Sam – Maternity shoot

Posted in maternity, personal, staff

So a good photographer friend of mine – took the time awhile ago to explain off camera flash to me – and well I never really had a chance to try it out as I didn’t want to mess around too much on a paying clients shoot. With the time clock ticking down to serious wedding season fast – I asked my assistant Sam to be my subject. Sam has willingly sat for me to take photos of her before but this session is a little more special as her and her husband are expecting a little bundle. So we joyously went out to try the techniques on her belly :) Even if I didn’t know Sam these photos would be pretty close to my heart – but knowing her story and what kind of person she is makes these photos one of my favourite shoots to date :)

This one was taken down by the water at Morgan’s point and I kinda wanted to block out a lot of the background and just get Sam and her baby

I love how peaceful she looks here and the little white cloud in the background

Super Mommy!

I love how happy she looks in this one and the next one – so carefree :)

This is my favorite image and I feel like it’s her and the baby against the world. She just looks so protective in this shot and I love it because that’s how most mom’s are :)

Needless to say we had a great time and I can’t wait to get out and do the next series of shots – Sam’s still got quite a few more months in her pregnancy

WPPI – Part #2

Posted in WPPI, maternity, personal

Ok so I know I posted some photos of meeting David Jay and Jasmine Star in Vegas but I also took photos of the actual city. So much was going on during the convention that my mind was spinning a mile a minute and I needed some sanity. My sanity came in the form of Jayme Morrison (www.jaymemorrison.com) a fellow photographer friend that was my roomie during the trip. Jayme and I pretty much stuck together a lot of the trip and she’s pretty much the only reason I saw daylight at all or ate a good meal during my trip :) So on two of our forays out into Vegas to breathe we got some great shots and had lots of fun :) Here’s a few from around Vegas

Sign outside the Miracle Mile Shops - just loved the way it looked

And here’s a few photos of the beautiful and mother to be – Jayme :)

Jayme just outside of Paris

This was taken just inside a VIP section of Ceaser’s Palace – where I am sure we were not supposed to be

but oh well :)

This is a beautiful stair case in the aforementioned VIP section – I just love this one – The idea I had in my mind was Jayme was on the staircase to heaven waiting for her Baby lol – would have loved to have all my equipment and everything with me to shoot the ones in this location because Ceaser’s Palace is just absolutely gorgeous – it would be a dream place to shoot a wedding – in fact I got a pretty big itch to shoot anything there as you will see in my next blog post :)
