This past weekend I had the opportunity to shoot more members of my family and thought that I would use this time to hone my skills shooting wide open (aperture at 1.8f). Some of my current favorite photographers use this technique with close up portraits to achieve a dreamy look while using a very short depth of field. Of course I also used other portrait techniques as well.









In other news, my new revamped website should be launching with in the next couple weeks and I'm really excited about it. Going along with that I will be starting a "photography only" blog in which I'll post a new picture of my personal work almost daily. This will, of course, replace my posting pictures on this blog which will go back to my random meanderings. I'll make an announcement here as well as my other places (twitter, facebook, myspace, etc.) when that happens.

Cheers!
