A nun in a blender!
Kids these days... what ever happen to a zebra with a sunburn? When taking family pictures, letting the boys tell jokes was the best distraction. I got some great candids of the boys interacting with Kristy and Tristan.

I think I caught a shooting star in the sky....

"Can We Play Video Games" The Boys

For one full day we dragged the boys around historic Pensacola... All they wanted to do was play video games. So I bribed them with a dollar each... WORKED! Actually they did really good. Izaak I think is gonna follow in his parents footsteps, cuz he was taking photos with is little camera all day too! He set his camera on a timer and took one of all of us... Gotta get that one from you, Kristy!

Tuesday.... Lighting & Filters

My assignment for today was Lighting and Filters. I was suppose to use many different types of lighting and produce a good image no matter how dark or harsh the lighting was. Also to play with filters if possible. With digital there isnt too many choices on camera.... most of it is done in photoshop instead. Since I spent my time in Florida this week that is doubling for my assignment also...Here you go.
Bright Full Sun Shot:
Izaak bright back lit... not a fan but fullfilled the assignment.
Full Sun no fillflash:

Backlit Silloette:
The next four is when the sun set low enough in the sky to go behind a building "Partially-Directly Diffused Light"



No FLASH! This night shot was refecting light off of the large white building next to them... Tristan's Favorite!
