The Hollywood Gazette | South Florida Commercial Photographer

I have been shooting covers for the Hollywood Gazette for the past 4 years.  My first cover was May 2010 and I was lucky enough to use my sister as my cover model.  I love being a part of a monthly magazine that showcases my hometown community.  And I love it even more when I can meld together personal work with professional.  When it came time to shoot the August cover, I was given one direction by the Gazette’s editor in chief, Jennifer Sandomir, “Back to school”.  Perfect! I had been wanting to do a “back to school” inspired shoot using my girls.  Anything with a “theme” is completely out of my comfort zone.  I couldn’t wait to flex my creative muscle a bit.   So I called up my girl Alissa and we were able to check off a week of our “One Shoot a Week” personal project.  Alissa set it up at her house, dressed our girls in both vintage and original pieces created by her (under her children’s line 5 Stitches), and we just let the girls play school.

The Hollywood Gazette is a free monthly magazine.  Make sure you pick up a copy to check which adorable image made the cover.

See you soon,
