Photography Fun

Things with photography have been really hopping the last few weeks. I have had several client shoots, and a couple of special projects I was asked to do. My last post was about one of those special projects - a fine art piece that I was commissioned to do. Havent heard yet how it was received, and I will be anxious to find out later this week. I am attaching an image I took of the finished piece. This top image isnt very good, but it does show the finished product. It is B&W all except the lamp post which I did as a minor color enhancement.
This 2nd image is the one the client first asked for - and then decided she didnt like it with the color enhancements. See if you can look at both images and see all of the changes I made...I am not sure which one I like better....

A couple other fun projects that I have done recently was that I was asked to be the photographer for a Tri-Stake Winter Ball and for our stake Live Nativity. Both were a total blast, and I will be working hard to get images edited before the end of the break, along with doing 2 more client shoots coming up this week. It is funny how things seem to come in spurts - I either have little to no work, or I have more work than I know what to do with. The blessing of having all that work right now is that it is going to help me purchase a new computer system. My laptop is in its last death throes. I have had to move all my work to the home computer, which has been challenging since the kids need that computer for school work. It will be good to have a system with all the extra bells & whistles and have my own work space back soon. My laptop may get a once over from Preston's brother and then handed off to Ceana or just as an extra school computer - that end of things is still in the works...

It has been fun, and challenging to use this special gift I have been given in so many different ways. Be sure to watch my FB work page and my website for all of the fun images to be posted soon!
