My "Then and Now" thread...

To be honest, I'm a bit embarrassed looking back at some of my old photos. I don't remember when this was taken, but it must have been about 5 years ago. It was for a friend's sister. He basically gave me money to buy a flash to do the sister's wedding.

Some of my more recent work. I improved a little bit and just hope that I never stop improving... :blushing:

Amazing. You improved in a such short period of time.

The first two were SOOC? LOL jk.

awesome! I'm still at your 'before' stage! I DESPERATELY want to improve! Great work

I *WISH* they were SOOC. lol I follow your work way back when you had the other screen name (which I don't remember lol).

I think the toughest part for me was changing the way I think and see things, and then capture it exactly how I have it in my head. It's pretty disappointing when it doesn't come out the way you envisioned it, which happens to me a lot. lol

Oh gosh... I look back at my work when I first started taking pictures 2 years ago and I hang my head in shame.. lol

Great work!

Wowwwww! That is so amazing. What inspiration.. thank you for sharing. How long were you a photographer before you did your first wedding?

Wowzers. That town hall shot is to die for! I will have to bust out some of my oldies that I thought were freakin' amazing at the time.

I claimed to be a landscape photographer a couple of years before that. That wedding motivated me to venture into portrait/environmental portrait, which I hated.

I'd love to see.

I love the western theme photos so much!

So the question for those that can't see it, is what did you change in the two sets of photos?

Would also be interested in seeing these.

You've definitely improved! VERY impressed with your more recent work - but then I guess you charge a bit more now than you used to (and worth every penny).
