Black and White and Children…{Palm Harbor Photography}

I just love the pure emotion that comes through with black and white images.  The photography part is kind of melted away and you are left with pure art.  The expressions on people come through without the distraction of the color surrounding them.  Little “P” came in last week and besides the color studies we did of him, I took a few with the intention of turning them black and white.  He is a very happy child, so many of them brought out his silly side.  But then we got a very serious one and I love that too!  Compare the high key (mostly white) and the low key (mostly black) and see what kind of a difference that makes in how you perceive the images and what emotions that brings out in you.  Enjoy!

 

A blast from the past…{Palm Harbor Children’s Photographer}

Lauren’s mom asked to post these on her new facebook page and I had to go through files to find them.  These were taken in 2004 and she is now 13!  I had forgotten how lovely they were and really timeless.  I can’t wait to see her the next time!  She must be even more beautiful by now!

Senior Session…{Palm Harbor Senior Photography}

Had a killer session with Jordan this past week.  We did an indoor studio session as well as an outdoor on location in downtown Dunedin, Florida.  Jordan has a real presence in front of the camera.  These came out great!  Have a great senior year Jordan!

High School Senior {Palm Harbor Photographer}

Tom came in this morning and we created his High School Senior portraits for him.  He had already gone to the mandated photographer and decided to come see me for portraits that he really liked.  As with all my clients, I had asked ahead of time what his interests were and it was computers and electronics.  Now, I’ve added in cars, trucks, motorcycles, cats, dogs, swim gear, surf boards, …  but this was my first Ipad, or should I say Droid…no I pad’s allowed in his household!  I just love this image and I will dare say that Mom and Dad see him often like this, with just the glow of a monitor lighting up his face.  I think he looks really handsome here, and it reveals a bit of his personality.  Here is your sneak peek.  See you next week for the rest of the portraits!
