Inclement Weather Photography

All photographers heave dealt with the inconvenience of rainstorms ruining their outdoor shoot, especially during a Florida summer. Even when you keep a close eye on the forecast there is no guarantee of long-lasting sunshine, and gray clouds could roll in any time to steal your light and soak you and your subjects.

As Tampa residents, our staff is all too familiar with freak showers and mud patches. We even had to deal with some during the grand opening event  at our location in Carrollwood last weekend. We pulled out all the stops (and canopy tents) to ensure everyone still had a great time and captured great images, and we want you to be able to do the same.

The best photographers see a change in scenery as an opportunity to capture new and unexpected images. Rain inspires a range of emotions from childlike glee to somber reflection. The people and scenery captured on a rainy day can provide a nice break from the usual sunny smiles sought in most outdoor photo sessions, but you have to know how to make the most of the occasion.

Kalon: The Launch Party

This past Saturday was Kalon’s grand opening and launch party at our location in Northdale and we had a blast hanging out with everyone who came. We’re grateful to all of the vendors who set up shop and shared their wares with us and are excited about the new potential partners from the area who stopped by to meet us. Our talented balloon/facepaint artist Brandi Velasco created some inflatable masterpieces and turned our guests into Dia de Los Muertos sugar skulls.
