Announcing: Pose Well Studios

While it’s not a new venture for me I wanted to give my modeling and corporate photography its own portfolio.

I’m proud to announce my new site: Pose Well Studios.

POSE WELL - Jacksonville Fashion Photography, Headshots, Comp Cards, and Commercial Images by Agnes Lopez Photography
 
This site features my photographs of models, actors, musicians, businesspeople, and other personalities who come to me for headshots, comp cards, and advertisements. Over the past couple years I’ve photographed hundreds of models and actors, some just starting out and others who went on to work overseas and in television. I’ve also produced images for corporate annual reports and advertisements.

There just wasn’t enough room on my wedding photography blog to showcase all of the work I do during the week, in between weddings!So be sure to bookmark the Pose Well site and blog and contact me for headshots, comps, and promo images if you’re in the Northeast Florida region.

The New Agnes Lopez Photography!

It’s finally here!

As you can see I have a brand new logo and have updated my website with an all-new set of images for the front page.

And my new tag line:

Agnes Lopez Photography - Love & Luxury

A little while back I put together a shoot to replace the front of my website and here are some outtakes and shots that I didn’t choose for the front of the site — but still really liked anyway!

If you’re a regular reader of my blog you may remember the model, Kelsey. I shot her comp card and she was one of the models that took advantage of the location shoot. I was so impressed by her and I knew she would be perfect model for launching my brand new site!

Victoria Boyles from Salon d’Orsay did the killer hair and (as always) Jackie Neal did an awesome job with the make up.

Kelsey did an amazing job, as did Jackie and Victoria! Thanks again!

Engagement Shoot: Abi & Joseph

Abi and Joseph definitely did not want the typical engagement shoot! I was so excited when Abi came to me about her engagement shoot and pulled out pictures from fashion magazines and music videos. They were such a cool couple with so much style.

Simply Cinematic put together a wedding website for them and I think they did an incredible job. It looks like a movie trailer website. Here is a screenshot of the site: www.abijoe.com





I can’t wait for this wedding!

Wedding: Liz & Rob

Ceremony & Reception: Rob’s parents’ home Vilano Beach, FL
Other pictures: Castle Otttis.

Liz and Rob were married on the beach right at the bottom of the steps to Rob’s parents’ home in Vilano Beach, FL. After the ceremony we went over to Castle Otttis (yes, three Ts) and took some more photographs.

Back from San Francisco

I’m sorry if I’ve been hard to get in touch with lately. I just got back from a trip to San Francisco last week.

While I was there I had the opportunity to meet with the super-talented San Francisco-based Destination Wedding Photographer Gene Higa for one of his One-on-One Workshops. It was an amazing full day of business discussion and mentoring. Thanks so much, Gene!

I also got a chance to eat some great food, visit the Museum of Modern Art, see some family, and take some engagement pictures for my cousin and her fiance getting married next month in Las Vegas.

It was a little crazy near the hotel, the W San Francisco, because of the baseball all-star game activities. It was also cold — like in the 50s with wind. I wasn’t expecting that.

If you get the chance I highly recommend staying at the W in San Francisco. It has a Bliss Spa and Bliss beauty products in your room (I couldn’t help grabbing a few extra Bliss Face Wash bottles). It’s got a great lobby for hanging out in the evening and the upper-floor rooms have an awesome view of the Yerba Buena Gardens. They also have W-branded Chinese checkers and cool pillows…

Featured in the Jacksonville Business Journal

Minority women-owned businesses such as Agnes Lopez Photography are growing faster than others
“Minority women-owned businesses such as Agnes Lopez Photography are growing faster than others”

I did an interview with the Jacksonville Business Journal about my photography business a couple of weeks ago. The focus of the article was on the growth of minority women-owned businesses.

I’m so excited! I had no idea I would be on the cover and get a full page. Pick up a copy if you get a chance!

A link to the article is here but unfortunately the JBJ doesn’t have the whole article online.

Images from the Location Shoot

I held a Location Shoot on January 6, 2007 at the Seawalk Hotel in Jacksonville Beach for up-and-coming models looking to build their portfolios with pictures at an awesome location. I had the help of the amazing make-up artist Jackie Neal.

I know quite a few people were interested but couldn’t make the dates for the first shoot, so I’m planning the next one for some time in the near future. If you’re interested let me know by sending an email to me: agnes@agneslopez.com.

Here are some pictures of Kayla, one of the models who really did an awesome job in front of the camera for her first test shoot!




Agnes Lopez Photography in The Knot Magazine — AGAIN!

I’m so excited that my work was chosen to be featured in The Knot!

This is my second time making the cut for the print edition. Unfortunately getting into the magazine meant I couldn’t post the pictures until after it hit newsstands. That was tough!

Caryn & Glen were married in Crescent Beach, Florida. They came down from Washington, D.C. with a bunch of family and friends and had a beautiful ceremony on the beach under a silk-fabric chuppah. Music was provided by Rebecca Zapen & The Gary Starling Group.

They are my current Featured Wedding.

Glamour Shoots

Sometimes clients ask me to do a calendar shoot. They want to be a model for a day and take some pictures for their spouse or boyfriend.

It’s always a lot of fun and I think it’s a pretty cool and personal gift. So ladies, start thinking about those birthday and Valentine’s Day gifts for your special someone!



Back to work!

Sorry about the lack of updates. Agnes was on vacation last week in Italy (during all of the World Cup madness!) and decided to take a break from blogging — but not photography!

Here are some pictures from Venice, Milan, and Rome. The crazy people on scooters and hanging out of cars are some of the excited Romans after Italy beat Germany in the World Cup semifinals.
