Audio Boo #2 Reflector-tron

Audio Boo test run... first boo "DIY Plastic Bag"

A walk in the park.

So today my daughter, dog and I went for a walk down to Bowness park. It was around 11am-ish. The part of the year in Calgary is very nice for fall colours and oddly warm this year. It will hit 33c later today.

The trees in the park are mostly the kind that give you a sore back from raking. However, they turn the most wonderful Yellow and Orange this time of year. It's a little early yet. But by next weekend... wow!

So, why was I in the park, other then to walk the dog and see if the daughter would fall sleep? I was scouting locations for an upcoming family portrait session. I am not sure I will use the park, but I did find some little places nobody goes that are stunning at certain times of day.

So... even if your not a pro... go scout. Learn the area and open your eyes to possible backgrounds and light patterns. And don't forget to take a plastic bag....
you never know. (dog needed it this time)

Joy at Big Hill Springs

Well, it's about 2am. Family is in bed sleeping and I have finished most of my editing for tonight. I should be able to call the wedding couple in the morning for a little looky at there pictures. I have posted them Low Res to flickr and trust they will be able to get a good sence of the day from these proofs. I am very happy at the emotion that was captured. Joy is the best word I can use for the whole day.

Off to bed.

Post Wedding Sogginess!

Well, we made it to the "I Do's" and then the ski openned up with a blessing. They say it's good luck when it rains on your wedding day. Well, I think it makes for great pictures. AND a wet camera. The wedding turned out wonderful.

Last post I talked about bringing a plastic bag with you because you never know.... turns out, I need a plastic bag as a rain hood and as luck would have it, I brought one. By the way, a white plastic bag makes a good flash difuser for the on-camera alpha flash.

On to the coffee drinkin' and photo edits! If you need me I'll be at the computer.
