Amazing Assistant

Speaking of photography, I was very fortunate to have Alison of "A Breath of Frake-Air" accompany me as photography assistant and creative director on my last two shoots.
Certainly she has many more talents than just a great eye for photography and I consider her a partner and advisor to 7Side Design. Her creativity challenges my own and her strengths compensate for my weaknesses. You may have only caught a glimpse of her in posts thus far, but she is always involved and critical to the 7Side process and its success. Thanks Alison!

Look for the results of the photo shoot for the Split Mirror, shown above, very soon.

On Location

I started the new year by revisiting a coffee table I had done for a local boat dealership. The piece has been sitting in their show room since I delivered it this past fall, but I hadn't had the chance to get descent photographs of it. Unfortunately that may still be the case.
Overcast skies, wind and freezing rain (yes in Orlando crazy I know) prevented us from venturing out to a remote location so we shot it right where it sat. The gumball machine and arcade games were a little distracting so I tried to focus and imagine myself in a different place.

In the near future I am going to look into hiring a professional photographer, but hopefully some major Photoshop work and a lot of luck will produce descent images for now. More on this table and other projects coming up soon!
