One of my most satisfying photoshoots in 2008 was a photoshoot I did for the Greenville-based group Someone's Sister. I got a call from Georgia Winfree asking if I could do a concept shoot for their new CD. She put me in touch with her band-mate Katherine Jones and we took it from there. In our first conversation Katherine says something to the effect that she wants to do a shoot with a child playing in the road with a semi-truck barreling down on her. So of course I said, "Sure, no problem!"
It all went better than any of us could have expected. The band had it all planned out and even blocked off a rural road in Ayden NC. The weather cooperated and the sunset lighting was exquisite. I was assisted by my son Andy who is a rising star in photography in the Greenville NC area. Andy has some shots on the new Kelly Bell CD/DVD.
I did all of the editting from the road while I was in Boston. Katherine and I exchanged emails and images until we got it right.
I got to see the finished product when the CD debuted in October.
The CD cover is a tri-fold and the long image in the attached composite is the inside of the CD. The shot of the child is the cover & the shot with the band in the sky is the back cover. You can order a copy from CD Baby by clicking on the title of this blog.
