Bruce the Murderer
My malicious dog Bruce (well, maybe not that bad) and his bin of ravaged, short-lived toys. This shoot is a couple years old but still worth sharing. After witnessing Bruce’s murdered toys pile up, I thought it would funny to do a little shoot and document the results in a series dubbed Bruce the Murderer… Read More
Bike Shoot, behind-the-scenes
Just a quick ‘behind-the-scenes’ shot of a bike shoot we wrapped up yesterday. This will be running in a national bike magazine in the coming months. More shots and tears sheets to follow. Setup here included 1200w from a single Profoto head with a medium umbrella, using the bright, afternoon sun in a cloudless sky as a 2nd light source. My 70-200mm lens did the trick,... Read More

This whole thing took couple hours, max. But the... Read More

Testing with Jamie
Jamie was in town for a few days, so we managed to hookup for a quick shoot. We met in Toronto for an editorial job awhile back and kept in touch since (to work with Jamie Hanson, you may contact her agency). My brother-in-law graciously loaned his condo for this impromptu shoot; with large floor-to-ceiling windows throughout, we used all natural light with a bit of fill flash... Read More
Audi S4 Shoot…from the vault
Here are some old shots from an editorial job I did awhile back for a national men’s magazine. The piece didn’t end up running, but I just came across these shots and will likely add them to my port. Check it out. …the car is a 2010 Audi S4, just released at the time. The model was with Ford Models, and the stylist and MUA were with Judy Inc., I believe. All images... Read More
Updated Portfolio

Not quite finished just yet, but check it out in the meantime! www.ameereehal.com Read More
