The owner of the new Spro in Hampden, Baltimore- has been wishing to go back to Paris for a rendezvous with food, friends, and cafes. I’ve been asked to shoot some promos for his opening, and this was one of my favorites. This shoot was out of the box for me..I love to shoot children, and weddings are, by design- self explanatory with love everywhere.  So this was a challenge, to set up the shots using my pure imagination and to get the models to understand what it was that you were hoping to get out of the image. Was my focus the product (which was, in this case, coffee)? Or was it the people serving the product?

The direction I received was that this shoot was more about his staff, and not about the product. I learned much, and had a great time with a great group of people.

I hope this image makes him go back to Paris next week.  It made me want to!
