This year, we hope to do more creative editorial work. This is from a calendar shoot for Abiodun Koya, a Washington DC, based opera singer. Abby was fun and open to experimenting with different concepts including this dungeon like shot. The lighting and mood was perfect for the vision, so we rolled with it.

April 7, 2010 - 10:08 am - This is great, looks like she is in a dungeon i can't wait to have you shoot my wedding, I loved what you did for Jennifer's wedding, so excited.

I had the privilage of shooting her suprise party and was blown away by how young she looks on her 39th birthday. My photographer’s instincts couldn’t resist putting her next to a piano and taking a few shots. I just had to share this beautiful shot.
January 5, 2010 - 8:41 pm - WOOOOOOW!!!!! The photography is outstanding, I especially love the black and white portrait its beautiful. What a night!!!!!
January 5, 2010 - 9:53 pm - These pictures are soo lovely! Photographer, you are really talented and the model is totally fabulous.

January 7, 2010 - 1:00 pm - OUTSTANDING WORK!
Kelli and Sam are awesome, I had so much fun on their engagement shoot in spite of the bleak cold weather. They took me to all their special places and I felt like for a few hours I was truly a part of their dreams, and when I was editing their images, gosh I got goosebumps with some of the emotion they showed in the pictures, see for yourself below. It was soo hard chosing which images would go on the blog, they have soo many amazing shots. Here is my take though, some of the spreads are in the form of wedding guest book spreads. Congratulations!
December 5, 2009 - 9:04 pm - Nafa...the pictures look ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL !!! The editing was fantastic ! Nafa, we thankyou so much, for a fun shoot and a wonderful memory that will last us 50 years + !!!!. We are looking forward to working with you again soon ( In April :) ) GOD BLESS YOU !!!!!
December 7, 2009 - 8:26 am - Lovely shots. #2 and the BW night shot I love much.
December 7, 2009 - 10:57 pm - Beautiful shots! I love the composition with "Surrender to my love" especially.
I have been so incredibly busy lately I haven’t been able to post any new pictures. Next week most of the bustle will be over. I want to leave you with this Alter Ego Post of Abiodun, a classical lyric soprano opera singer. Hearing her sing “the phantom of the opera” will give you some gooosebumps. This shot was unplanned, I got the inspiration while she was getting ready for a shoot we did recently for her 2010 calendar. In this picture she is both the diva and the make-up artist. I have been told that many Broadway artists do their own make-up so it ties in with our picture story. I will post more pictures later. Enjoy!
February 2, 2010 - 6:35 pm - Hello Nafa. That picture of Abiodun is awesome! I would love to get do a shoot of myself similar to that one. What are your rates for something like that?
February 7, 2010 - 9:59 pm - I would love to do an alter ego shoot for a wedding gift to my soon to be husband. Do you do that type of photograpy?
Mindy and Steve were a delight to shoot, the car, whoaa that machine is sweet! I don’t know if Mindy will agree with me though. This is the same car that was in the new Transformers movie, we got a lot of attention during this shoot, everywhere we went people wanted to stop and chat about the car. We literally had to rush through the alter ego shoot because the station manager wanted us out lol.
Disclaimer this is not an engagement shoot. The artist playing is La Roux, a UK artist about to hit it big on the music scene in the United States, read more about her at www.barkbiteblog.com
November 16, 2009 - 9:14 pm - NAFA! So excited to see this preview!!! Turned out great!
November 16, 2009 - 9:50 pm - Love the picture with the alter egos! Amazing!
November 18, 2009 - 7:02 pm - Nafa I absolutely LOVED the shots. The pictures came out nothing short of beautiful!
December 7, 2009 - 8:28 am - very nice framing on the last shot, beautiful couple to shoot.
May 20, 2010 - 10:50 am - I'm digging this shoot... I love the concept
