Nature Art Shots and a Casting Call. . . sort of

Recently, I was asked if I would take flower/nature shots to go on the walls of a local law office. I don't want to show the traditional, boring, macro, flower in the center of the frame shot you see all the time. I want my shots to be interesting enough to make people stop and think, "hmmmm...that's cool!" :-P

So, yesterday, literally minutes before the thunderstorm arrived, I took pictures of the remaining flowers left on my deck. (In Texas, we get one, maybe two, months of Spring. Once May hits the flowers start to wilt and die. :-( ) The lighting was PERFECT and I was so pleased with the exposure that all I did in photoshop was adjust the contrast a bit and voila!






I was also asked to provide images of groups of children and families of all different ethnicities playing, goofing off, etc. I have several families in my gallery that will probably be included in the portfolio but I need more! So, in the next week or so I will be posting a casting call of sorts. If you have any friends or family that would like AWESOME pictures of themselves let them know that I have a great opportunity for them! (free session!)

Who keeps making the "pirate-y" comments? "Aar?" The flower pics are beautiful! I might need them to hang over my nifty green IKEA couch. Is this for Momma Heallen's law office? They have a lot of empty wall space now....
