Artist Portraits
I’ve been doing some portraits of our local artists, all members of the Firnew Farm Artists Circle. I’m also a member, so mine is below too :-). These are updates for the website, and for the artist’s use also. All are natural light, mostly digital but some film also. These people are crazy good at what they do. Most all are painters, but they let in the occasional photographer too ;-). Click any of the photos below to go to the website and check out their work. There’s also information on upcoming shows. This is a small portion of the portraits. More to come.

Taylor
Taylor and her mom came by a few weeks ago. Taylor is the reigning Little Miss Lynchburg 2014, and needed an updated headshot for the Miss Virginia program. We did some photos indoors in my little “studio”, and also went outdoors for some. It was one of the RARE warm days this winter!
These last two are black and white film. We’d finished the session and I asked if she’d mind doing a few more just so I could shoot a little bit of film. All of her pictures were just fantastic. She just doesn’t take a bad photo. But this first one below just blows me away. It’s one of my favorite photos of all time.

Some totally random photos
Most of these you’ve seen on Facebook or Instagram, a few you haven’t. I never seem to get around to posting them here. If you’re tired of winter, you may not want to look since there are some snow photos in there 🙂 (All of these were taken with a DSLR, no iPhone photos. Those will be in a different post.)
Regarding the two above, when you get a new camera, the first thing you should do is set the date and time!! 🙁

…..or Samantha 🙂
Edited to add the photo below. Not sure how I possibly missed posting it the first time. It’s one of my all time favorites….parting the clouds…..
And, we shot a little black and white film during her session also. Love the “feel” of film. It just looks different than digital.

It was a somewhat chilly day in November, a little windy, but we survived quite well! 🙂 Thank goodness we had a nice warm sun!! And, the leaves stuck around a little longer this year, so we had some nice color in the backgrounds too.

And, one more, I shot some 35mm black and white film at a couple of my last senior sessions this year. Different look than digital. Film is where I started. I love how “clean” digital is….but sometimes, it’s just TOO clean. I like the softness of film, particularly for portraits. I’ll be shooting more of it.

I don’t usually write anything when I post portraits from a session…because I’m not a writer and would just sound stupid…but I definitely wanted to thank Torie for this session. She had the winning bid on a portrait session that I donated to the Madison County Education Foundation’s MARCH MADNESS Fundraiser this past spring. We had a perfect afternoon for the session, and they could not have been easier to work with!
