Here are some shots from the wedding I shot at the Longview Mansion. It was a great time with an amazing family! It was a very windy day but the sun glistened off everyone's smile!

Photography Workshop

On Saturday I attended a photography workshop and I am so thankful for everyone who helped put it on! It was very informational and gave me tips that I hope will further me in the photography world.

First thing I need to focus on is my 'Why' followed by my 'How' and 'What'.. it really got me thinking about my photography and the direction I want it to grow.

Wedding!

As I am editing Holly & Kurt's pictures I could not help but put this one up! I absolutely LOVE it! More pictures to come..

Holly & Kurt:e-session

I absolutely loved this e-session with Holly and Kurt. They were referred to me by Holly's older sister who is a really good friend of mine. We had an amazing location for such a fun easy going couple as we stomped through brush and trees on a cool fall evening. Thank you guys! I cant wait for the wedding!

Score!

Emery played his last game of the season with a great game! He put all he had in the game as his family stood on the side lines cheering him on. The could not have been anymore perfect with the sun warming the skin in the early morning breeze.

The first image is Emery running across the field with the soccer ball to score another goal. The next image is Emery's father Tim giving him a father son pep talk on the field. The words that were said will stay between them :)

Thanks Emery for a great game!

Left Field

Pentax announced its 645D medium format digital camera just recently on their website. They plan for it to start shipping globally December 2010. The suggested retail price is $10,000.00 for the kit. The 645D is said to produce extra-sharp, super-high-resolution images because of its approximately 40 effective megapixels.
Just like the new release of the K5 the 645D is fully weather resistant. I was really starting to debate to stay with Pentax with their lack of more top performing cameras. But this has really changed the playing field. Out of left field Pentax has shocked me and decided to play hard ball.

Texture?

With the rainy weather keeping me indoors the last couple of days the editing process has got me trying new things. I have been playing with the idea of textures. What do you think? Too much, too little? Is it distracting from the subject? This is the first image I have tried it out on and I think it is starting to grown on me.
