...Love Hurts!

Hello EVeryone!

Had a great session with Nicole and Steve today, results to be posted later in the week - just a thanks to Nicole, especially, who took a bit of a nasty spill mid-session and scraped up her knee quite a bit...however, determined to carry on, a change of clothing and 5 minutes later we were back in the action! I promised to post a knee shot and the caption above, so look forward to their series a little later this week...

I love everything about this - the desaturation, the slant, the abstractness of them just looking nowhere, being almost out of frame...I'm sure most will not.

Reminds me of a Magritte composition (will PS out those weeds on the shore in the final, though...)

Betty & Patrick, Plus a Great Assistant

Enjoyed a great, small wedding for Betty & Patrick at the brides' home in Oakville, Ontario. Starting to process the images today, and their are a lot - look for samples later in the week. Hope everyone is well!


*edit*

I'd like to say that, in just starting to go over the preliminary photos, Kathryn (roped into assisting, initially, because she's such a supporting girlfriend)has been absolutely ROCKING it as a second shooter! When doing the formals and posed photos, she's been photojournalism-ing and candid grabbing, and I must say, some of these shots are truly great!

Here's a Lightroom screenshot - keep in mind, these are directly from the camera:

Image Editing

Will begin to offer my retouching and editing services for photographers as well as those who are...less then happy...with images they've had done by other people, hoping to add more 'flair' to their photographs. In them meantime, here's a shot of my editing partner while we work...

...got a kitten!

It appears the forces of cute win out over the forces of static cling once again...!
