Happy New Year!

With the first post of 2010 I would like to wish you all a very happy new year!  I hope that 2010 brings nothing but goodness for everyone (too bad we know that'll never happen).  After having a couple of not-so-fantastic years, I am hoping this is the year of awesome for my husband and I.  Hopefully this is the year of buying our first home, getting my website up, reaching my photography goals, taking on more responsibility at work and so on and so forth.

I also hope that everyone had a fun and marginally responsible evening last night.

Back from Stittsvegas!

I am officially back from Stittsvegas!  I had a great time spending time with my family and friends and enjoyed the holidays thoroughly.  I hope you all enjoyed the break as well.

While in Ottawa, I had the opportunity to take pictures of Bob & Lisa who are engaged to be married!  Ah, young love!  I will be posting photos of them shortly, but I still have some unfinished business to attend to:  The last of my school photos.

:(

Here are the final pictures of my handsome husband from bring your own model to class night.

Bring your own model night

For our last class, we got to bring our own model.  I brought my husband, who is an aspiring composer for film and TV.  He will be creating a website soon, and will need a headshot of himself for that.

We decided to go with harsher lighting to make it more interesting.  In these shots, it's just him (he's so handsome)!  Next post will be him with his guitar.  But that won't be until the 28th of Dec because I am Ottawa bound!

Happy Holidays to all!

Happy holidays everyone.  Looking forward to goodness in 2010!

She's got a good Aura - part 3

So, this is the last pictures of Aura.  I really like these ones.  I think they are my favourite of her.  Mostly because to me they look like a classic painting.  I love the tones, I love her sari, I love the way she is posed in them.  She's so awesome!

Tomorrow I leave for Ottawa, so hopefully I'll get my pictures of Curtis posted before I leave.  My in-laws only have dial-up and my parents don't have the Internet at all (I know, I can hardly believe it myself!).  So that means that there will be very little internet activity from yours truly until my return to Toronto.  I will make sure to get something posted tomorrow before my early morning departure.

She's got a good Aura - part 2

Well, last night was my last class.  It was nice to see everyone's work.  I am sad that its all over... but well, it isn't quiet yet, because I still have pictures to show.

Here are some more of Aura.  I really like the way these turned out.  She was such a great model to work with, great personality, beautiful, fun and down to earth. And good news!  More of Aura tomorrow.

She's got a good Aura!

I'll be heading to class for the last time tonight at 6 o'clock.  Today is the day we show our final work.  There are no more pictures to be taken.   There is however some bright news:  I still have photos from 2 models left to share.

Today and probably for the next couple of days will be Aura.  I had a lot of fun with her, and as a result, have a whole bunch of pictures of her.  That and the fact that I got a LOT of time with her on the set, because 2 of the 4 other people taking pics with me didn't feel like taking pictures.  It was a nice change to have more time with the model.

Aura came to the studio with a couple of beautiful saris.  I had a lot of fun playing with that and allowed for a good variety of poses and shots.  She was great too and brought some ideas to help make some awesome pictures.  And I love her green ring!
