Some Pictures from this weekends shoot.

Well had an interesting shoot this weekend. For those of you not in Colorado it is sometimes hard to even explain our weather here. On Saturday, the day before the shoot, we had amazing weather, 72 degrees blue skies and so much sun. But ohhhh what 24 hours can bring in the mountains. Sunday I wake up ready for my shoot and know things are probably not gonna go smooth. It is 25 degrees and snowing hard. that is almost a 50 degree drop in one day . WOW!

When we get to the studio everything started going wrong. I walked over to my assistants car in the blowing snow and step in a 8 inch deep puddle of ice cold water, that woke me up. Upon heading to the studio door braving the blowing snow and cold I find that the studio didn't set code pad properly. So I had to call them up and wait 40 minutes for someone to show up to let us in.

After we got in I thought my bad luck was over but I was mistaken. I couldn't for the life of me get my laptop download and show my images in Adobe Lightroom so I ended up just nixing that. Then the cord I got to go from my pocket wizard to my lights didn't work. Just not a good start to my shoot.

But then I settled down and started shooting and remembered why I love doing this. My model for the day was 16 year old, 6'1, blue eyes Taylor and she is just a pleasure to work with. I have posted some pictures from the shoot. This goes to show you that even if everything is against you just persevere and you will prevail.

New look new shoot

Well I just found out today that a young lady I did a shoot for finally got her braces taken off and wants to do a new shoot. Although you will agree with me that she was very easy on the eyes before her breaces were off she assures me she will even be even more camera friendly afterwards.

I look forward to the shoot and another great model to work with.

Congrats Taylor!

First try at maternity pictures.

Not my usual forte but my wife asked me to take some maternity pictures for her. We are expecting a baby girl any week now.

I used my Tameron 28-75 on my Canon 1D Mark II with a flash off camera.

Hope you like the shots.










Thanks and have a great day!!

My first blog and it is Scary

So sitting at work, my 9-5 job, and trying to come up with a design that is both web 2.0, clean, has white space, and also is SEO compliant. When a friend of mine sends me the following link:

http://www.photoshoproadmap.com/Photoshop-blog/2008/01/16/70-horror-blood-and-gore-photoshop-effects-and-brushes/

Be careful though it might not be for the faint of heart. Some great photoshop tutorials though!


Sincerely,

Christian
