It is summer time and wedding season, so if you are like me.... you are super busy shooting and editing. There isn't a whole lot of time to do fun things like take time to post an entire thread for our fellow grinners.

So I propose we each share 2 or 3 recent fav photos to keep us all inspired and current.

I still have a lot of summer and weddings left to shoot, so inspire me!

So, I'll start... you finish!

(Ok, now your turn!) :lust

Oh, and C & C always welcomed on the photos. This isn't a contest... this is inspiration.

    Heather, I LOVE the photo of her bride in the truck! I would never have thought to use an old vehicle like that! And, BTW, thank you for the list on another thread about what you bring with you. Some of those things I'd never thought of, such as the mattress pad for the bride to sit on. Genius!

    Good idea heather! Good placement of the girls without tattoosthumb.gif

    Heres one from the Cape a couple weeks ago shooting with Agnieska(I'll have to post some more from that wedding) we had a blast with this couple!

    CJ, question on the last shot.
    Did you light them up with a flash? I love the blue sky and well exposed subjects.

    Only thing i'd do, is to flip it horizontally. That way, on the left there will be thunder, and clouds, and on the right, since they are together only the clear sky.. Just a symbolism thing, I suppose.

    Love the lighting and the contrasting colors on the truck shot Heather! Did you use an umbrella? I think I see it in the convex mirror on the side-view.

    cj the shot at the college really draws me in, I dig it clap.gif

    Corey... your OCF work is amazing! LOVE #1! I would love to see more of your work.
    So jealous about shooting with Angie.... Beautiful stuff you got there.

    Bike 21- yep! A single shoot through brolly. I love soft light, and portable soft light is even better! Love your second shot, though would probably have converted it to b & w.

    Scooters- The truck was just sitting there... all gorgeous and rusty and blue. I had to piggy back the bride across a big patch of mud to get to it, but it was worth it!

    Well, sneaky feather, you know how I feel about the car shot, I am in love with it and totally envy you for having that one in your portfolio! iloveyou.gif

    ... and Corey, that veil shot is to die for (!!!) + I am totally in love with that College shot (love their expressions, love the wide angle crop, love the sky, love the background, love their "pose"), it's an awesome shot all around! iloveyou.gif

    Alrighty, mine suck looking at all the photos that have been already posted, but here we go:

    1) Shot that bride with Corey, same pose, just a different angle

    2) I don't know ... just really like that one, not that it's anything too special / maybe it's just because I had to realize that I won't have any more beach weddings anymore in the near future :

    3) One form a fancy wedding at a fancy mansion:
    922444609_8vgZx-L.jpg

    4) A dancing shot from a while back. It was a 2 story room, so I had a chance to shoot from the balcony (and yup, I fixed the thingy that is on the floor / right above her head in the final version)

    Naaaaaah, Corey got me with his one rolleyes1.gif (C, I'm still bitter about it :bluduh, hehe :giggle Definitely learned something from you that day tough. There is nothing better that seeing what other photographers do with the same subject thumb.gif)

    Last weekend's wedding:
    955578631_ihNiF-O.jpg

    Two off-camera flashes, at 1/2 power, off to my right. LOTS of burning and dodging, in fact I tripple-processed for the sky, skin, and sand, and then merged with layer masking...

    Foques- Thanks yes, all have fill flash.

    The first was an onboard 580 un defused.

    The second was a 580 through umbrella camera slightly left.

    The 3rd was also a 580 through umbrella camera left.

    Similar to this(the brides brother was stoked to help as a human tripod)

    I think I see what your saying about flipping it but I wouldnt want to flip a photo with people in it.


    Thanks bike21!

    Heather, Thanks for the comments! Angie should definitely be on your short list of people to meet and shoot with!

    Agnieszka! Those photos rock! You've got to post your under vail kiss shot! #2 is my favorite here, love the blowing grass and how natural they look!

    Matt, I definitely dig that sky!
