Portraits

One of the areas I am weak in my photography are portraits. My paper also does not make good use of a good portraitopportunity. So, I have been making an effort lately to get stronger at them. This is one of the best attempts I have had in a long time. The subject a professional studio/portrait photographer, so I was nervouse doing this shoot, but I like the product.


This is my favorite, though at first the restroom sign location ticked me off, it doesn't bother me anymore. This was shot in a movie theatre where she has a showing. This was pretty much the only clean background, except for that sign. But I think it adds a little, only if it wasn't growing out of her head.

High School Graduations



High School Graduations. That time of the year has finally came and went. Now, usually they don't bother me too much, but having to cover about 15 graduation over a 2-week period, that's enough. I even had 3 in one day twice. I know I'm complaining, but.....On the bright side, it gace me time experiement and catch up on my sleep. Oh, I managed to get a few nice shots also. Here's just a few of my favorites.




Also a few of the speakers were pretty interesting. Like Colin Powell. Some of the other speakers were Hillary Clinton, Ben Afleck (not sure why) and the losing coach from the movie, Remember the Titans, the real guy, not the actor.
