Miki Berg Reume Onstage, Onsceen and Online

We had the pleasure of taking Miki Berg Reume's headshots years ago back when she was a full time Radio City Rockette.

 She was one of our very first clients back in Astoria and even though Jason can't resist shouting disclaimers regarding pictures taken way back then, I think we got a beautiful shot if I do say so myself. :)

Well since then this beautiful and talented lady has married and has become the spokesperson for
Christian Mingle

where she met her future husband! She appears frequently in their commercials so be on the lookout. Also if you are single and Christian, it seems like a really great site to find successful relationships!

Capturing Nicholas Novak

We had a great photo session with singer, dancer and actor Nichols Novak last week. Caught the last bit of warm weather before things got crazy cold. Don't worry studio shots are available all winter so please check out Jason Campbell Photography for details!

Capturing Kyle Harris

I wanted to give Kyle Harris a shout out this weekend because he is making his prime-time television debut on
The Carrie Diaries 
which premieres Monday Jan 14th at 8pm on the CW.

We had the pleasure of taking this talented young gentleman's photos a few years back and it is so nice to see his career continue to take off! Set your DVR's for the prequel to Sex and the City where Kyle plays one of the "it" boys in Carrie's circle of friends. I was a huge fan of the series, and even though Carrie Diaries is geared towards a younger demographic (ahem ahem) I am intrigued to see what Carrie was up to in her early days.

Papa's New Home-By Jessica Curtis

I am always incredibly impressed when I see my friends take matters into their own hands, think outside the box, and creating something from nothing. That's the definition of creativity right?   

The Webster definition is:

"The use of the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work."

Ooh that's pretty. Let's go with that.

Today's feature friend? Newly published author, Jessica Lynne Curtis.  Last spring we had the honor and pleasure of taking her photograph for the interior of the children's book she has written.  

The title of the book is "Papa's New Home", and it is a perfect story to give hope for a child experiencing the loss of a loved one. 

My friend, power blogger Kristy Glass, interviewed Jessica about the book, and the inspiration behind it.  Check out her post here.  I adored Papa's New Home. Whatever your faith is, the book's essence is purely about love, family and hope. 

As you can see I was quite moved, especially having recently gone through a loss myself.  My only complaint is that it was hard to read with tears welled up in my eyes!  So my advice is, if you purchase this book to help a child dealing with a loss, (which I strongly recommend you do) read it through so you can thoroughly experience the emotions you may have first!

You can purchase the book at Barnes and Noble or Amazon.

Satirical Boudoir

Jason Campbell Photography is back up and running with a really fun photo shoot that goes into the category of  "satirical boudoir".  My girl Shannon along with my brilliant vocal coach Andrew Byrne have created a hilarious cabaret telling stories of her sordid dating life in NYC. Think Sex and The City meets music sung by Julie Andrews and Heart. I know you are already intrigued. We wanted to create a scene where a classy girl just looking for love in all the wrong places finds herself stuck in the most ridiculous and maybe not so classy environment. These are a few examples of the results. I don't think I have laughed so hard doing a photoshoot ever.

I also saw Chaplin the musical this week 

and instead of trying to analyze it with my own words I will direct you to

 this review 

by Scott Brown which pretty much sums it up perfectly.

I have been cooking a lot and getting really excited about creativity in the kitchen! Just in time to make a Canadian Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow for my Canadian husband that I am very thankful for. ;)

CD Cover

Jason Campbell Photography is on somewhat of a hiatus at the moment but he dusted off his camera to take some very cool pictures of a certain soprano. He did such an amazing job as always so she is having a hard time deciding which one should be her cover/flipside/cd imprint. If anyone who may be possibly reading this has any input she would surely appreciate it! She thanks you in advance for your time!

 This is the idea with text:

Adriana Lomysh Campbell Photography?

Jason is definitely the photographer Campbell, but I did a really quick photo shoot of the amazing Kent dancers the other night after our show. As you can see, they are quite the easy subjects to photograph so my job was a piece of cake. But considering I had a basic camera and we took pictures for only about 30minutes or so, I was really happy with the publicity shot we chose in the end.
