Celebration of 50 year together

Last weekend I shot a personal project of my uncle-in-laws 50th wedding anniversary celebration. It was so beautiful and inspiring. Everything was perfect, the colors, family, friends, stories and love! We did group shots through out the whole ceremony as family or friends would show up. Of course in true southern fashion there was not a shortage of yummy delicious food and cake to be ate. I came out with a huge respect for event photographers let me tell you. I was exhausted after only 3 hours of shooting. It takes a lot more endurance then a 3 hour senior shoot. Here are some of the detail shots I captured just to show how beautiful it was.

Gangster? No ma'am a real gangster!

When this young man came up to me and said he wanted to do a gangster styled shoot. I thought no way. He told me "No ma'am, not a thug, a real gangster!!!" YES!!! Yes I can do that!!! We had so much fun styling and shooting this session. With the gold pinned suit and gold tie, complete with a fedora!!! Just check these out!!! Pretty awesome right??? What y'all think?

Whats on your photography bookshelf?

Some of the most useful books that I have are these two books. Understanding Exposure helped me out when I was just beginning. The book of Legal Forms I use all the time and keep it on hand for references. Some more books I use all the time are the 500 posing series. I look over them almost every session I have to get fresh ideas. These next two are older books that were given to me early in my photography journey. Photographing Children is not one that I would recommended today. It's outdated and has some controversial images for today's world. The Art of Black and White Photography is outdated but has some really good information and some great black and white photos. I love a good black and white. What photography books do love and hate?

No Script

Sitting here trying to think of my first blog post. I think I will just leave ya'll with this quote. I have no script, nothing planned out, just living day to day doing what I love, soaking in all the knowledge I can.
