Joe Phillips Warrior Archer Character Shoot

Joe, an aspiring actor and close friend, approached us about a character shoot for his portfolio. Instead of the usual straightforward headshot, we opted to go all out for a full character study. This better shows the actors potential to portray a certain look. Character shoots offer actors the ability to create a body of work in a short period of time that they can then pair with their film work to show greater versatility; something very valuable in the entertainment industry.

So… a bottle of lighter fluid, several arrows, a bow, and 36 smoke grenades later this is what we came up with.

The Morning On Fire’s Self Titled Full Length Album

Work we photographed for The Morning On Fire, a local CT indie rock band. The concept depicts the band as being placed before a firing squad; a metaphor for their bearing their souls before the judgemental eyes of the public.

The Morning on Fire performing live at Daniel Street!

We filmed a live performance of The Morning on Fire at Daniel Street Pub in Milford, CT. This is the first teaser of a larger project in the works.

The Morning On Fire: CD Release Live at Daniel St Pub from Linked Ring Photography on Vimeo.

The Morning On Fire playing “This Song Is For You” at Daniel St Pub in Milford, CT. The video was filmed by Linked Ring Photography on two 5D Mark II’s. One camera was mounted on a tripod with a fluid head, the other on a DIY modified monopod steadicam. Audio was recorded on camera.

The band recently finished a small East Coast tour and is currently planning a larger one. Check them out!

Monika

Nicole and I took a trip up to one of our favorite locations in West Chester County, an abandoned quarry, to shoot some shots for Monika’s modeling portfolio. For these we incorporated the lighting of both the setting sun as well as external speedlites in order to create complimentary color casts and unique highlights.
