Animal Instinct

I took this shot at a local gallery/fashion show which was held at Center City Galleries in my hometown of Paterson, NJ. Its one of my favorite shots of the night, the girl in the picture loved it and now many other photogs and models have viewed it on Facebook.

I was invited to display 5 of my images at the gallery on Saturday night where the fashion show was being held. Out of the five pieces I displayed on the wall, I actually sold two! It was a great night meeting and networking with other artist, photographers, and models. I printed out a bunch of my best shots on 5x7's which included my name & contact info to pass out to those who I mingled with during the night. I also had a chance to shoot a few models using studio lighting. The whole gallery experience along with the networking was the best thing I could have done for myself, walking away with new contacts was worth more than I can imagine. I now have a studio I can visit, and a handful of new model contacts to use in future shoots. I cant wait for the next oppurtunity, I look foward to making a habit out of going to galleries in the future even if its just for the purpose of networking.

 

Here is a series of shots I took on Saturday
