Hard to believe it was just happenstance, eh? Sometimes I show up right when fate deems that someone should open the shutter.
Wow... busy times once November hits, for sure! I've still been active, though.
The nearby city of Tulsa held a Food Truck Festival, so I got to practice some street photography. This is one that I've had a chance to work with a little bit... still more to come from that.
Had a family portrait session this past weekend, though, and a lot of changes at work. Here are some of the portrait bit...
This look seems to be a popular editing style lately, so I've been practicing a bit. This is a lighter touch...
Then this shot (the family's idea, which lots of people immediately loved) has a bit heavier touch. I took quite a few shots, as the kids were rambunctious and moving constantly, and the parents, trying to wrangle the kids from afar, were moving their hands all over the place... I ended up getting to practice both the new style AND some photoshop skills, as I took the pic that had the best "hands", then substituted from the pic that had the best "kids". I think it worked out well, yeah?
Of course, with a larger family, not everyone is going to be thrilled all of the time. It allows me to capture a moment or two outside of the "traditional".
For the record, he warmed up to me in no time, so all was well!
