Accesories and Still-Life Photography

Photo Of The Week

It is Sunday afternoon and we are so close to Spring that I thought to put out some seasonal colors out on the web. Last week I had an accessories shoot in my studio. I thought to share another photo with you from that day. Do you like it? I wish you all a good week to come.

Colorful Still-Life Photography

Photo Of The Week

Many folks ask me how I define my photography style. After reviewing my still-life portfolio I would say that my style is colorful. I like my images to pop and I allow that to happen with patterns or bright colors. Do you agree? If you'd like to see more, you may, by visiting http://www.hvdphotography.com (a link is on the right side of this page).

Nike Ad

Photo Of The Week

I photographed and designed an ad for Nike (this is a comp). The copy reads If your teeth still chatter, it's fear. The photo was taken from an excursion I took in Colorado back in the day. My friends and I climbed a 14'teener (a mountain that is 14,000 feet or above) called Challenger Peak. This summit is dedicated to the brave astronauts who lost their lives in the Challenger crash back in the 1980's. The hike was incredible! I think the photo and ad are pretty cool too!

Prada Ad

Photo Of The Week

Above is an ad that I photographed as well as designed for Prada (this is a comp). The copy reads The Price May Give Your Husband a Heart Attack But Don't Worry, It Also Comes In Black. The catch being she can wear it to his funeral. Yikes! Pretty intense copy and I think the photo is enticing as well.

Interior Design Photographs

Photo Of The Week

I have shared many of my fine art photos on this blog and realized today that I should begin to start sharing some of my commercial photography. I specialize in shooting products, interiors and conceptual still-life's. Not only do I shoot these types of photos but I am also a Graphic Designer/Art Director that can create collateral to help you grow your business in print or for the web. Usually designers need to buy photography from stock agencies or borrow images from company libraries. I, on the other hand, can execute design/photo projects all with one set of hands. I call it the TwoInOne Design Solution : Photography & Graphic Design. Now you don't need two creatives, just one. I can help you to save money!

75% Off Sale

Photo Of The Week

This photo says it all! Sad thing is that these sale signs are in so many store windows. Wouldn't it be grande if we saw these signs when the economy was rocking n' rolling. Wishful thinking!

Now Is New


Photo Of The Week

This photo was taken on 6th Avenue near Greenwich Village in NYC. I think the words say a lot! We are going through a very big transitional period right now. May peace, work and prosperity come out of these tough economical times!
