Some Beautiful Boys

So these beautiful boys are mine, but they are allowing me valuable practice time! I feel that with their help, I continue to grow and develop as an artist. During my days off this week, I took some time to shoot them individually. My middle son's photographs were done outside, and my baby was inside. Then after studying up a new editing technique, I used their pictures to experiment with. Today, I practiced using vignettes. I know I still have much to learn. But what profession doesn't have ways to continually learn and get better at what you do?
Well, I think now, I will show you my accomplishments for this week. As always, I welcome constructive criticism, positive thoughts and opinions. As an outside prospective will add to my knowledge and skills.  Please no negative comments, keep your bad mouthing to yourself.

First wedding shoot

OK, so, this was my sister's wedding, but hey it still counts right? OK, so I am really not the "photographer" here, I was in the wedding after all. But, I did still bring my camera!!!

My sister, Brenda, and her new husband, Rick, had a great day. They had a Star Wars theme. The ceremony and reception took place at a local historic hotel. Everything went beautifully. Here are some of the many photos I took that day.




They both looked great and had a great day. I only wish I could have gotten more pictures of them, but seeing as I was in the wedding party, that wasn't possible. I am sure that the hired photographer will have some great shots to share.
