Still keeping busy! Last week I was able to sneak in some business portraits for a local engineering firm where Chris works. An amazing group of people and a lot of fun to be around. I didn’t realize it, but I think engineering firms are soley responsible for keeping the energy drink companies in business. It’s a miracle Chris is able to sleep at all! Anyways, they all photograph’d very well and I’m excited to get the negatives over to them! Hope everyone has a great Monday! 
Are you a photographer? Would you like to join in on a group shoot sometime? Let us know! We are actively looking for some good locations and some local talent to do a little winter shootout! I already have some ideas brewing but haven’t made any plans yet. Drop us a line giving us your availability in February and we’ll make a go of it. Hope everyone is staying warm!
We are always fine tuning our post processing methods and I thought I’d take a second to share what we’ve been doing. I have been found guilty of spending too much time on one photograph trying to tweak it to perfection. When there are sometimes hundreds more photographs to go you quickly realize time is not going to allow you this luxury. What we’ve been doing are very simple adjustments that bring the photograph up to a state of good contrast and exposure. We’ll also throw in our secret recipe for sharpening and within 30-60 seconds we’ll have a photograph that is perfect to our eyes! Here are a couple of examples of some before and after shots that were around a quarter to half a stop underexposed. After a quick “curves” adjustment in photoshop and a little sharpening I’m ready to send it out.
Lana will be our beautiful example from a wedding we shot back in September for my good friend Kevin.
