More "shoot the shooter"

jeffreaux2

I posted a few examples from a senior shoot I did on Friday HERE.

I had brought along my old Fuji P&S, and had her mom take a few shots of us as we were capturing her Sr pics.

Hope you enjoy.

We began at this location....



Here I am trying to hide the fact that we are shooting in an area surrounded by headstones.



To get something like this....(note to self: shiny fabrics and on camera fill don't mix well!!!)














...and lastly a composite that I will eventually post on my blog...

Oh my Goodness! Jeff .... please send some of your beautiful locations out this way. #1 is just stunning!! The trees look sooo beautiful!! The whole set is gorgeous, as always. Have a feeling you just want to make us jealous ... haha! Not a big fan of the green one, but the collage turned out great

The photos taken that day were at multiple locations in the quaint town of St. Francisville ,La. We did not spend verymuch time at the church.

The green one is a cross process treatment I like to use ...now n then...just for the sake of being crazy!

Thanks for looking....I can't send the locations...but if you come down we can do some touring around!!!

Would be quite the haul from Boston huh?

Plan yourself a trip to New Orleans sometime. Stay in the French Quarter. You will love it!!!

Yeah that other pic should really find it's way into this colllage, ! One thing I learned, the more collages the more sale possibilities.

Photography should end up on that Discovery Channel show, "Dirty Jobs".

I have actually never sold a collage....never really tried to. I did a 10x10 template to plug photos into. My intentions were to sell those in the leather folio folders....but I haven't really pushed it. The collages are a great way to display several photos on my blog without really taking up a bunch of real estate or requiring a lot of scrolling.

What a great idea to involve her Mom in capturing some great moments. Your photos are great as well. Well done! I think you may have started a new trend.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

The locations....

The church is in St Francisvile La. The barn is located at a Heritage museum in Zachary, La. We also shot at the Myrtles Plantation that is famously haunted.
