If you’re looking for a great [Hudson Valley food photographer](http://www.davebrownphotography.com/Hudson Valley-food-photographer.aspx), you should really check out my portfolio.  While I do mostly shoot fashion, I have a real love for food photography.  It’s probably because I grew up cooking, and have always has a passion for great food.

I finally have some breathing room to get caught up on my blogging.  Expect to see a bunch of stuff that I’ve worked on lately.  One of the things that I’ve been working on lately is updating my food portfolio.  I want to branch out a bit, and start booking more work for that market segment.  I have to be honest though,… really what I love is taking pictures o

When you’re shopping for a headshot photographer there are few things that you should really consider before you book a photographer.  Here’s my top 10 things I wish all my clients new before they ended up with a terrible shot from another photographer.

1.  There’s a huge difference between a headshot and a portrait.

I know it might not sound like the two are different but they are.  One is designed to sell you.  A headshot is all about the sale.  Who are you marketing yourself towards.  A photographer should understand your ‘client base’ and be able to create an image that really sells you to them.  A portrait is gre

Oh man was this a fun shoot.  Leah came in for some headshots, and we had planned on a nice sunny day.  That wasn’t exactly what happened though.  As soon as she showed up to start hair and makeup it started snowing.  It was abundantly clear it was going to be a different shoot entirely.  I was super excited about shooting in the s

I can’t tell you how much fun the last few days have been.  First off this weekend I had two fantastic shoots.  One was a modeling portfolio shoot that went awesome, and the second one was headshots for an opera singer here in Hudson Valley.  I can’t share any of the pictures yet, but I’m super excited about them.  We shot

Well I’m finally back from my trip to Seattle, and I’m out from under the most horrific stomach flu I’ve ever had in my life.  I won’t go into details, but let’s just say I’m super glad that’s over with.

Seattle was fun, no major news to report.  I went down to the fish market, but I was kinda disappointed.  I thought it was bigger, and cooler.  I guess there’s very

These shots sure were fun.  Heidi is a great local Hudson Valley model.  She’s been a model for Donna Baldwin for just a little while, but already she’s had some pretty big gigs.  She was a blast to work with with, and I think we got some killer shots.  It sure was fun working with her pretty face.  These kinds of headshots are my bread and butter, and wh

Here are some shots I did with a local Donna Baldwin Model Alyssa.  Man was she great to work with.  She moved really well, and had a fantastic look to her.  We had a ton of fun shooting together.  We wanted to put some great stuff into her portfolio to make her a bit more marketable around here.  She hadn’t really done much shooting in a while, and her look had changed a bit, so she wanted to update her comp card.  So we went with a couple of outside looks, and some studio stuff.  We wanted to add some variety so she would have lots of stuff to choose from for her comp card.  I worked with her fantastic agent over at Donna to make sure we came o

Here’s some more shots that I did this summer with a local Hudson Valley agency model, Jacqueline.  She was a blast to work with.  And the whole time I managed to tease her about the fact that I thought because her name was Jacqueline, that she was clearly french.  So I talked to her in a joking french accent for most of our shoot.  Luckily she was a good sport about it.  We had a ton of fun on this shoot.  We ended up doing a pretty early morning shoot, as I think she was busy with a ton of things around this time.  This was right around the time that she took a trip out to Hudson Valley, to work with some of the great photographers out there.  Which was h

A while ago I got a great chance to work with this beauty.  This is Brianna, who’s a local model who works for the Wilhelmina Modeling agency.  Man is this girl talented.  When she showed up in my studio, I knew we were going to get some fantastic shots.  She’s got a gorgeous face, and came with some fun clothes, and her makeup looked flawless.  I had seen Brianna on their boards, and just really loved her look.  So I was super excited when I got a chance to work with her.  We wanted to add some versatility to her portfolio.  Something that would show a few different looks, and sides.  I always try and add as much variation as I
