An update...Finally?

Well it's been a few months since I've updated this thing. Like I said in my first post, I don't really like blogs. Plus I haven't had very much to post about. Maybe I have, I just haven't had the time to post. I shot a family a couple of months ago... A Photo-Shoot, that is. (People always gasp when I say that)

I think it turned out really well. It's more difficult than I thought working with toddlers. Hats off to people who specialize in child photography. It's no small feat getting that right shot with a child. Small children do what they want, when they want, and no amount of effort on my part will convince them otherwise. Unfortunately, yelling only yeilds negative results. Chalk that one up to experience.

I would definitely do a shoot like this again- at least I'll be prepared for it. After Post-Processing was done I was very pleased with how this shoot turned out.

Here's some shots:
































































And there are a few in color.




























I already had in mind what I wanted to see weeks before I even shot these. I knew they would make for some great B&W Conversions. And they did. I think they look better than the color shots, actually.

All in all, it was a fun experience I wouldn't mind doing again.

Looks like I have a senior session to shoot this week, a grad party next month, and a wedding in June. "This should be fun..."

Thanks Ryan. Glad to see someone is actually reading this stuff.
I was hoping the Hi-Key shot didn't look too 'ghosty'...
