Brad and Suz are now on Instagram.  We are having fun shooting with our iPod cameras and experimenting with the Hipstamatic.  Some of the lenses and films there remind us of old toy film cameras like the Diana camera.  Follow us if you like.   We are jasper674 and suzippity.
Here are some of our experiments using Hipstamatic, Tinto 1884 Lens and D-type film, no flash.

NKU Warholian Project by Photosmith







A couple of years ago, we were approached by an artist who had the creative task of creating a wall of portraits of all NKU alumni council presidents. He came to us asking if we would be interested in photographing all the presidents and then rendering the photos in a loosely based Warhol style. The process took several turns before the final project was agreed upon. Today, the complete project is installed in the student union building on the campus of Northern Kentucky University. A big splash of color. Here are a few photos from the last shoot. Ultimately, the rendering process was toned down for political reasons, but these renderings are the ones we enjoyed the most. We are currently shooting the current president, president elect and what I can only think to call the president elect elect.

Holiday Mini Sessions by Photosmith, Cincinnati, Ohio

Here are some of the photos that came out of the holiday mini sessions. We are currently making plans for our Springtime Artist's Choice Mini Sessions. We will announce a day soon and have some preview pictures to show. The sessions will be here in our studio. We are thinking of props and scenarios to add to the shoots. For the winter holidays, we had some hats, presents, lights, a santa suit and an antique sled. We used a few sock monkeys in the photos, not that sock monkeys are really synonymous with the holidays, but they do evoke a sense of fun and nostalgia. Right now we are looking at some fabrics to make into backgrounds. Thinking about flowers and springtime is like a distant dream during these cold days! Spring will be here soon, though!
