Behind-the-Scenes Video Footage

Every November for the last 8 years Melissa Banks, owner of Rapt in Maille handmade jewelry, comes to Audrey kelleR phoTography to shoot her new collections. As one of Audrey's longest standing commercial clients, we always look forward to working with her and seeing her new merchandise. Audrey even buys some every year and has a pretty good sized collection!

Audrey's work throughout the years can be seen on the Rapt in Maille website. Melissa has also uses the images for her promo cards and posters. Because of the many different uses, all of the images have the same background for a clean and consistent look across the line.

This year, we took some behind-the-scenes video footage so you can see what it is like to work with Audrey. Special thanks to our makeup artist Kelly Bush, photography assistant Dean Ponce and models Shelly Kaplan and Tamara Westfall for making the shoot a success. We had a great time!

Jenny's Break Into Modeling

From dancing to modeling, one might say she's a "Jenny of All Trades." Though she's currently an experienced Modern Jazz Dancer with Joel Hall Dance Center, Jenny wants to break into modeling and came to Audrey to show off her many talents.

Audrey chose to photograph Jenny in different looks throughout multiple locations within The Studio and surrounding building area. Audrey chose the industrial staircase with brick walls and steel tube railings to contrast the soft lines of the ballet poses. The freight elevator proved to be an interesting background for some of the fashion photos.

We were happy with the great variety of images, 4 outfit changes and 3 different makeup applications we were able to produce during the 3-hour session. We hope you enjoy the photos and we wish Jenny the best of luck in her search for agency representation!

Tina and Mark's Engagement

We had a great time photographing Tina and Mark's engagement session earlier this fall. After meeting them at their wedding consult, Audrey knew they were a great couple, but working with them proved how perfect they really are for each other.

Tina is a California girl and loves the beach. Audrey wanted to simulate a West Coast beach photo shoot locally in Chicago, so they headed to Northerly Island for some coastal scenery.

We're excited to work with their wedding planner Katie Goggin of Designer Event Chicago (www.designereventchicago.com) as their big day approaches. The wedding will be on September 4, 2010 so check back to the blog for more pictures of this awesome couple!
