Editing takes me so long to do, mostly due to my procrastination.  But, anyways, here is my latest session which I did for a great friend of mine!  I really enjoyed photographing him.  He was so easy!

I finished up this family session lastnight.  I love the way the family pictures turned out..I posted my favorites.  We had more posed ones too, but I personally prefer the more relaxed, candid shots. The photos of just the girls didn’t turn out so well.  I noticed they were dark on my LCD, but I was having a horrible time keeping me shutter speed up above 100.  Even at a high ISO and low Ap..so anyways, they were out of focus and so grainy.  I should have taken them to better light, I don’t know what I was thinking!  Lesson learned I suppose.  I will be re-shooting them sometime this week now.  Tomorrow I have two sessions, so excited!

I must say, I love doing senior sessions! They’re just so enjoyable for me. After this I did a family of four, and they are definitely more work. Anyways, these were all shot in manual in RAW format, which I absolutely love! It was a breeze to proof these images! I thought RAW was going to be so complicated but it was so simple.

Last evening my aunt took a family picture of us.  I was so happy, it was exactly what I wanted!  Well…me  being so forgetful, I set the settings, and never checked the ISO.  I had it way up from taking pictures in the house and was comparing noise levels from the D40 and D70.  So these pictures are quite horrible..I put them in b&w, and it helped some.  They’re just so so so grainy!  I guess we will have to do it again…I was just so excited to hang it up in our new place!  Such a dissapointment for me, and it’s all my fault.  Oh, the last one is of my aunt and uncle.  I love it!

FINALLY…this session is completely edited. I had so many pictures to edit, I am so glad its done. A few days ago I did a mini session with my nieces and nephew, once I am all through those I will post them.

We are moving Tuesday, can’t wait!

I really need to make myself some actions because I am taking way too long to edit this session.  Plus every photo has so many problems (my own fault…that is what practice sessions are for, right??) so that’s not helping me much!
