2014 was an amazing, wonderful, down right spectacular year for AJBC Photography. You know why?
Because of all the beautiful 75 faces you see here (I'm missing a few for the ladies who wanted to stay private.)
Beauty, Boudoir, Families, Kids, Seniors, Weddings, Destination Weddings, Animals, Fitness, Commercial, Events, Products. All in 1 year. All because these amazing people believed in what I could create for them, what we could create together.
It blows my mind seeing everything and everyone together in 1 box. My (almost) whole year in recap. From the first tiny square to the last, ever experience, every session, every client, every new friend I made, every moment we captured, it has changed me, it has shaped me, it's now a documented piece of history. I can not wait for 2015 and I can't thank you all enough for filling each and every square here.

I'm not sure where all this Black and White is coming from...
It just seems right.
This week I wanted to focus on an easy concept. No photoshop, no craziness, no time-consuming props. Just an "in camera" photograph. A lot of the time that takes more skill then a photo you spend hours tweaking with keys and controls in a program.
I wanted to play with depth of field, lighting, texture, something abstract.
When we took this shot I was very interested in how it looked and felt more like a painting then a photograph. I could picture someone drawing these forms and laying a piece out in this way.
The circle is just a basket we held up (I love how it draw your attention right to her beautiful, sparkling, almost haunting eyes, and the fun abstract sguiggles is a just a branch I found while walking outside one day.
All together, I feel as though it makes for an interesting piece.
Our more simplistic, softer concept below:
Beautiful woman.
Independent.
A creative soul.
A fashion Designer AND a Film Maker.
AND she lives in Australiua.
Do they make people cooler??
I am so happy I was able to help her put her vision of her new style and image in to a physical form. I LOVE working with small (and big) business owners along with independent people. They are inspiring in every way and prove you can do whatever you want in life as long as you have passion, determination, and a path. See just a handful of the images we created for her.
"Last Call" by ajbc photography
week 4 of the 52 week project
"Staring at a ghost across a table set for two,
This is the last call before the credits roll.
The charm of silver screen depression saturated in alcohol.
It's so seductive.
Filtered through tobacco haze.
It's so fucking intoxicating,
The way they glimmer through the grain and make dysfunction such a fashion."
-Every Time I Die
Just like last week:
week 3
This week started with a different idea in mind too.
That's the nice things about art- ideas form, forms take shape, shapes change.
I'm ok with that.
Here's the original concept, 8 images meshed in to one. When I was done I just felt like it was too much and the original concept and strength was lost, so I broke things down.
