Kadeem (Portrait Photography)

Some portraits I did recently with model Kadeem Samuel in my studio. This was a fun, somewhat experimental shoot as I wanted to play around with a cool mask I found online. It’s a small accessory, but the mask gives the photographs a bit more character and creates an interesting narrative. Who is this masked man?

I used the Sony A7RV with the Sigma 105mm f/1.4 DG HSM ART during this session and find it a winning combination. The A7RV has been a revelation, especially coming from the Fuji GFX 100 II. Although medium format does have the edge in terms of image quality and rendering, the A7RV produces a beautiful, detailed image with greater versatility and a much more fun shooting experience.

There are so many great options from this session so I’ll be sharing more in the future. I’m trying to be more economical when I shoot and what images I ultimately decide to post. But it’s time to start posting more work. Less chitter chatter.

More to come!
