More Zachary – March 20, 2014

More pictures of Zachary. The top image is over sharpened, and the contrast is boosted up, except on the skin tones. Zachary is such a good little man. ALWAYS so happy. He is looking at ….. his dad! If he sat still for more than a minute or two, I could get him to look anywhere I wanted, as long as his dad was there. Even crawling and running around, he always knew where dad was. DJ and Zachary were a blast to photograph. Hope you enjoy the pictures!!! All images shot with the Canon 5D Mark II, EF 24-105 F4 IS L lens, a Canon 580 EX II Speedlight camera mounted for flash fill.


Estrella Mountain Ranch – March 19, 2014

I took a couple of shots out at Estrella Mountain Park, around the lake. Weekends there are photographers all over the place. I was out here on a Monday, and not a lot of photographers. Lots of very beautiful areas for portraits. Canon 5D Mark II, EF 17-40 F4 L lens, both images at 17mm. I was wanting to be very wide.


Jump! – February 3, 2013

Jump

Nick & Cara’s Engagement pictures were a blast to shoot. I had them both jump several times, and “enhanced” the height in Photoshop for this image. I had wanted a full frame Digital Single Lens Reflex, (DSLR) for quite a while, and was pretty sure I was going to get one. I had borrowed BJ Starr’s 5D Mark II and had shot it for a couple of weeks.  I picked up mine on the day of this photo shoot, but opted to use BJ’s because I knew it was set up and dialed in. March 24, 2012. A really good day! Off camera 580 EXII to the right on a stand, triggered with a ST-2E. ISO-50, 1/160 sec, 28mm.
