Tuesday: Entwine II

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

Entwine #2.  I hope you enjoy how I’ve interpreted it this week. I mean, what could be more figurative than a set of wedding bands? : )

Aren’t those bands lovely? (And, no, they’re not mine & Chris’ — ours are silver because I love silver more).  : )  These are a set that my mom inherited from a family friend that she let me borrow to take some images with.

I love macro images like this and it’s one of my favorite things to capture at weddings: the details that make the day unique.  I think it’s those little things that the couple takes time to plan, but can still miss in the busyness of their day.

Well, enough philosophizing from me, Happy Tuesday to All. ; )

Poladroids! Neat-o Program.

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Really, it is a super Neat-o program.  It creates Digital Polaroids (thus the extra “d”) for you right on your desktop.  It’s like a modern version of old photography.  I love it!  You can even shake the image on your desktop to help develop it.  Really.  Check it out!

And, of course, some samples (I can’t share just one!).  And Abby will love me for it since there’s another preview for her! Hehe.

Go Poladroids!

I know you’ve been anticipating this post since the preview about a week ago.  : )  (I at least know Abby has!)

And now here they are.  See, didn’t I tell you they were an adorable couple? (Feel free to agree in the comments!)

I had so much fun with this photo shoot.  I was my first in Abilene & it gave me a chance to explore the town a bit.  I grew up in Merkel (about 15 minutes outside of Abilene) and so Abilene was the place to go to the mall, catch a movie, and get good food (except, of course, the little local & yummy places in Merkel – Mesquite Bean, anyone?).  However, I never truly looked at Abilene through the lens of my camera & it was fantastic!  I’ve already found a few other places that I want to do some shots as well, so if you’re interested in a session, but location uncertain, have no fear!  I’ve been gathering ideas for a few weeks now & am ready to explore them!

Now, for all the wonderful (and yummy – check the Chocolate sign!) photos:

Dewayne is a Mac guy.  I concur totally!  I mean after all, their logo is both healthy & yummy!

This was our last shot of the day & totally Dewayne’s idea & I love it.  I know it’s natural to want to look at the camera for shots (I do it too!) but sometimes a lack of eye-contact works!

Rocking the lens flare!  : )

Abby & Dewayne: Preview

Friday, August 14th, 2009

Here’s a Preview from their Just Because session.

I had so much fun. (And aren’t they so cute?!? Well, you can’t see them in much detail in this shot, so you’ll have to agree with me after I’ve got their full post up). : D

Oh, and check out my new watermark. What do you think?

More pictures coming from their session! : )
