WPPI Part #3

Ok so the last blog post was a little long and honestly I am trying to write one post for every day I missed and well since i missed 10 and I have wrote 2 well I still have 8 to go. So i won’t be writing these super long posts because then I’d really be in trouble

So as I mentioned, Jayme was my partner in crime for most of WPPI and she was also the poor person who had to listen to me ramble on and on about being inspired and wanting to shoot something asap. I actually stood around in different places looking for people that I wanted to shoot and see if I could work up the nerve. For the most part I was chicken (learned my lesson though – this will change next year and I should have random photos of all different people)  but I did manage to ask one couple if I could take their photo. I was just inspired  by the way that the sculptures and grounds were at Ceasers at night so I managed to ask one couple if I could take their photo – they were on their way to a show so they literally only had five minutes but I managed to take a few photos. Here’s two samples . . .

I just love that everything was lit so well that even at night we could take photos without flash

Thanks again to you both for your co-operation

Leslie & Mitch . . .

Leslie & Mitch are long time friends from high school. Mitch and I used to have our spare at the same time and play cards with a bunch of other people and talk about Zelda. Leslie is also my wonderfully talented hair dresser that comes in as well for “model days”. I’ve done photos for them before out at Merritt Island but this time around they wanted something for Christmas so we did a few shots in the studio and one of my favorites of them which was just outside my studio on a brick wall.

Slideshow of recent shoot

Hey one and all so here’s the first real post – my website is live! wohoooo and among all the other new and funky programs and equipment I have bought in the last little while – I got showitfasts web slideshow program and I have to say I love it! Check out a recent slideshow done for a client getting married in May – these are the engagement photos and the bride loved the slideshow – I have a good feeling about this program…. click here to view the slideshow. In other news I also did a couples portrait session with Jimmy and Brianne – Jimmy is a friend of my brother’s and is practically a member of the family at this point – so he came with his girlfriend Brianne to the botanical gardens (wearing the sweater my mom gave him for Christmas one year) and we got some really fun shots! On a side note Amanda Lachapelle Photography will be happy to welcome Brianne in January when she will start with us as a co-op student! Check out a few photos from the day
