Food, Photography & Fun
Overcast days aren’t my favourite. I’d much rather have a clear sky with glowy backlighting… I mean, doesn’t almost every photographer? Although you can certainly get great photos under almost any condition if you know what you’re doing, but as a new phototog, I did not. I panicked. I had anticipated the sunset cooperating with …
It seems like the light & airy style is where it’s at with a lot of photogs these days. And since I’m still in the process of learning what my style is, I seem to be all over the place. It seems to change depending on who I’m following on the interwebs at the time. …
I did my very first family photo shoot a few weeks ago. I had studied a lot and watched a kajillion about how to do this well, and my first guinea pigs were friends from church, so I wasn’t too worried… but still felt like I had no idea what I was doing. We were …
I had so much fun running around the park with this lovely family this morning… How is this gorgeous little lady so big already?? Every time I take photos, I learn a few things that make me better next time. Today I learned that when you’re shooting around trees, always be mindful that they aren’t …
Whenever I have my camera with me, I’m always drawn to the kids. I think it’s because they’re not old enough yet to be annoyed and roll their eyes when the camera comes out again… They just like the extra attention. In this case, my double cousin came from really far away for a visit …
During my trip to New Brunswick my friends arranged for me to do a very informal photo shoot with their new friends, who I had never met before, just for an opportunity to practice. It’s much easier when there are no expectations, but I’m pretty happy with how these turned out for a first try …
Seeing as how I have no offspring and I’m not really a kid person, I wasn’t quite sure how travelling with a seven-year-old would go down. Turns out it’s pretty great. Travelling with this kid isn’t just about washroom breaks and snacks. It also involves photo shoots on all the rocks at every pit stop. …
When I did a photo shoot last week with the boy and his chickens, I couldn’t believe how easy it was. Who said kid photography was hard?? Well it turns out it’s much easier to get one kid to do what you want than three, all at the same. BUT this was so much fun …
This kid is the best practice subject I could wish for! I hardly had to give him any direction, he’s just a natural at posing… which is good, because I still feel like I have no idea what I’m doing! So I’d say for my first ever kid shoot, I’m pretty happy with the result😊
