Middlebrooks Family Shoot

Photo shoot from this past weekend. Man it was hot. Early morning or late afternoon is what more experienced photographers suggest…I will
listen next time. I am still perfecting my style, but I am well on my way.

Wedding Shoes

My project for today was to take photos of my wife's wedding shoes. We actually did not have one in our wedding photos from the photographer. I used the natural light coming through the blinds instead of a flash and I placed them on a coffee table. You may notice a little blue tint on the shoe. I am still working on removing that since the shoes are white but I think this is a good start.

Photo number two. Different point of view. I like this one better. I placed the shoes on the floor next to the window. Again, I didn't use a flash.

Snow Anyone??

I snapped this photo on the first night of Atlanta's recent snow/ice storm. I used the automatic settings on my camera. I'm new to photography so I am just learning about focal lengths, f-stops, aperature size, etc...so of course the picture could have been much better. I opened my front door, stuck the camera out, and snapped the picture. Just wait until I really know what I'm doing. I welcome any suggestions as far as what I can do to improve the image in Photoshop or Lightroom. The picture has been deleted from my camera,

Weapon of Choice

 I have always felt that I had an artistic eye. I've been taking photos for years, but not very seriously. So this Christmas, my wife bought me a Sony Alpha A330 DSLR camera which influenced me to step my game up. Now I find myself scouring the internet to find info on photography and camera settings and lighting techniques. Get where i'm going with this? I am neck deep into photography thanks to her.
