These portraits were taking Sunday night, August 29th; outside of Beauty Bar in Chicago. Only available street light was used. All portraits were shot with the Canon 5D, with an old Nikon 35mm manual prime lens at 1250 ISO, F 2.
As you may know I have been aggressively breaking out the inner photographer that I have had locked in the closet for a while. I have been lucky that I have had the opportunity to shoot a lot these days both stills and moving images. Last summer I did the Summer Intensive Program in Cinematography to bring me up to speed from the MFA that I did 2,000 years ago. I am slated for a lot more shooting this year and want to extend myself to do more. If you are an actor/model and are looking for head shots, or an actor looking to shoot an actors reel or video monologue for your website, or you are a musician and need an amazing music video; holler at your boy. Right now I am really reasonable. I need to stress that right now part
Reach out to me at shawn@rebelsoulmusic.com and let’s talk art and commerce. I’m soooo ready when you are. below are some of my earlier projects that have been edited. I wish I could show you more recent work as I think the newer stuff shows tremendous growth…but its not ready yet.

I shot this video with director Terence Nance on the Canon 7D the day after I bought it. Came out okay and I had a lot of fun but if would look even more bananas if I knew what I know now about that camera system. We shot with mostly natural light and bounce for interiors we used a few china balls with 250 Watt household lights. We also used this home made camera rig made from Home Depot parts that turned out to be fun to use. We shot over several weeks on random days, shooting when we could. Just copped a 5D as well; looking forward to rocking more with that. Check it out and let me know what you think.
