We have recently concluded that it's best to not bake festive treats from bags with obscure labels... May magic and surprise abound this special day! Happy Holidays from the Winton-Stahle Team!
The Latest Cover for Boomer Magazine
Here's the newest cover for "Boomer Magazine" by Winton-Stahle Photography. A complete photo-composite created from 10 separate studio images of the ladies and gentlemen featured in the article. This image was created to showcase the magazine's annual "IT" list, which features the top 10 people in Richmond, voted by the public, as being the movers & shakers of the community that are truly making a difference.
Very special thanks to all of those involved, to our fabulous team and to the Boomer Mag crew!

All good things must come to an end.
We're picking up TWO CRATES of photography from Christopher Winton-Stahle's exhibit at the Virginia Museum of Fine Art in Richmond, VA tomorrow! This is the "China Now" exhibit that has been touring Virginia since 2006! It's been a long run and five fabulous years of life for this show out on the road but all good things must come to an end. HOWEVER, we're working on booking the show as early as Spring 2012 and have interested galleries and museums in Virginia, North Carolina and Texas! It'll be very exciting to see what happens! We'll keep you posted!
Meanwhile, we'll have two large crates of 30 large photographs sitting in our office floor...

Farewell to a Respected Richmond Rocker.
We were sad to hear that lead guitarist of Gwar, “Cory Smoot (Flattus Maximus)” passed away yesterday while on tour with the band. Our company has worked with Gwar several times over the last few years on various music projects and in each of those occasions it has been a true gift to be a part of their creative process and life passion. They are a fantastic group of guys that we admire for doing their own thing and living out their dream. Though our experiences with Cory have been limited to the handful of times we've worked with the band, we are still saddened that the music industry has lost a talented artist and that Richmond, Virginia has lost one of its most respected rockers. Our thoughts and condolences go out to the band, friends, family and fans of Gwar during this difficult time. We will have very fond memories of Cory and of the wonderful energy he brought to our photo shoots.
Happy Scary Day !
In this new holiday photo we have an"Exclusive Sneak Peak" into a therapy session for troubled and otherwise misunderstood icons of horror,terror and fear." Truth is folks, things are just never quite the way we're made to believe they are... Like so many others, these guys are working through their own problems and need a shoulder to cry on from time to time. This Halloween, lets say a little prayer for all the ghouls in need...
Happy Halloween from Winton-Stahle Photography !

What a Trip...
1,684 miles traveled by car, 7 states, 1 hurricane, a little flooding, a little rescheduling, 42 beautiful dancers, a bit of hot fashion, a near miss with Elton John, a delightfully unexpected family reunion, beautiful scenery through the Appalachian Mountains, one amazing wedding, a smorgasbord of incredible friends & family, several epic conversations regarding the universal law of attraction and a few delightfully satisfied clients. One overwhelming conclusion that LIFE IS GOOD... Yes my friends, the last two weeks have been quite an amazing trip! Thank you to all that have been involved! You know who you are. Love all you guys!
Heading off to New York soon.
Looking forward to leaving for a week in Saratoga Springs, NY to hang with and photograph all the lovely dancers! I must say, I really do enjoy working with them! There's just something about the energy, the honesty and the raw emotion of experiencing a performance this closely. When I'm connected to a dancer behind the camera I feel their energy, I follow their movement and I dance along with them. It almost becomes a spiritual experience for me and each shoot becomes a special moment shared between myself and that dancer. Here's a new image that will be featured in my dance collection coming soon. Excited to be doing more of this!

New Music Mailer Shipping out this September
Winton-Stahle Photography has a NEW music / entertainment mailer shipping out to record labels this September and we're very excited to announce that soon we will be updating our website and launching a brand new portfolio for "Music"
On the front of this new 5x7" mailer we're featuring a new image from a marketing series we're working on for Boston based hip hop artist, Jihad Scudder of K.R.A.S.H. Entertainment. On the back are three previously commissioned images. The first is of Chad Hugo of the "Neptunes" and "N.E.R.D." that was made for an article featured in Revolver Magazine. The second is marketing image made for rockband "GWAR", and the third is Randy Blythe, lead vocalist for "Lamb of God".
We will also be launching a new portfolio for "dance and movement". These two new subjects will become new specialized fields of focus that we'll be pursuing and we're very excited to be finding our calling, our people in the industry and our pursuit of this specialized work.
Look for more to come soon!

Revealed! Behind the scenes of post-production.
It's sometimes a mystery what happens between the time of shooting images for a photo-composite and the final product that is created. See a little bit here of what happens between the time after I make a set of images for a project and deliver a final image...
Here's the final image as it was delivered.
