Monthly Archives: September 2012 While working on a presentation for the PPSO, I unburied this image. It’s one of the very first photography assignments I ever had. Sometime around 1990 I was working dutifully on a photography project for the 4-H and had the task of photographing our small troupe (my brothers and mom, two older kids whose mother...  I’ve photographed these siblings for several years now and this is the first session where I’ve noticed more dramatic changes in their personalities. When you look out across our field right now, the trees are mostly green, yet there are patches of vibrant reds and golds, foretelling what is yet to come as the season...  I know it might sound crazy to some, but I love a gloomy, rainy day. Diffused light falls evenly & eerily over the trees, grass glistens with raindrops and I feel comforted by a thick, insulating blanket of clouds up above. These gray days are perfect to curl up on a couch with a cup...  A rescheduled portrait session meant Ryan and I had time to enjoy this first morning of autumn by strolling around the Granville Farmers’ Market. Leaves are starting to change in the village (as well as here at home) and there was enough of a chill in the air to wear a jacket and scarf. Last...  I can feel my heart flutter. Mr. FedEX just delivered the corner samples for our new custom framing collection. My fascination with this company began during college, before I discovered photography, when I worked as a custom framer. Our “shop” only carried a few styles of these Italian-made frames, but I can still remember how...  We were blessed with a beautiful evening for senior portraits following a morning filled with rain. It was such a lovely night that our session ran a bit into overtime, photographing even after the sun fell beneath the horizon. A lover of dance and classical music, this girl has big ambitions for her future; including...  We held our last educational event of the year here at Atelier last night. “Ice Queen” was the theme for this creative shootout and the learning process is as much for myself as it is for the photographers who attend. For example, I’ve now found a way to get magical, wintry images on even the...  I loved the style of this Wellington senior: long, wavy locks, a face kissed by freckles, musical tastes that line right up with my own playlist, a love of travel, and a sophisticated simplicity in her clothes (I knew I’d be all right when I saw a Ladybird bag in the car). And, one of...  Ryan and I are back in Ohio after a trip to Kansas City for the latest After Dark photography conference. Here I taught classes on Defining Your Brand & Style, photographing children, adding more artfulness to maternity portraits, sharing some of my personal workflow in Photoshop, incorporating water into creative imagery and another round of...  The title of this post pretty much sums up this Upper Arlington high school senior. She is one of the most genuinely sweet teens I think I’ve photographed. Her friends say they can see her being a preschool teacher in the future just like her mom (she’s also possibly interested in the medical field, another... |
