Sunny & Walt: A Preview

Here's a sneak preview of a few images from Sunny and Walt's wedding last Saturday on Halloween. The day started out as a rain soaked mess, but thankfully the weather cleared up in time for to take some pictures outside on the deck.  If you can't tell from the photos, they had so much fun in front of the camera. I had a blast to say the least. It was the most fun I've had taking formals after a ceremony.  

Check out the slideshow at the very bottom of the post.

Moon Over Waco

*This post originally appeared on jonphillips.net on 8/8/09

I took this shot this morning at about 6:45. I noticed yesterday the way the moon was still shining bright and its position in the sky. I was driving by the water tower and knew I had to get out and get that shot. I was just glad the sky was clear this morning.

Camera settings: I was using my Canon 24-70mm L at ISO 100, f/2.8, and 1/60th of a second. I had to do some compositing in Photoshop because it was nearly impossible to get any details in the moon with one exposure. I also used the Topaz Adjust filter in Photoshop.

Help-Portrait

I've been reminded here lately just how fortunate I am.  This past year has been rough on a lot of families.  I think we've all felt the economic squeeze as our country has been going through this recession.  We all have had to cut back on a lot of things.  There's been some very inspiring things going on the photography community. There's the Help-Portrait project that Jeremy Cowart is gearing up for.  Zack Arias has also been kicking us photographers in the pants to get off our butts and serve our community.  Check out the video from Jeremy on this awesome project.  I know there are groups forming in Atlanta for this but if there's anyone in the West Georgia area that would like to work together here locally, please get in touch with me.
