Hello Abby! Charlotte Photographer Derek Boston

This little girl gave Mom and Dad a big surprise by coming an entire week early.  Not only that, she surprised them by delivering within 2 hours of Mom going into labor!   Obviously she was overly ready for her first photo session.;)

SwimMAC Charlotte – USA Swimming – Charlotte Photographer Derek Boston

I had an amazing opportunity to photograph this event  for SwimMAC at the Mecklenburg Aquatic Club. Although I felt unbelieveably out of shape standing next to .5% body fat US Olympians I can not complain.  Shooting Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, Natalie Coughlin, and many other amazing US athletes with the access provided was a once in a lifetime thing and I soaked up every second of it.;)  The road to London 2012 swims through Charlotte and here are a few shots from the 3 night event.

My Team

I wanted to play around in the studio and keep my product photography skills tuned so I pulled out my arsenal and decided to create a team portrait of the equipment I use for weddings, sports, and portraits. If you have me scheduled for your upcoming wedding, these are the bad boys that will help to create your wedding portfolio.:)

CCHS Swim and Dive

This year I had the honor of providing team and individual images to the Charlotte Cathlic High School Swim and Dive Team.  As well as posed photos I took a few shots from their local swim meets. I also designed their parent Lanyards which was a great deal of fun and turned out nicely.  It was a great experience all around and I thought I would share a few from the year.

An up and coming model named Brian came over to the studio today to snap a few updated headshots.
Definitely a succesful bit of work I would say. (and yes I was having some fun with the Nike logo too) :)
