Maureen + Nick

As requested, here are a few more of the car. The first two are Kelsey's images (she shot for me, and is my girlfriend).

 

CF Card 2, photo #3: I'm curious about your style (which I happen to generally like very much!). Why do you leave so much empty space above the subjects in this and one or two other photos? Does this create some visual, emotional, and/or other effect of which I am unaware? I haven't decided if I like it or not. Right now I'm just really curious to learn your intention. Thanks.

 

Thanks for asking, Jaemie.

I only shoot with prime lenses, using prime lenses allows me to have the most control over subject isolation (IMO). The primes I used on this wedding were a 35mm f/1.4L, 50 f/1.4, 85 f/1.4, and a 135 f/2L. In some of my images, I like to take it a step further and isolate them with negative space, so that they are noticeable, yet not directly placed in the middle of an image. It's just a personal stylistic crop that I like to do, and enjoy the look of.

I hope that answered your question for you.

 

Thanks for answering; that's a very good explanation. I appreciate your commitment to the control a prime-only approach offers. I'll keep this in mind as I look at your other photos.

 

Whoa! That's a totally bitchin' example of classic American automotive muscle. Very cherry. :thumbup:

 

Great series of photographs four and seven is my favorite and also good other. Thanks for sharing !!

 

Nice work, my friend. Though people are not "my thing" I am always inspired by your work.

Ditto on #7

I also really like CF#2 - 6

Great work!!

 

I agree! They were quite smitten as they were driving this piece of American Muscle.

Thank you Cpi!

Thanks bud! Hope we can get together and shoot some day!

 

Did you, just for fun, try to place your sig in the balck hole?


From what I can tell nicely captured wedding, I'm sure the couple will be very happy!

 

I haven't tried that, but it's a good idea. Perhaps I will! Thanks, 'Paq.

I do have a few photobooth images that I haven't shared yet. I was laughing as I was editing them.




*Guy on the left in the teal was absurdly drunk the entire night. Before I even got there. It was hilarious, and sad.

 

The the photobooth shots. The processing is nice too!

 

Thanks Jess! Not sure what "the the" means, but thank you!
