Erin in the studio

A couple fo the shots I did this weekend with Erin who is studying contemporary dance and ballet.

Business portraits - three looks

Worked with recent MBA grad and entrepreneur Loreen Sherman to get a new look for her for a variety of uses - great to have the time to work with someone so willing to try things out of the ordinary for their business. The top shot was your straight up headshot done with soft box and rim light. The second was done using a hotshoe flash on a stand and set to very tight light, while the third was natural light in a corner of some space I'm using - strong backlight. So far that is everyone's favourite.

Busted watch

I was out doing some family portraits the other day, everything went pretty well, got lots of nice shots of them. Packed up my gear and was headed home when I checked my watch - I have no idea how or when this happened. It was fine on my way there, I checked the time to make sure I wasn't late. I don't remember hitting anything while I was there or getting back into the car. Must have tapped it just right on the edge of some furniture and it just smucked my poor watch. Sad. Really liked this watch - not the most expensive in the world, but did spend a fair amount on it at the time.
