough about the team of 11 creatives whom collaborated on this project to make it happen! Thank you all!
This video is simply a fast paced “Run & Gun” depiction of the Fashion Shoot testing the Hasselblad H4D-40 Medium Format Digital Camera. I hope you enjoy it.

How to pick an Actor Headshot or Modeling Headshot Photographer?
How to pick an Actor Headshot or Modeling Headshot Photographer?
HINT: ALL ASPIRING MODELS & ACTORS MUST KNOW
When commissioning a photographer, take the time to look at their portfolio, discuss with them exactly what you or the agency requires and for the Love of God, do your due diligence before wasting your money.
If you think (man or woman) you can do your own hair & makeup; SLAP YOURSELF once for being ignorant and twice for being so damn cheap! (Did I say that?… YES! YES I DID…) A hair & makeup artist on location during your session will not only provide you with a better photographic appearance but will also provide different hair do’s and fashion styling which ultimately will benefit you by providing a greater number of looks to proof through once your session is over.

The Creating of an Image & Professional Branding of a Company
The Creating of an Image & Professional Branding of a Company
I’m publishing this short entry as a follow up to my previous article entitled ” Professional Branding Portraiture Photography – Ditch the 80’s Real Estate Head Shot “. Let me beginning by giving you some background: A few weeks back the studio receives contact from a brand new company which was in need of a “Look”, a “Brand”, or “Image” to allow their clients to recognize them immediately when seeing their promotional materials.
This strong association between the Company and the Brand is one of the most critical factors when starting a new venture and is so often over looked..

Allure Multimedia Professional Commercial Photographer * Q: ISO vs Strobes vs Monolights
Will higher useable ISO create a resurgence of small Strobes vs Monolights?
As an event and commercial photographer base in West Palm Beach, FL, I’m continuously replacing old gear with new to increase productivity. Well, yesterday I began searching for a new set of studio strobes as ours are… let’s just say… getting at bit long in the tooth!
Jumped head first into researching which of today’s monolights was not only high quality but also were the best bang for the buck. While reading reviews and of course asking friends and fellow professional photographers, @trevorcurrent, @photojack, @lensflare35, @newmediaphoto, just to name a few, on Twitter — my second home. Quickly it became apparent that this cross section of well-recognized Pros would have answers as diverse as the style of photography they worked in. From Alien Bee to ProFoto and everything in between!

Boudoir Photography….Classy NOT Trashy – Top South Florida Boudoir Photographer
The best place in South Florida to go for classy Boudoir photos is Allure Multimedia, LLC.
Lisa Minns – West Palm Beach Single Women Examiner
Boudoir photography…..classy not trashy
In the age of flash and technology it’s become increasingly harder to buy a gift for that special someone that will just blow him away. Hmmm……clothes? Boring. Watches? Been done. Fancy dinner? Very nice but only if your man enjoys fine dining. Not all do so that can be risky. Vacations? Fabulous but can be pricey and once they are over all you are left with are the memories and the pictures. Pictures? Now we are onto something. Why not have some boudoir photos taken of yourself and give them to your man? Seriously! Pictures last forever and trust me, no man is going to turn down beautiful pictures of his woman. From the sensual feminine photographic period of Betty Page to the cover styles of Maxim this fact has been proven time and time again. Of course, now the question is….where do I go for something like this. Glamour shots certainly isn’t advertising this service and is it weird to go have sexy shots taken of yourself? No way it’s not weird! As for where you go, I have the answer to that. The best place in South Florida to go for classy Boudoir photos is Allure Multimedia, LLC. Let photographer Joseph Cristina take you to a side of yourself that you never believed existed.

Professional Actor Actress Headshot Palm Beach Photographer
Cristina was very cool and easy to work with. Not very much time was needed before Cristina was off hitting pose after pose!! After 30 minutes to warm up all images forward were strong and very usable! Cristina picked her favorite two and I massaged them into 8×10 headshots and had them professional reproduced on high-end photographic paper fit to be given to any agency or casting call.
Fabiola of Fairytale Beauty, LLC, my infamous wife ( LOL ) provided all hair and makeup for this shoot. Fabiola specializes in Professional Bridal Hair & Makeup Services in South Florida but as a team, Fabiola and myself work on many projects together: As indicated in the past they include actor head-shots; celebrity headshots; male & female model headshots along with fashion; commercial; wedding photography; catalog; gala events; boudoir sessions and much much more. For over 15 years we have been honing our skills and hope it shows in our work.
It has always been my goal to positively change the lives of all I photograph. I put 110% of my heart and soul into each and every image. As I always say, the devils in the details and I truly believe this to be the case!
Gone are the days of dark room retouching / photo processing elbows deep in chemicals. Now I sit in front of multiple 30″ LCD monitors to do the same work! The methods have changed over time but the time to create a work of art has not. So many things in photography seem easier now with the advent of digital. The truth be told, it is NOT! I will leave it at that and may blog about this in the near future.
