First Holy Communion

in , ,

I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph some awesome (and adorable) kids at their first holy communion. It was at St. John Nepomucene in Manhattan. It is only a few blocks away from where I live so it was also very convenient. It was a beautiful day outside & the kids did  wonderfully! They really looked like they were having fun! They were all dressed up in their dresses and suits! It was a really fun day! Congratulations to all of them! 

Republic of Fritz Hansen

I recently photographed this awesome event for Fritz Hansen at their showroom in Soho. I was able to capture a ton of great photos of their pieces as well as people enjoying themselves at the event. Jaime Hayon, one of the designers was so nice, I even had a chance to talk to him!

Headshots in NYC

in

This past week I did some headshots for someone with the same name as me. She does pronounce it a little differently, but not very often do I find someone with the same spelling. Our plan was to go to central park, but it was one of those extremely cold days; So we decided to find a warmer place to shoot. We found a public building near by and got some great shots! I love the photos and think they came out great!

Fashion Photography Workshop

I just wanted to post a link to the new class I am teaching.  I will take you behind the scenes of the world of fashion photography.  It's going to be a lot of fun! 

Here's the description: 

Fashion Photography

By Shana Schnur


Get behind the lens! When you open the pages of your favorite magazine, did you ever want to be a fashion photographer? Did you ever sit there as you turn the pages and wonder how these scenes get put together? Well... Now is your chance to learn about how these beautiful photos come to life! Fashion Photography is not just about pretty clothing or pretty models... In this workshop we will cover Fashion Photography, and as much of what it means to be a fashion photographer as time will allow. We will discuss topics including finding a model and, creating cohesive concepts for the shoot, creating a scene through lighting, posing, backgrounds, and general setup. You will additionally have a chance to photograph a professional model and learn about the whole experience from NYC Fashion Photographer Shana Schnur. Once we’re ready, we will have a fashion model pose for us so we can demonstrate the different types of lighting we can use, as well as give us the opportunity to practice setting up a real photo shoot and experimenting with props and themes. We will take you behind the scenes of the world of fashion, discussing the ins and outs of fashion and the business. Bring plenty of questions to ask!

Join Shana’s Fashion Photography Workshop on Sunday, August 18, 2013 from 3:30 - 6:30 pm. For more details and to RSVP, follow this link: http://www.meetup.com/NYCDPW/events/132097012/?a=ea1_grp&rv=ea1 We look forward to seeing you there!

Headshots

Here are some photos I took of Yoon Kim.  I was lucky enough to be able to photograph him in his amazing penthouse in SoHo. I even got to meet his adorable dog, Mochi, a beautiful Shiba Inu!  The day I photographed him was the day of the St. Patrick's day parade; It was a lot of fun seeing the all the people in green on the way to the shoot. It even started snowing! Luckily the shoot was inside and we didn't have to worry about the weather.
