This is the NX Level Entertainment Troupe based here in Durham, NC. They are a very talented and versatile group of student performers led by Rasheed Johnson. Shooting this group was a nice change for Sarah and I. We often photograph large groups of people with wedding and event photography, but never one quite like this. They have a lot of character and most of them know how to work the camera.
They needed some fresh photography for their website and publications… so they contacted 2and3.
We ended up shooting into the night with one of the hardest shoots we’ve done. Once the sun set, I could barely see the subjects through the lens of the camera accept for the momentary bursts of light from the strobes. In the end we got it done with nearly 650 images including head-shots of each of the models. Here is a small sampling of their photo shoot…
