My first shoot of 2012January 17, 2012 by ToastedSurfer
Hello everyone! This blog is all about Elaina. I did this shoot on January 2, 2012 and started just as the sun was rising and finished around 9. Elaina was a trooper and battled the cool morning temperature and 70 degree Atlantic without complaining once (love to work with models who don't complain and just go for it, which is pretty rare)
Shot with my D7000 with my 24-70mm f/2.8. That's pretty much my go-to lens now. Enjoy!








And as always more to come
Natalia Part 2January 9, 2012 by ToastedSurferOk guys, as promised from last week's tease: here's part 2 of my shoot with Natalia-doing a school themed shoot. Shot with my D7000 with 24-70 f/2.8 & 50mm f/1.4. And also remember from now on all my pics will be watermarked-hope ya'll don't mind.




And just so nobody will call me a sexist, here's Natalia with Jonathan:



And as always: "There's more to come"
Going to try to get back to the weekly blogs on Monday's so be sure to come back every Monday evening
Happy New Year!January 2, 2012 by ToastedSurferGreetings everyone! Hope you guys didn't get too wild or arrested on New Year's Eve/Day-still can't remember it all. Right now I'm neck deep in Photoshop-just wrapped up a beach photoshoot this morning with a gorgeous model-expect pics on her in the next several weeks. Guess I can call myself one of the first photographers of 2012 to shoot on a beach this year.
Anyway, since I'm taking a short break from photochoppin' today's pictures. Here's a quick pic from Natalia blowing you guys a kiss. Next week I will do a complete blog-with more pics of her.
Shot in Miami with my D7000 with 24-70mm f/2.8

Hope you guys don't mind the watermark, most of my work if not all from now on will have it included. And as always more to come
Long time no see! Getting back in the blogging spirit!December 19, 2011 by ToastedSurferHey guys I've taken a threeish month hiatus from my usual ign blogs. Been insanely busy-lots of shoots which I will put into blogs for ya'll. And I'm neck deep in pre-production for my next film which I'm planning to shoot in February which is taking up a bit of my time. Anyway I've decided to try my hardest to commit myself to having a steady blog up for you guys as frequently as time allows.
Anyway this shoot was from my 2nd most recent shoot/or my most recent for MMA Candy. The model is Alexis & I admit I got a bit carried away with the anamorphic flares but really think they look cool! Shot with my D7000 and 24-70mm f/2.8 & 50mm f/1.8. Ya'll can check out all the pics on our site MMACandy.com & if ya'll check out our youtube account there's a behind the scenes which you might find a quick shot of yours truly-or the back of my head. These are my favorite from the set. Enjoy!!!






And as always more to come! & Happy Holidays!!!
New blog to cheer ya'll upAugust 23, 2011 by ToastedSurferOk so I heard that Jessica Chobot is officially off the market, and have been feeling a bit down for some of the day after hearing that-I'm sure some of ya'll feel the same way. Congrats to Jess and Blair Herter.
Anyway last Monday I almost freaked out, I posted one of the most revealing blogs I have ever made here on Ign (check it out if you missed it). And almost immediately after was when Ign was kindof "down" I couldn't sign in or anything. So I thought I was blocked for my "revealing" blog. Turns out it was just a technical glitch for an hour or two-so again check it out if you missed it.
The model for this week's blog is Seri. I shot this fairly recently, and was going for more of a "rough" look. Hence natural lighting, dark shadows, a little bit of noise added, and for kicks my fog machine. Shot with my D7000 with 50mm f/1.4 and 18-105mm f/3.5



And as always more to come!
