Another shoot

3/28/2010

 
I keep promising myself a weekend off, but I think it will have to wait until next weekend.
I only had one shoot, but it was a long one.  This is not a bad thing because I got to try out all sorts of different techniques and lighting set-ups.  Things I probably wouldnt normally try, but that's the benefit of working with friends.

I shot with several different lighting arrangements as well as backgrounds.

Quiet weekend

3/23/2010

 
Just two shoots this weekend.  It was a nice break.
Saturday was a great day for shooting and I met with G and A for their portraits.  We worked indoors and then went for a nice walk in Westwinds park.  First time I was there, and I will be back for sure.

On Sunday I got to meet K and J and their new arrival.  Great light on Sunday evening, and K some really good ideas ready when I arrived.  Their little peanut was quite co-operative and even gave me a few smiles.  Pretty exciting considering she is only 8 weeks.

Missed Last weekend's post

3/20/2010

 
Ok, I got busy this week and wasn't on the ball with last weekend's shoot. Mea Culpa.


So quickly, here it is.  Saturday I was almost in Airdrie for a shoot.  Bright sunny day, but oh boy was there some wind.  Worked with a great couple who are expecting baby #1, and it is a surprise.  I don't know how people can go without knowing, I guess it is the joy in the surprise.

I had a second shoot on Sunday, way far south of the city.  I have to say it was a perfect morning for a drive.  The sun was so warm and it was a nice calm day.
There were some great little locations around the shoot area that we tried out and I am happy to say that I got some wonderful shots. I am sure S and her husband will be quite happy with the end results.

Apricity

I challenge you to find the definition of this word.  I will give you a hint, it would be a strong description of today.


I have decided that I am going to make an effort to go out once a week on location scouting expeditions. 


Today my choice was Carburn Park.  This is a small man-made park in Riverbend.  I never would have found this place if I hadn't planned this trip out. 


The weather was fantastic, beautiful, strong sunshine.
Picture
I have a great visualization for what this path will look like in full foliage.  I will have to come back here in the summer.  This is such a great spot because there are no houses, or buildings.  Such a rare thing here in the city.
Picture
This tree was too great to pass up.  I love all the branches going out in every direction.
Picture
The two major birds I saw on this trip were Canadian Geese and Chickadees.  These little chickadees were just flying everywhere and swooping right in front of my camera.  I was really glad that I caught this shot.  I set my camera to continous shutter and hoped that I could get one of them.  It worked quite well considering my expectations.
Picture
I couldn't resist the contrast of the blue and white.  I love the simplicity of this shot.


Just in case you are wondering, I wanted to share a few details of this park.  It seemed pretty quiet, of course it was a weekday afternoon, I am not sure how busy I expected it to be.  There are quite a few little trails that you can explore.  I was expecting more paved pathways, and had I known what it was going to be like, I might not have chosen the stroller.  But, we managed.  AND there was a ton of mud.  I would definitely choose this as a place to take kids, there was lots to explore and great areas to go throw some rocks into the water.

Family

3/7/2010

 
This weekend I was allowed to observe another photographer at work in her studio.  It was a great experience to see how someone else sets up and does things from start to finish.


I also bought a whole pile of new equipment that I am so excited to use.



On Sunday I spent the morning with L and her family.  They welcomed a new arrival only five days ago.  He was handsome as can be and had beautiful dark hair.  He had a mischievious older brother who was so friendly and talkative.
It was a great shoot overall. Had a couple of minor glitches that had me worried, but it all came together in the end.

Both of them are such cuties.
