I've just finished editing Mark and Laura's pictures from Monday.
I usually would of finished editing a shoot of that size within a couple of hours, but after allot of recommendations, I decided to download the trial of Lightroom2, I always knew that this would slow my workflow down because there are more features, most of which I'm addicted to using already.
When I first started using Lightroom1, I would often over edit my pictures, so hopefully, if I am over editing my pictures with LR2, I'll calm down soon and carry on with my usual editing style.

This shoot was quite tricky to edit in my opinion actually. I usually find it quite easy, but something was slowing me down and I couldn't make up my mind about how I would process certain images.

Anyway we started shooting around Blaise Estate, Bristol, which is beautiful and only walking distance from our home.

As the light started to go, and the rain came in we went to Park Street, Bristol to use the wet roads and car lights and bright shop windows to our advantage.
Next time I shoot on Park Street, I'll bring an assistant with me as I could of done with some off camera lighting.

This Saturday I was supposed to cover an event but that has fallen through unfortunately. If you fancy a shoot this very Saturday (7th March) then drop me a line!

Enjoy the pictures!

A few months ago, our friend Mel asked me if I would do a photoshoot with her brothers and sister as a present to their parents for their anniversary. Of course, I left it far too late, the anniversary was today (Happy Anniversary Dave and Caroline!), and we only did the shoot yesterday.
Mel came round today and put the pictures in the frames and wrapped them all up.

We had a few locations lined up, and honestly, we could not of chosen a better (and colder) day. It was beautiful! I've never seen Bristol look so amazing!

Enjoy these pictures!

Baby Sam loves the cake..

I really loved yesterdays shoot, it was awesome!!
If you would like a shoot similar to this please contact me, I love doing them. They're just a load of fun!

Techy Stuff:
Again, I'm still addicted to using my little 50mm f1.8 lens, so most of yesterdays pictures were taken with it, but I loved using my 70-200mm f2.8 lens, I don't get to use it much to be honest, but when I do, it never lets me down!
The 2nd, 3rd and 4th pictures were taken with it. Look what it does to the background and the foreground, it just pulverises it into a smooth tasty puree!...sorry.

Hope you're all having a great Sunday afternoon.
I'll do my very best to provide all you wallpaper junkies with a fresh dose tomorrow!
