Week 42


My friend Aidee asked if I could do some fun portraits of her and her kids in celebration of Halloween. I used my flash on the first two inside her house so I had to clean up the background since I used a textured white wall as the backdrop. I had three final photos for the Black Swan shoot, but I only posted one here because they all had the same text and seemed repetitive in one post. I have my friend Carlos to thank for helping me find the correct font, which ended up being a stylized Trajan Pro (he's a genius). As for the Wizard of Oz photo we had originally planned to shoot it at Memorial Park on the bridge, but the kids had had enough of our photo shenanigans so I had to improvise and add a fake background post production. This one shot is actually three different pictures composed into one. Thinking on it now,  I would have shot them all in even lighting to make it look less super imposed. It was a fun, learning experience though, and Aidee loved the finished photos.
