Today I did some location scouting for a wedding coming up in a couple weeks at the Paint Creek Country Club. This place is beautiful and I already saw about 30 shots that I want to capture at this wedding. Here's a snapshot that I captured with my new Kodak video camera. I loved the way the clouds were in the sky today and it really made the windows pop.
My dog Sparkie turns 11 years old today. In dog years that's kinda old, but she's one of my best friends. She's laying on the floor right next to me as I type this and it's comforting to know that she's there. Starting to show her age with the amount of time it takes her to get up the stairs. She has moments of spunkiness when we play catch, but she doesn't last as long as she used to. I call her Sparkie the wonder mutt, because that's what she is.
The dust in the air is actually from the road. The county doesn't seem to have the budget to spray down the road to keep the dust down this year. Makes for some great photos though.
This is a piece that I hope will go on my client's wall. When we took this shot I told them that it may not come out because the location that I had to shoot from was not ideal. When I reviewed this shot I was not entirely happy with it at first. Once I removed the color I started to like it more and more. I like how the bridge leads your eye to the couple standing there. What do you think?
A Saturday at my brother's house was a fantastic day for practicing. Wedding season is about to start and I feel like I'm starting to get on my game. I'm ready for it. I'm in the zone and I love it. Here's a quick photo I snapped at the height of the sun. I trusted my instincts and shot using the shadow of her hat and I love love love this shot of my daughter.
My daughter sliding backwards. Had a lot of fun practice photographing my family at the bbq.
Took the camera into Eva's yesterday while introducing the awesomeness of this place to my brother's family. Yes, I said awesomeness.
Get a free medium cone if you get the gumball with the tin foil on it. Eva's Dairy Cafe is open for the season and that means warmer weather. It makes me happy.
My son asked me to capture him hurdling for his facebook profile picture, so we took advantage of the empty track and nice light and photographed him in just the right location on the track. I really like this shot and am so proud of him and his accomplishments so far. By the way, if you're critiquing his hurdling form, his left knee on his trail leg needs to be a bit higher.
