Laura and Jon | Engagement Party
Laura is a friend and coworker of a friend of mine and she hired me to shoot her engagement party. My finance works Saturday’s so I brought my good friend Mike along with me instead to assist and second shoot. We were both extremely impressed with the party, everything was set up beautifully and everybody was super friendly. Laura and Jon were especially welcoming and great people to be around. We really had a great time shooting this event.
Mochi | Pet Photography
This is my first crack at pet photography, not including the random shots I take of my two cats around the house. This set is another from the free photo shoot Facebook blast I did a few weeks ago. Ryan and Chrissie are good friends of ours and were second to respond. They were actually the first photo shoot I ever did back when I shot an engagement session for them about 3 years back. And now again they’re another first of mine by graciously allowing me to take photos of their beautiful dog Mochi.
Grilling at Mike’s with my new Rokkor 58mm f1.2
Nothing all that exciting about this. Some of us were bored so we decided to hang out with a BBQ, some beer, and a deck of cards. A typical but always fun night.
But what made this night a little different was that I got to extensively play with my newest toy, the Rokkor 58 1.2. Shortly after I got my 5dm2 and paired it with the 24-70 2.8L I quickly realized that I needed something a little smaller and lighter to carry around when I wanted to pack light.
