Maternity Photos

I was able to sneak in a quick maternity session with Mel & Jay. A couple of the pictures didn't turn out the way I wanted so I'll have to go back to PS and make the appropriate adjustments.

I'm having trouble right now getting my Canon Selphy photo printer to read the appropriate colour profiles. I may have to visit my local photography shop to print some better pictures.

Here's mash-up of the two best photos I took. Thanks to Mel & Jay for letting me boss them around after the baby shower.

Kids Portraits


This picture, from the wedding I shot in August, has kicked off a keen interest in children's photography.




I don't have a lot of friends with young children. Just a cousin here, and a friend there. Although that's about to change come January when my best friend has her first baby and then again in February when another close friend has her first baby.

The more I photograph kids, the more I like photographing kids. Instead of trying to hide their personalities, stiffly trying to fit into the photograph, they're just themselves and that comes out so well in their photographs.

Keep my fingers crossed that I get to do more photos like the one above in the new year!

Vin & Jen's Wedding Part Deux

Finally finished the wedding pictures. Final photo count was 372. Many of them are multiples with an image in colour, a colourized/colour fade and a B&W. I also made a handful of triptychs and a larger multi-image collage.

Can't say that I won't do another wedding. In reality, I'd love to do another wedding. I had such a blast with the wedding party and their families.

My next project is a baby shower at Thanksgiving.
