I love getting new and different opportunities to create images that are outside of what I normally do. This is the second time that I’ve gotten to do a portrait session for American Motorcyclist, which is the magazine of the American Motorcyclist Association. Tom Mehran is a local guy that runs a couple of online publications including Sound Rider that contributed an article for the magazine. I was very happy with what we came up with. I met Tom down at Golden Gardens a little before sunset, set up some lights (I love my radiopoppers!), and created some dramatic sunset portraits. Very fun!


This was my favorite image from the session!

Very, very cool!
I really enjoyed doing this session with Cory. As a photographer myself I took great pleasure in torturing he and his lovely daughter/assistant with crazy shot ideas. We all had a lot of fun that night. He had the right gear to get the right shots and even had a backup ready to go when one light failed. He calls himself a wedding photographer, but he’s real good beyond that too. I would highly recommend him for any kind of portrait and family work.
Tom, looking good!!!! I agree the second picture is the best.
