UNICORNS in the RAD

As an artist and photographer, I cherish the moments that allow me to infuse my work with a piece of myself and connect with those drawn to it. Recently, a chance encounter with a beautiful black family outside my studio brought me an unexpected and much-needed source of joy.

At that moment, I was reminded of the wise words of Joseph Pearson, who encouraged me to "be myself" and to put my whole self into my work. It was a feeling that came naturally as I stepped outside for some sunlight and noticed the family passing by.

As fate would have it, I had just decided to display a piece of art that I typically keep hidden, featuring Biggie Smalls. Despite the potential for different interpretations by different cultures, I felt a strong urge to share it with this family.

And as luck would have it, the family turned the corner and noticed the piece and their pure joy and excitement were exactly what my soul needed in that moment. It was a meaningful connection that I crave and one that reminded me of the power of art to bridge gaps and bring people together. I told them how I saw them and put the piece out there and we all laughed at how timing and fate work well together.

So, to the universe, I say thank you for sending the Unicorns of the RAD my way. Their visit was truly magical and much needed, and I am grateful for the reminder always to be myself and to put my whole self into my work.

Damkianna: The Enchanting Being That Graced My Studio

Recently, I had the pleasure of working with Damkianna, a captivating being whose alluring beauty left me in awe. The session was for her promos for shows she held at SXSW, and I was thrilled to be entrusted with bringing her vision to life.

From the moment she walked into my studio, I knew that this was going to be a special shoot. Her delicate features, radiant skin, and flowing hair gave her an almost magical quality, and I felt both honored and challenged to capture her essence on film.

As we worked together, I found myself constantly mesmerized by Damkianna's poise and grace. She moved with a fluidity and elegance that seemed almost otherworldly, and her eyes held a depth and wisdom that belied her youthful appearance.

Despite the unique challenges of working with such an extraordinary subject, I was delighted with the final results of our shoot. Through careful lighting, framing, and editing, I was able to create a series of images that showcased Damkianna's beauty in all its enchanting, captivating glory.

As a photographer, I feel incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Damkianna. Her presence in my studio was a reminder of the incredible diversity and richness of the world we live in, and of the endless creative possibilities that lie within it.

If you're interested in working with me for your photography needs, please feel free to contact me at 610-809-1600 or visit my website at Micahmack.com. I'm always excited to collaborate with new clients and explore new creative horizons, and I'm happy to travel for my photography gigs.

5 Tips for Perfecting Your Dance Photography in the Studio

1, Use a fast shutter speed: To freeze the dancers' movements, use a fast shutter speed of at least 1/500th of a second. This will help you capture sharp and crisp images of the dancers in motion.

2. Pay attention to lighting: Good lighting is essential for dance photography. Use soft and diffused lighting to create a gentle and flattering effect on the dancers. If you want to create dramatic effects, use harsh lighting to highlight specific areas of the dancer's body.

3. Choose the right lens: The right lens is crucial for capturing dance photography. Use a wide-angle lens to capture the dancers' movements in the studio, or a zoom lens to focus on specific details of the dancers' bodies.

4. Experiment with angles: Try different angles to add depth and dimension to your photos. Capture shots from low angles or high angles, and experiment with different perspectives to create a unique and engaging composition.

5. Direct the dancers: As the photographer, you are responsible for directing the dancers during the photoshoot. Give them clear instructions on how to pose and move, and encourage them to express their emotions through their movements. This will help you capture authentic and powerful images that tell a story.

Remember that as the photographer, you have the artistic freedom to make decisions about how to capture the dancers in your studio. Don't be afraid to experiment with different angles, lighting, and composition to create unique and compelling images. At the same time, be open to the dancers' ideas and movements, and work together to create images that truly capture the essence of their performance. With a collaborative and creative approach, you can create stunning and meaningful dance photos that both you and your subjects will love. So go ahead, give yourself permission to make artistic decisions and bring your vision to life!
