Stacy + Joe :: Phoenix Lifestyle Photographer
May 27, 2010

Yaaaay!! I love meeting and working with other photographers, but photogs with hearts of gold? That’s this girl. In a few short weeks, Stacy has become such a sweet girlfriend. As a photographer, it’s easy to get caught up in capturing other people’s lives and neglect documenting our own. SO, we set a date, met up in downtown Mesa, and made magic.

On a side note, I think I may have created a monster… Marcus k-i-l-l-e-d this shoot. He grabbed some of my favorite shots of the day! Enjoy the pickies of Stacy and her great hubs, Joe! HEART you two!!

Off to a good start with those kicks.

So, supermodel Joe here is supposedly WAY shy in front of the camera. Dare I say, “we told you so“? You look awesome! These next two shots were [unfortunately] Marcus’s ;)

Marcus’s!

Sportin’ the goods!

Just beautiful. Mmmm

They’re so lovey together. The best!

I love this!

I’ll end on one of my faves, taken by the man half.

XOXO!

the SOLE movement, pt.1
May 21, 2010

It’s really happening, and quite quickly. The SOLE Movement has found its identity and is being manifested through the lives of Marcus Murphy and Dennis Gable. Because this is ONLY part one, I don’t want to give too much away.

Be interested, stay current, and I’ll be on the horn as soon as their site and dates are DUN! For now, kick back and enjoy the two goobers in action.

Start With What You Have
May 7, 2010

I spent the afternoon backing up old files and stumbled through my countless folders from Thailand. Although I was just starting to take photography seriously, and hardly had any equipment, I found a few images I liked that I hadn’t post-processed. Here’s one from a fashion shoot in Bangkok that I worked on with Manny Librodo.

It’s a simple reminder. You don’t need to be teched-out with the latest and greatest of everything to capture a quality image. Find the light, create an emotion, and shoot with passion. If it’s in you, it’s in you.

Happy Friday, xoxo

    Gina, Very well put, “if it’s in you, it’s in you”….. and it is definately in you!! A very interesting photo you posted. I remember very well following you in your travels to Thailand. I am sure you made difference there. It is still good having you here in the USA. Love you always.
