Rough week....

Been awhile since I have posted and I apologize. I was really busy editing pics from a couple weddings and dealing with the day to day stuff of life. This past week we lost my little sisters husband and we have been spending a lot of time with her and her kids helping them with funeral details and the everyday stuff that just seems like its going to swallow you up when you are going thru the loss of a loved one. BUT I think things are close to being back on track again.
I have been asked to give a workshop on outdoor portrait photography in a couple weekends for a local photography club. The next day I am going to do a portrait mini session to try and find new clients.
I hope to update this blog a little more now..as a friend so cleverly put on his blog "Updated daily, 60% of the time!" lol....

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.
