Cisco & Abra’s Engagement Session

Another fun photo shoot with good friends Cisco & Abra. They picked a great location in Hardin Valley. As always, Lacey was a great assistant.

New Years w/ The Gathering

Bringing in the new year with The Gathering group. Fun times! Shot most of these with a remote flash bounced off of the ceiling.

Franqui Family Shoot

Another sweet photo shoot with another sweet family. My partner in crime, Lacey Thompson, is really quite excellent at posing people and working with them to get a very natural feel. This really frees me up to focus on getting the best captures I can, technically. I used a remote flash(Nikon SB-600 with cheapo flash trigger) for the indoor shots, bouncing it off of the ceiling or walls. I also used it as a fill for several of the outdoor shots, to fight the direct sunlight.

Definitely a cool blessing to work with my girl, and to work with such a fun client!

Family Portrait Shoot

This past weekend I had the opportunity to shoot some family portraits for some sweet relatives. It was my first time using a remote flash (SB-600) to try and fight get along with the sun. I have a lot to learn as far as strobes go, but I’m fairly happy with my first efforts.

Super Full Moon

I captured this a little after midnight, which wasn’t as close to perigee as it was at sunset, but still figured I should try to get a shot of the moon tonight. It’s 356,577 km away. I used my 70-300mm lens (and have my tripod out on loan), so not the best set up, but it is what it is. Here is a larger version for your desktop, if you want it.
