Momstown Sneak Peek!

Okay so I just wanted to share a sneak peek at the finished products from the momstown Guelph photosessions! Ladies I hope you like these and look forward to sharing the rest of your sessions with you! Thanks again!

*** PLEASE DO NOT COPY OR PRINT THESE IMAGES!

Until Next time ~ Happy Shooting!

Editing Frenzy!

The Momstown Guelph Photoshoots went well. Thank you to all of you came out and participated! I am now in the editing stage. 3 of the 5 families are done - 2 to go! Once processed, I will be loading them onto cd's by family and will give them to Leanne (Momstown Guelph owner) for distribution. Some of the images will be uploaded to my site soon and you will be able to view them HERE!

Here is a sneek peak at one of the finished images!

I will be scheduling some more PB sessions soon so stay posted for info on that. Also, I am scheduled to do my first Boudoir session in September. Gives the young gal a chance to tone things up lol before then so stay tuned for updates on that as well.

Until next time ~ Happy Shooting!

It's been a little while since I last posted! I would first like to thank my Father-in-law for lending me his DSLR while mine has been in getting repaired! Thanks to this, I was still able to capture some lovely images of the University Graduation I was scheduled to shoot last Wednesday!

I have been told that my camera has been repaired and is ready to ship so I should be receiving it back anyday now! Looking forward to trying out my new portrait/macro lens!

I have decided that I am going to work towards purchasing the Nikon D90 with 50mm 1.4 lense, that is my next goal!

I have also been working through the online course which follows the book 'Understanding Exposure'. I have read the entire book now, done several of the assignments but have not yet posted any of them...will have to do that!

The Momstown Guelph Photoshoot is this coming weekend June 19 & 20!! If you have not yet signed up, please check the calendar and do so as there are still some spots available on Sunday due to a few unfortunate cancellations.

Until next time - Happy Shooting!

Some of the Taylor Family shots are now available for viewing on my website under the 'Children' and 'Families' sections.

I have not yet heard back on the progress of my camera repairs. Will keep you posted as to when I get it back!
Just a reminder that the momstown Guelph relaunch party is this weekend on Saturday, May 29th! If you're in the area, you won't want to miss it!

Many thanks!

Many thanks to the Taylor family for a great photoshoot on Saturday! Images are in the post processing stage and should be available for viewing soon.

On another note; we currently have 7 families signed up for the momstown photoshoot day on June 19th! Not sure how I am supposed to get that many done in the one day but will either have to make it work or reduce the number of sessions for the day. Entries; however, are now closed and I will not be accepting any more requests for that day.

My camera had to go in for repairs today! The hotshoe is loose so I am having it replaced and going to have the auto focus checked as it has been acting up. Also going to get a full cleaning while they have it. I was informed that it could be anywhere from 2-6 weeks and even up to 8 max! Asked them to put a rush on it so that I have it back in time for June 19th! Otherwise, I'm sorry to have to announce, that we may need to postpone the momstown sessions!

Well until next time - Happy Shooting!

New online course!

So it looks like the course that I wanted to take through Sir Sandford is not going to be offered again until at least this fall :(

That's alright though :) because thanks to Amy Simmons, a Photographer in the Toronto are who refered me to a site she uses, I am now taking an online course to better understand and put into practice skills for better exposure! The course is free, although you do have to purchase the book 'Understanding Exposure - Revised Edition' by Bryan Peterson in order to follow along with the lessons and participate in the activities. Once you complete an course level, you simply upload your results and post them to the site for review and critique by the professionals offering their services to the rest of us!

I purchased the book today for $31.50 at Chapters and am excited to get started! Will let you know how I make out as I progress through!

On another note; Savannah Davidia Grace Taylor was born two weeks ago tomorrow (May 1st) to the Taylor family and I am happy to be doing a family photoshoot with them tomorrow! Wish me luck! ;)

Until next time...Happy shooting!
