James B – Black and White Photoshoot

James The Poet

This is my friend James.  You can find him on Instagram: @poejob and on Youtube at James Owen Brown.

He does local gigs in the Niagara Region (Canada).  You can always see him and his lovely wife Autumn perform at Haunt Manor in Niagara Falls during the season in Sept and October.[read more] 

Check his Instagram account for updates.

We did a short 15 minute photo shoot.  Me practicing with my Nikon Z6 and forcing myself to only use my 50mm F1.8 lens.  Great dynamic range with the full frame and extremely quick focusing even in low light.  Love this camera.[/read]

David Bowie Inspired Photos …

Courtney Again

When I do a 'creative' shoot I will often start with a photo or some type of image from another artist. This is usually just a point of 'jumping off' so to speak. With a creative model and lights, camera, etc it can end up anywhere. I showed Courtney the type of image of David Bowie with cigarette that I wanted to start with: suggestions of clothing, makeup, etc and we were off. Courtney is a singer - opera - with a voice like a very powerful angel. She is wonderfully animated and I love shooting with her. A few of the pics are here on the blog and some in the main section of the website.
