Brooke and Mark Dec 10
Just one for now from Brooke and Mark’s September wedding at The English Inn.
Dave and Mel Dec 9
Here’s one frame from a wedding I’ll be blogging soon. Dave and Melanie were married in Grand Rapids and had the first ever wedding at The Reserve wine bar, which is one of my favorite places in the state.
I’m going to finish blogging my 2011 weddings before my 2012 weddings start in March. That’s the plan at least.
Sport cover shoot Oct 28
A little something different…
A few months back I shot this magazine cover for Sport magazine, but just recently picked up a copy to finally see it in person. The feature article was about the progression a soccer player goes through from youth if they are to end up playing college, professional, or Olympic soccer. On the left, the shot just as it came out of the camera, on the right, the terrific job they did making it a cover.
And since I know there are some fellow photo geeks following along, here’s the technical info.
Camera: Nikon D3 with Sigma 85mm and a 3 stop ND filter. 1/250, iso 200, f5.6.
Lighting: Scrim flying camera right covering subjects in shade. Einstein in 35″ octa camera right. SB800 high, back, and left of subjects. SB800 gelled warm in small SBIII softbox hidden by the adult subject and lighting the boy’s face.
A really fun break from weddings!
Kori and Adam Jul 24
Kori and Adam were married yesterday on Sugar Island near Sault Ste. Marie. I’m still up north so their preview on Facebook will be a few days late. This photo is from Friday night, and that’s Canada in the background.
yesterday… Jun 26
Yesterday Sophie and Vinnie got married and I just wanted to share this one frame (though there is more on my Facebook page). The girls were getting ready at the beautiful The Henry hotel, and Vinnie stopped by to drop off some champagne for later. That’s Vinnie on the phone, and that’s Sophie in front going to put the champagne in the fridge. I just love the way he’s looking at the woman he’s hours from marrying. This to me is the power of the photograph: the ability to freeze a moment and an emotion that no one else even noticed and make it a part of history.
