Another day! :)

So we are off today to celebrate two of my nephews birthdays at Montgomery Farms, click here for info
While we are there we are going to do our Christmas card pictures, I am wondering how many weird looks I will get from the point and shooters when I pull out my strobist gear. Jeannie is making me take it easy on gear for this shot, I am only bringing my camera and tripod, a 24" softbox and two hotshoe flashes.
My sisters and their kids will be there so I will probably get suckered into taking some portraits of them while I am at it...

Berna/Cole wedding

Another wonderful wedding! Even tho we got a late start on pictures and the weather didnt cooperate we still managed to get some great images and document the day. Another great and fun couple!. Here are a few pics from the wedding...

I have been watching some videos.....

A lot of videos actually, lol. And the one thing they all hit on is defining who you are as a photographer. To look at your images and see if you can tell what makes your images special. So I did just that. I took some time to look at my images and see what my style is and see if I could point to the things that make my images unique. Here is what I came up with. 1. I like to keep my images simple. I don't like cluttered backgrounds. 2. I dislike blown out skies so I use flash a lot out doors. 3. I dislike using textures and selective coloring. I want my images to stand out on their own with out a lot of effects. 4. I love black and whites & vignettes. 5. I shoot a lot in portrait orientation, probably 90% of the time. 6. I dislike shooting with a tilt. 7. I like my images to be contrasty. 8. I like longer focal lengths, I use my 85mm 1.8 a lot for portraits and here recently I have been using my 70-210mm f4 a lot. 9. I love shooting portraits wide open, especiall...

Its crazy...

I know this is supposed to be my photography blog, but I have been to pre occupied with the loss of my bestest pal to do much shooting. Today I was out in the yard with Bella, our other chihuahua, and the neighbors came out and asked about Charlie.  They were upset that he didn't make it. They told me how he made their day when he was outside and would bark at them.
