Pre Bar Mitzvah sports themed photo shoot. Image was printed 8 feet wide, backlit on plexiglass and hung above the bar. Photo © Tripp Street Studio 2013

Having just put a new roof on the barn, we thought we’d add another post showing some of the work we do out there. It’s not just girls who want pre Bat Mitzvah photos, the boys get into it as well. More and more, we see these photos as decor at the events and sometimes they’re projected as loops on screens during the parties. We recently made some 4 x 6 feet prints that were face mounted on plexi. They looked pretty incredible and should last a lifetime. The shoots aren’t all about sports. We photographed a boy who’s party had a carnival theme. He had a blast with the concept, and so did we.  We storyboarded the ideas, shot them in the barn and added type after the shoot. We then had large banners created that were displayed at the party.

It’s pouring out today, but it’s dry as can be in the barn where we’re going to set up a new shoot this afternoon. The property here on Tripp Street is pretty nice too, so we often find ourselves doing less stylized, more natural photos on the grounds.
