09.10.07 - larkins in dc


Maybe i'll start doing title pics for the shoots I do? The above shot is a reflection. My friend Daniel and his wife just got married over in Germany and are spending a few weeks here in the states. I got to take them to DC (part of the reason why I went on saturday, so I'd know where I was going)




lighting was so hard because it was pretty much dark and i don't have fast lenses and i'm not 100% comfortable with using my flash... i tried to give this a real vintage feel in the post.




i was dragging the shutter to get a good exposure and it gave this pic a nice soft focus.



i would call this the rock star pic



newlyweds are fun to shoot... :) look at that look she's giving him.


pretty standard shot... i like the backlighting


my favorite shot from the evening.


and the group shot as requested.

i'm not sure if i'm actually going to shoot tonite because i have to work after work today and i haven't gotten a ton of sleep latley...

Title pics are a really good idea, especially if you're giving them a slideshow of some sort. I usually shoot an abstract of the surroundings they are in sometime during a shoot and then distress it in CS2.

These look great, by the way!

:o)
