I’ve been distracted…
but it’s for good reason!
I’ve been spending a lot of time on Photography. I started a class & I’m really enjoying it. The fact that it’s Spring & we have daylight, green trees, grass, etc. - has allowed me to play a lot more & get more photo practice in.
This past weekend I was lucky enough to have a photo session with this wonderful couple:
They were so much fun to work with. They are HUGE Red Sox fans (WOOT!) and they had great idea to use a onesie in some shots.
Jess made these blocks herself, using some designer paper & Modge Podge. That’s right - she is a paper crafter like me! LOVE IT!! If you’d like to see more of these or perhaps order some custom blocks, you can to check out her Etsy store. The stuff she makes is amazing - and it would make a great addition to your nursery, or a wonderful baby gift!
A big THANKS to Jess & her husband for letting me shoot your maternity photos!
In my class this week, we focused on shooting still life. Given that I’m still figuring out my camera, I shot almost ALL of my pics last night with incorrect exposure. (Somehow I had modified the exposure compensation setting on my camera. WOOPS.) So yea…they didn’t come out all that great, but hey - that’s why I’m in a class, right? Once I figured out what the heck I was doing, I managed to get this one nice shot of a weed.
HAHA. All the flowers & I chose to shoot a weed. Yep.
It’s a pretty weed, no?
Great photos! Did you add the ‘pin light’ effect to the photos after you shot them? or is that a setting in your camera? I have a Canon Powershot SX10 myself and one thing I miss on that one that I had on my 35MM is the ability to manually adjust focus with the lens. Thanks for sharing!
hi Jeannie - I do some post editing in Photoshop so there is some edge burn on a few of these maternity pics. As for my camera, it’s a DSLR so I have full manual control over everything.
Nice pictures.
My daughters are doing Picture a day. My middle daughter took a picture of the same thing a dandilion. We haven’t even had our flowers bloom yet, but those suckers have gone to seed already LOL
I love the shots and how you captured them…
What camera/glass were you using? I love your ‘weed’ pic too.. beautiful!
wow! wonderful photies, simply beautiful! Done a good job there! wish I had such nice pics of the time I was pregnant… Well done! Would love to see more of your photos!
hugs,
Micky
