Baltimore-area guitarist Joe Stone came by the studio for a few portraits the other day. Joe is a fantastic local player, teacher and all-around great human being. Joe plays for the local bands "The Transporters" and "The Jennifers," and is a patient teacher of, among others, moi.

When I'm not doing headshots in my home studio, I'm sometimes about 100 feet away shooting portraits in the alley behind my house for a personal project.
A few months ago, the Baltimore Sun got wind of the project and decided to do a short video which is now live here: http://www.baltimoresun.com/bs-vid-dennis-drenner-baltimore-street-photographer-20151225-premiumvideo.html.

In a world of tweets, text messages and email, I really love the longer, in-person conversations I get to have during headshot shoots. Recently I've had all sorts of interesting folks in my studio, from businessmen coming out of retirement to start exciting new careers to lawyers working at the Supreme Court.

Olivia the opera singer graced the studio with her presence the other day. She needed a headshot ASAP for a school application, and we were fortunately able to get her in the studio the following day.
While we were shooting, her mom played me some of her lovely singing. I also learned during the shoot that Olivia will be studying engineering (!!) as well as voice, as she excitedly talked about a calculus class. Yes, calculus.
I would wish Olivia well with her future, but I'm pretty sure she doesn't need my help! Just glad I got …
