Wilson Family Photos



Here is our very first wedding sample photoshoot video ever. Please comment and leave us some feed back.

Thanks
-Andy



Here's a poster design we recently finished for North Cleveland Church of God and Terran of 22Visionz.








Last night I photographed the amazingly talented Nami from Cleveland, TN. She's a young mother of two and an amazing rapper...... What? Yes, she is a rapper and she's good at what she does. During the photo shoot Nami opened up about her music and her life and was an amzing couple of hours to learn more about her and her music and where it all comes from.
As you can see if Rapping doesn't work out for her you'll see her in the modeling world.
Thanks

This evening I photographed a good friend of mine and her wonderful two children. They are a great family and I look forward to sharing the studio session with you. It's unfortunate that her husband, Chester couldn't make the shoot.

Thanks

This past weekend I photographed the wedding of Nevine and Thomas in Cleveland, TN. It was a fun wedding. I brought along a fellow photographer to show him how to photograph weddings and to shoot some video for our preview film.

Enjoy the photos

Thanks

Before you go any further, let me give you fair warning - there isnothing to buy here.

I just want to share a video that I just found.If you have ever felt down, depressed, overwhelmed, doubting yourself...watch this video. Then, save the address some where so you can watch it again whenever you need a lift.

Thanks

Fun With Lights








Today was an amazing day with my children. While my son was off to daycare my other two children were home keeping me busy.

When my youngest fell asleep for her nap I took my daughter aside for some fun and crazy headshots. As you can see she is not afraid of the camera.

It amazes me how care-free spirit she is. She makes me laugh, cry and upset at times. I wouldn't trade her for the world. She brings me so much happiness whenever she smiles and gives me her never-ending hugs and pure love. I don't know what I would do without her.

Enjoy the photos

God will make a way


Proverbs 3:6

"In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. "

God will make a way,
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way,
He will make a way.
By a roadway in the wilderness,
He'll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His Word will still remain
He will do something new today.
God will make a way,
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way,
He will make a way

We have been asked time and time again to teach photographers how we photograph certain subjects. We played around the idea of a photoclub. Which we run on a monthly basis.

We also have been asked by many people how we photograph from people not in Tennessee. So we will be creating some how to videos of our adventures with many of our clients.

Not only will they be posted here on our blog, but also many of the more technical teaching videos will be available for sale through our online shopping cart.

We will also be creating some how to videos with Photoshop, Lightroom and other programs we use for workflow, editing, special effects and turnaround.

Stay tuned in very soon for the videos.

Thanks

Most of you know that I am almost 100% natural light. I use occasional reflectors to remove shadows. I also use an on-camera flash from time to time at wedding receptions.

Well... I've been asked more times than not if I have the ability to photograph large indoor groups or studio type portraits. I've weighed the cost and options and I've even borrowed some other photographer's lights from time to time.

I ordered the lights last week and I just recieved them yesterday. I've played around with them enough to know they are a vaulable asset to creating some amazing images. It's not that I haven't used them before. I just haven't had a big enough need from clients to use them as much.

We love light!!! As photographer's know... Light can either make or break a photo. It can also mean the difference between an ok photo and a moment captured in time forever that someone will remember forever. Good light can make a sale or break your clients confidence in your abilities as a profesional photographer. Sometimes lights are not necessary but other times light modifiers are.

We will be going on location with our model search and creating some videos so you can see the difference that light makes. What type of lights we want to use as well as how to set up and create some fun images.

I am on the look-out for some test models to create some very high end on lacation and studio shots for some amazing images and video tutorials.

Email me at andrew@visionstudiosphotography.com if you're interested in a free photo-shoot. And I will be posting them here.

I look forward to hearing from all of you.

Thanks

The couple brought me to Chattanooga's Single Mountain to shoot their engagement session. We had a blast. The light was gorgeous and the couple was super fun and relaxed. I really do love shooting engagement photos... it's just a great chance to let the couple get used to my pace and style of shooting, plus they get to know me a bit as a person and it makes the wedding day go so much smoother.

I am looking forward to being a part of their wedding day this coming december.


Thanks

Questions and Answers

I've had some really good questions today reguarding my new blog.

So here are some of the answers.

Yes I will be postiong all of my Lee University Work HERE.

My blog was getting so much sports postings that that people thought I didn't shoot weddings any more. We still photograph wedddings, portraits, models, children, pets, events, engagements, parties, landscapes, wildlife, etc... Just easier to have a seperate blog.

Thanks
-Andy

Am I becoming one of those people?
(Don’t answer that.)

I now have…two…blogs.The new blog is called “Lee Sports Photos”, and it’s a photoblog I’m doing as part of my job over with Lee University. I was fortunate that my previous blog at Vision Studios Photography was read by the Lee University folks, and when they brought me on board one of the things they wanted me to establish was a similar presence.“Lee Sports Photos” will, of course, be solely focused on the Lee Flames. I hope to share behind-the-scenes images as well as game photos.

Thanks
-Andy

We're in the process of reinstalling the whole site and starting over. This will take time to get everyones photos up and in their categories. But it will happen... Soon.

Thanks everyone for your patience.

This past week has been really crazy busy with all the spots we shoot for Lee Uiniversity and our Online Shopping Cart being down at the moment.

The Bridal Expo was an absolute fun time. I met so many newly engaged couples it was amazing. I also met some really nice vendors there as well.

Many people thought it was going to be small and not a very big turn out. It was my first time actually advertising our photography to the community other than word of mouth.... I was completely amazed at the amount of people that showed up and registered and came by our table.

I was so caught of guard that maybe I didn't bring enough packages with me or wedding specials.
but once the smoke settled down I had just enough for everyone that came by.

I had such an amazing time that I know we will be doing this again.

I would like to thank each and everyone that came by our table. If you have any questions please don't heitate to call or email.

Thanks
-Andy
