A Christmas shoot for another photographer

camz · Dec 4, 2011

A fellow photographer wanted a christmas shoot with her family but she didn't bother with the traditional shots for her christmas cards. Everyone of us shooting portraits have done probably a ton of these during this time of year, I'm glad she wanted something different and she had us have just a go at it. t'was fun. Highlights from today:

Looks great Camz! Nice to see some fun stuff for Christmas cards besides the usual.

Out of the ordinary is good. Thanks Dee!

Cool pictures but the majority of these seem over exposed.

Hot momma! Nice set man. Not sure about #3. Looks like something I would delete

. Doesnt look sharp compared to 4.

Love em!

VIP - Yeah I tend to overexpose a bit compared to the general. This one I did even more.

Schwetty - Dude good eye. My 5D was having AF issues so I had to go with MF practically the whole shoot, must've missed the focus on this one. I looked at the set and have a couple more with it focused. Thanks!

Kristal - Thanks!

Considering how I feel about Christmas, I dig doing something different... but where do I get a Xmas feeling out of those?

Nothing here says Xmas to me.

Exactly!

She's placing the images on a Christmas card template. Regarding the Christmas theme, that's about all she wants.

I like #8 for the Family Photo. And I really like the non-traditional photos for the Holiday Hello Card idea.

Isn't it nice to shoot other photographers! You have to pose them very little compared to the rest of the world.I mean, they already know what to do with their hands, etc.

Nice shots. #3 seems a little soft to me, but maybe it's me or my old eyes!

Nah it's not your eyes at all. It's my shot...lol. I missed focus completely on this, I had to go MF on most of the session. But the good ones have been delivered in a coffee table actually last week. We had a few more for them to select from that were focused.

Thanks for pointing that out.
