Concentration Week 3

Hayden driving his mercedes with his cousin

The first time I've been able to get Hayden on a horse. This was a big deal!

This is my sister's horse Sultan

Hayden playing baseball. I love the movement of the bat and the adult socks that Hayden insisted on wearing

I wanted to make my sister look dangerous by having her wear my brother in law's gun. It would have been cooler if they had a holster!

Concentration Week 2

I took these pictures at my sister's house. I like these ones a lot.

Photo Assignment #2-Building of Character

We were supposed to go out and take pictures of a building we thought has character. Mr. Gross wanted us to start far off and get closer and closer.

A barn in my neighborhood

An old house in front of my place of business.

Close up. I love the curves and the colors!

An old church near where I work

I love this shot.

Concentration Photos Week 1

At our third class period Mr. Gross wanted us to pick what we want to concentrate on in photography. Since I want to learn to take better pictures of my kids, I chose people. My sister Rachel was my first model. I really liked the background in these pictures but the posing is a little awkward.Then I used my brother and his wife and his cool truck. I really like the posing but I didn't pay any attention to the lighting/shadows.

I still have LOTS to learn!

Photo Assignment #1- 3 objects that tell a story

This was my very first photo class assignment. 3 objects that tell a story. He didn't want them placed together. Here's what I found:

Shoes

To my followers:

All two of you :P

What do you think of the look and layout of my blog?

Do you have any suggestions? Change the colors, font, etc?

And my watermark...what do you think of it? I liked it at first but now I'm not sure...

If you comment I might make you cupcakes (or cookies if you want).

And yes, Rachel, these would be in ADDITION to the cupcakes I already owe you.

1940's Photoshoot

A few weeks ago I took my brother and his wife, and my sister and her husband to a old boarded up hotel. My brother drove his 1949 International (which we call Mater) and we did a photo shoot around the building and the truck.

Oh and I made them dress up too. It was a lot of fun! Here are some of the pictures I took:



We were trying to recreate a picture of my deceased grandfather here. My brother looks a lot like him. I will post the picture of my grandpa another time
