I know, I know...

Yeah, another pic of Hannah. But she's just so cute! This was right before she freaked out because I wouldn't let her drive. I think we're in for it. The reason I used this one as the photo for today was because it is so well exposed and so sharp. That doesn't happen too often with cell phones, eh?

Sunday Nap

Sunday is a good day for naps. Lori and Hannah took one this afternoon.
I usually shoot on the Toy Camera setting in Vignette but this time I wanted something lighter, more pastelly, more Sunday afternoon napish. So I did the faded colors. I'm still shooting almost everything square. I think it's just because it's so different from the normal framing I do with my SLRs.

Joust

We heard about the renaissance fair from a friend on facebook. Having never been to one, we decided to check it out. It was much, much larger than we thought. We had a good time and I took a lot of photos.

The Best Teacher in the World Retires!

Now I can't prove it but I honestly believe that my mom is the best teacher in the world. Why to I think that? Mostly because she's my mom, but also because she is the most loving person I know and she genuinely cares about her students. She works incredibly hard and is basically the coolest person I know.
I shot this with Vignette but left my normal Toy Camera setting for the Velvia setting. The big issue with cell phone cameras is that they typically lack contrast and saturation. This setting adds both and gives you pretty amazing performance and some awesome images!

Who is it?

I have done quite a bit of real estate photography and continue to do it on a limited basis, mostly just for a few clients. This is the door of a home I shot today. I found the old-school peep hole concept cool.
As has become the norm, the image was shot with Vignette in the toy camera mode. That's the mode that I typically keep the phone in for if I just need to shoot something quickly. I like what it does to the normally dull cell camera photos.
