Tennis Photo Shoot…
A couple weeks ago my rock star producer and I pulled together the idea to shoot some amazing tennis pros at a set of local indoor tennis courts with some pretty dramatic lighting setups. We cast tennis stars Ryan Meyer and Kara Hussey, pulled our creative and tech teams together to shoot last week. We scheduled this personal shoot in the dead of winter here in the Midwest to give us something to not only sharpen our creative swords, but to also try some new lighting setups.
Thanks much to all of our team and Five Seasons Sports Fitness Club's team for all their efforts to make this shoot a success!
More of the final images can be viewed in the portfolio section of my website at http://ricklohre.com
For now here's a few of my favorite takes from the day and a couple behind the scenes shots. And yes, I took several tennis balls to the body during the shoot! This isn't the powder puff leagues after all!!!

Yippee! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Just wanted to share a little holiday excitement! Here's a quick take from a recent shoot with my good homies from FanMail Marketing and their sister company HyperDrive Interactive.
Murray gives me a thumbs up hoping we've made the "good list".
Cover Shot…
Recent cover/article photography for Music Inc. Magazine.
I had the opportunity to work with Music Inc's Andy Williams to shoot the cover of their latest issue featuring NAMM's new chairman and Willis Music CEO - Kevin Cranley.
Working with Kevin and Andy on the shot was a blast. Big thanks to Kevin all the folks at Music Inc.
Canon / Photo District News Advertisement…
An oops confuses this photographer...for a moment.
When I received my latest issue of PDN (Photo District News) I quickly thumbed through as I arrived at my desk at the studio.
I came across a Canon ad, my fav camera brand by the way
only to see an ad which didn't seem to make sense. See the first image of the series. I thought to myself, "Wow that's weird, Canon is promoting 'Document Photography'?".
After I returned from a client meeting and reviewed the mag again, I found what had happened...Can you say "Ooops!" Just something I thought funny and wanted to share ![]()
Wonder if they all went out that way?
The visuals I encountered below:
