Two months after I started working at the Down Syndrome Association of Greater St. Louis a mom came in and asked us to sponsor Lose The Training Wheels bike camp that helps children with disabilities learn to ride a two wheeler. It was a great experience and we continued to host the camp every year.
That mom was Gretchen and her pre-teen daughter is now a senior and I was honored to be able to shoot her senior portraits.
I even snuck in one of her with her younger brother. See all the photos from the session in my Smugmug gallery.
Shooting in the mid day sun typically not the best choice for portraits, but sometimes that is how things work out. A friend asked me to shoot senior portraits of her daughter, but the only time we could get together was at 2pm. Fortunately I had my assistant who was willing to be a stand in model so I could practice and test the high speed sync of my flash. Overall, I'm pretty happy. I'll post the senior photos soon.
For me the best way to have fun in the park involves my family and my camera. So when Mia wanted to go spend sometime in the park I grabbed my camera and hoped to be able to get a decent photo or two.
I was pretty pleased with this one of Mia jumping off the wall because I got it on the first try. Typically a shot like this would take three, four or more attempts to get the shutter speed, lighting, composure and camera movement just right.
In addition to jumping, climbing a tree turned out to be another good photo opportunity. Although I don't shoot much video, I had to get a short one of Mia working on her cartwheels and splits. The improvement she has shown since she started cheer classes has been dramatic and quite fun to watch.
I do a podcast on communication with my friend Vance of Articulate Ventures. The podcast is centered around communication and the patterns within. For the past couple episodes my daughters have helped me produce the image that goes along with the audio. This week's episode is on stereotypes, so I came up with this image. What do you think?
The previous weeks were about email and not hearing back from someone.
