I know it has been FOREVER since I last posted. Lots of stuff has been going on, just not directly related to this blog.
BUT 'tis the season for me to start shooting again!
This past weekend our dear friend Joe graduated from Columbia University's School of Engineering with his Masters! It was very exciting and a lots of family flew in for the occasion. Needless to say- photos were a must.
The sun was fading fast but the light was GORGEOUS.
Here's an amateur mistake that I've seen a lot of people do (and I'm so thankful I had one oopsy so I could show you!)
Which image do you think looks best? (Both are straight out of the camera ((SOOC)).
There was the most AMAZING golden light but you do NOT want that on your subject's face. I had Maris and Joe step two feet to the left and BAM! The bottom photo happened. (Realistically, she could have stepped one more foot over, but I'm satisfied.)
There's no camera tricks, no artificial light. Just straight shooting. I exposed for the people, not the background.
Here are a few more images from the festivities. (Also SOOC).
The Grad!
Joe and his Momma that flew in all the way from Australia!
The whole gang.
^ This is my New York family. :)
Below are two edited images that I played with.
^ Maris and Joe.
Maris and her Daddy the next day. So beautiful.
In other news: I will be in Metro Detroit from June 3rd till sometime in the fall.
Glad to be back! And I hope to keep up with this, at least once a week.
