#453 Chad

2009-04-08

Hi everyone-

We woke up today with remnants of a bit of snow overnight. Nothing of any significance but I am holding on for the chance of one more good shot! I mowed the grass the other day and can't believe it's that time already. Now the list of outside things to do is growing and growing. One more snow would help to put that off just a bit longer.....

Enough for wishful thinking....

Today's image was shot back in February while in Las Vegas. This is Chad Fuller of Fuller Edge Photography in Calgary. He and his wife Erin were kind enough to model for us in the downtown area. They were a lot of fun and super models.

This image was shot against a white brick background along a motel in that area. I added a few layers of texture to remove the brick background and to age the image a bit. Then I added two borders in varying opacity's and finally converted the image to black and white. Lastly I added a bit more blur where it was needed.

Have a great day!

#428- One Set Up, Two different Images...

2009-03-05

Hi everyone-

Today's images were shot in Atlantic City while on a little weekend trip there. These and the previous days shots were all created using only window light and reflectors.

It was a heavy overcast day so the window light was even pretty low. So we used everything we could find as reflectors including the white bag the dress is stored in.

Even though we had a lot of reflectors and we could really brighten up the shot I wanted to show that in the exact same lighting condition, only minutes apart with the same equipment you could make two very different images. One more dark and moody and the other bright and more uplifting.

Both images were shot in the same location without Beth ever really moving much. Just a few changes in settings and a bit of post in photoshop and it's you have whole different look and feel to the images.

Have a great day!
