Family photos: Family photographer Easton, MA

I am playing catch up on a bunch of blog posts.  I was holding out for awhile so that I didn't ruin anyone's Christmas presents. Needless to say over the next few days I will be blogging a lot.

This family was so much fun to photograph.  And one of my first large groups to do. I believe there are 18 of them.  It was so much fun.  And I truly think I love photographing large groups. It was a great session. I We got them all in and just as we where finishing up the skies opened up and it started to pour.

 

Photography Challenge Week 8: Bokeh Shapes

This challenge did not go quite as planned but I guess that is why it is a challenge. I finally figured out why it didn't come out as planned.  I will be redoing this later on in the week. 

Photography Challenge Week 7: Light Painting South Eastern, MA Photographer

I have been waiting for this challenge.  I had it in my head how it would go.  I thought I was going to be able to use my flash light for the whole thing.  I thought I would be able to write words with it.  Guess what writing words with a big flash light doesn't work.  So off I went to staples today to buy a small flash light or a laser pointer.  I ended up buying these really cool small flash lights with glow stick bottoms.  I think this will be great for light painting.  I didn't have time to use them yet but I promise a post later this week with my new light painting photos.  This is  a fun concept and I cant wait to try them at a session. 
For this I had to use what was on hand though.  So I used the big flash light and my willow tree Nativity set figures.  I light the flash light right over mary to give it a spot light effect.  then swirled the flash light fast to illuminate the other figure just a little. 

Photography Challenge Week 6: Backlighting, South Eastern MA photographer

This challenge was a quick one for me.  I am glad there was inside options as it has been far to cold for me to do outside work.   This weeks challenge was all about back lighting with any light source.  At first I tried my daughters night light but that was just not enough so I used a small led flash light.  I really liked the results and I can not wait to try this again.  Will be fun to do at a wedding.

Photography Challenge Week 5: Starry Night Sky, Taunton, MA

This challenge was a difficult one.  Not only do you need to get your setting just right but you need the perfect night to get the stars just right.  I loved trying this challenge. I found the challenge to be with light pollution   Some day I will get myself to the beach or the middle of a field somewhere on a very starry night and get some great shots. For my first try I think they came out pretty good.  I can't wait to try this again.
