GRONK TIME: NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS ROB GRONKOWSKI PHOTOSHOOT

As the football season kicked off, the Indresano team was excited to kick off a new project with New England Patriots Rob ‘Gronk’ Gronkowski for his latest brand partnership with Brookstone- the GronkBall!

If you’re sad you missed it, don’t worry! We captured some behind the scenes shots of the fun football filled day so you can relive it with us.

As usual, Michael was completely focused on getting the shot just right.

Even Rob Gronkowski needs a little wardrobe styling! Thankfully Coleen from TEAM Artists was on hand to make everything perfectly camera ready. 🙂

Gronk came prepared with many poses and was working the camera the whole shoot. Here’s a little sneak peak at one our personal favorite faces from the Patriots player!

Gronkowski screams summer ready in this shot. We would love to have a day at the beach with the fun and lovable Gronk!

As the team reviewed the shots, Patriots player Gronkowski just had to test his new product. Can you guess who Gronk was playing catch with on set?

If you guessed our Production Coordinator Shannon then you were correct! She couldn’t pass up the chance to play catch with the all-star New England Patriots tight end!

FESTIVE FANS: MODEL AND APPAREL PHOTOSHOOT

Santa knows what the Indresano team loves- a jam-packed day of apparel and model photography! This festive shoot for the winter was certainly full of excitement- and lots of fun lights! Check out some behind the scenes of shots like this one below:

With a shoot like this, more variety is better! We had a set builder design and construct two 8 foot by 8-foot backgrounds to use during the shoot.

The builder carefully burned one background to provide a unique texture and rustic feel to the set.

After we set up the backgrounds, our set stylist went to work making them into fully decked out environments- down to the last plant arrangement. 🙂

We started the day out without models, and so for the apparel shots we got in a bit closer to really play with the props and lighting.

Looks like Raider’s fans are getting a little more than coal in their stocking this year! It was so much fun to play with the textures in this shot.

As they say, a good wardrobe stylist always bring 3 times as much as you need! With racks lining the entire hall, that was definitely the case for this shoot.

As we started working with the models, everyone had to make sure the composition of the shot looked correct. The downtime, while everyone is reviewing, is the perfect time for a quick makeup check!

After a quick touch up, the models are back on set and getting playful to show off the products.

Our prop stylist worked to carefully wrap the lights around a skull for one of the more intricate hero shots of the day.

The final result of the skull looked perfect, and our model helped create the perfect frame for the shot.

CHILLIN’ WITH CARBONITE

If your first thought is Star Wars when you hear the word Carbonite, you are not alone. What this company offers, however, isn’t in the stars, but rather in the cloud. Founded in 2005, Carbonite is a high tech company that provides cloud backup and storage services to clients across the globe. In recent years, they have since expanded to become one of the leading online data backup providers in the world. But that has not made them take themselves too seriously. From a life size Yoda statue to silhouettes of Darth Vadar, this 50,000 square foot office screams fun!

Michael and the team photographed over a dozen top execs from Carbonite. Shooting was a breeze as we set up using our latest ultra high pixel-count camera addition to the family (more about that at a later point). Michael has also invested into using the latest technology in lighting and you can see in some of the shots below the lights are all LED – no more hot lights and sweaty sets! This was a COOL shoot in more ways than one.
