Nicole at Vino Con Brio

The second path of photos with Nicole were done at the Vino Con Brio wedding sight out at their vineyards.

We spent the most time at this location and used three different outfits.

I played around with the editing, giving some photos a "golden vintage" look. I have included the copy of the "golden vintage" and original color edited version.

Let me know which edits you like better.
















I think I'm leaning towards the "golden vintage" versions.



One reason why I really wanted to come to Vino Con Brio was the vintage red truck they have. We took a ton of shots near and on the truck, but the lighting was an issue. I think some still turned out well.

I hid the sun behind Nicole.
Here is what we I was looking into most of the time for the truck.

Nicole at Jessie's Grove Winery

Nicole is a sweet girl who wants to break into modeling and we went out the other day to three different locations and had tons of fun.

Here are the best shots from the first location: Jessie's Grove Winery.




The was a big issue, but we made due.

More to come from the Vino Con Brio and downtown Woodbridge.

Pet Photography {Citrus and Sobe}

Pet photography and has been something I've been told I should do since my zoo photos have turned out so well.

I put James' two lizards in the studio in a box and came out with these shots.

The yellow-orange gecko is Citrus and his eyes are awesome.

This is a baby breaded dragon and his name is Sobe.

Woodbridge shoot with Jonathan

I took Jonathan out to the Woodbridge area I scouted out for upcoming sessions.
These shots were all taken between 9 to 10 a.m. and most within shaded areas.

Every now and then I can get him to laugh to get a real looking smile.

We also had some fun and I added fun editing to it as well.







Despite the sunglasses in this shot there wasn't much sun.


I loved all the different textures we found in Woodbridge.


This was fun -- Trying to get him to stay on the tilt -- He just waited for my count and slid down.

He doesn't have very many different poses. I should have gotten him to bring a few different shirts to change up the colors.

The wood texture was a nice change of pace within all the bricks.

Different angle with the camera.


This shot was taken in direct sunlight, but with fun angles and shadows.



Jeweliana's first day of pre-school

It was Jeweliana's first day of school today and I went along with my brother to take some shots. Some were done at home before we left and some at the school.

This one was absolutely my favorite from the day. She was just leaning up against the wall at the school and I just put the camera in front and snapped a few.

At the gate of the school.

I hate the harsh lighting but I loved how she turned around and looked at her teacher at the door. I took a shot at her outside the door but the lighting was so odd (harsh). It hit her right under the her chin.

At home and not with the best lighting, but my mom will be happy.

Another shot at home.
