Fox News Brit Hume Retirement Party

We had the good fortune to photograph the Brit Hume retirement party last Thursday at Café Milano in old Georgetown. Thanks Stewart Davis.
I’ll see about sharing a few of the images we shot for Fox. Two of my favorites were done with the ambient light, one of Brian Williams and the other of Bo Derek by candlelight.

The hot spot Café Milano was packed tight with politicians, leaders from the George Bush administration, media people from the various networks and even a Hollywood legend.

It was really funny to see my name on the guest list sandwiched between congresswoman Jane Harman and others H's.

Below is a partial list of attendees who toasted Brit as he enters semi-retirement or perhaps simply a restructuring of his career to allow a new balancing of the priorities in life.

The Edge Photography Studio Lighting Workshop

The Edge Photography Studio Lighting Workshop

We had a great time teaching our latest 2-day studio lighting workshop. Our students told us they were exhausted after working with the models and us. We covered lots of different aspects of studio photography including children to still-life set-ups. Even paint with light. Lots of lighting setups!
Here are some fun pictures from the weekend, plus a couple of serious images from two of our students Heather Clarke & Jon Miles. Thanks for letting us share these Jon & Heather! Heather is one of our repeat offenders having attended our Richard Warren workshop last November.

Our next workshop is next month and is a classic studio nude session for photographers.

We are located in Northern Virginia. and serve Maryland, Washington, D.C. plus the mid-Atlantic states from our studio located in historic Leesburg, Loudoun County Virginia. Call us about your portraits including boudoir “For His Eyes Only”, or maternity portrait sessions. Oh we also photograph weddings, bar mitzvah, or other photographic projects.
