Heading to Philly on July 8th through the 10th. Plan on shooting as much as possible while I’m there. If you are in the area and would like to set up a shoot please email me at dustingenphoto@gmail.com.

I really enjoy this city. The people, the atmosphere, the creativity that flows through me, and making memories and laughing with my friends while I’m here.

My first shoot was with Jordan in an old park that’s pretty vacant. It was a good setting because it had some of the city skyline in the background, benches, dead trees, city decay, and obviously snow all around us. The temperature was probably in the 20′s and I had her prancing around in a mini dress and she was barefoot. She was a total trooper the whole time though and only started to feel the cold when her feet went numb.

My friends Joe and Jose came by to help out and take some behind the scene photos for me. Jose took all these photos and Joe helped me lug around the lights and be my test subject so I could get everything just right.

On a side note-I mainly shoot outdoors with natural light and rarely rely on using strobes with my shoots. My shoots rarely are over the top productions so I don’t really use any lighting but the big fireball in the sky. However, that limits what I plan on doing with my work so I wanted to have fun and try some new things. My good friends Amanda and Justin let me borrow their AlienBee ab800 and beauty dish to try out. I really enjoyed it and the results that I got from it.

Needless to say Philly spoils me.
