Woman’s Best Friend

Today’s awesome photograph comes to us from Robert Medina of Medina Photography. In the photographer’s own words:

We did this shot as a promo for an upcoming photo session at a local dog boutique. The owner asked me if I would be interested in photographing pets in her store to generate some buzz to have people come in. I thought about it and suggested we include people as well. I wanted to tell the story of pets in our lives, not just pets in front of a camera. She loved the idea and this was the shot chosen for the campaign. It is of my Wife Lara and our dog Kingston.

Dancing in Barn

 

Today’s photograph comes from Carisa Kozicki of CK Photography. In the photographer’s own words:

This is a photograph of the wedding couple dancing in the bride’s parents’ barn. The family lovingly restored the barn for her wedding. My assistant and I had so much fun photographing this unique and personalized wedding. Everyone, especially the bride, was so relaxed. I really wanted to show the movement and energy that everyone was feeling at the wedding, so I kept my shutter speed a bit low to capture some of the movement and to showcase the barn’s great interior.

Safe With You

Today’s photograph comes from Lee Ziegler Photography.  In the photographer’s own words:

This image is from an engagement session I recently took of Stephanie and Zach. They were an awesome couple to work with. What I was trying to capture here was how they felt when they were in each other’s arms. When I asked them that question, they both replied “safe”.

I Am Ready

This awesome photograph comes to us from MDTorres Photography’s Maria D. Torres. In the photographer’s own words:

This was one of the first shots in a wedding session. It was taken in the bride´s bedroom while she was looking at the mirror just after being makedup at home for her wedding.

I loved the reflection of her face. I shut it just in time, without any preparation as I was just coming into her room to take her out for her bride session.

Just a little dodging and burning in Photoshop to enhance her face and a nudge down on color saturation to give it this ancient look.

As I discovered later at home, her eye was reflecting also in the mirror´s frame.

Sunbathing Doberman

Today’s awesome photograph comes from Kansas City Wedding Photographer Felipe Pereira. In the photographer’s own words:

We’ve recently started having springlike weather, and as a result we’ve left our back door open for our dogs to go in and out of the house.  One of my dogs decided to lay out on the deck and soak the sun’s rays.  I noticed this and quickly grabbed my camera, since she could decide to do something else at a moments notice, and laid down on the kitchen floor to get some photos. I’m sure she’s keeping an eye on her mom, who she worships. Working with my own dogs keeps me sharp, because of the fact that they go from doing one thing to another so quickly; anything interesting they do can be missed if I don’t adjust to the situation.

City Love

Today’s awesome photograph comes to us from Jamie Weiss of Jamie Weiss Photography. In the photographer’s own words:

I love this image I captured during a group shoot in Chattanooga, TN. I really like the chemistry of the couple and the metallic background displaying the fact that we are in Chattanooga. This couple “modeled” for a group of about 15 photographers who were all shooting them at once, so at times it was interesting trying to get in and get the angle that you wanted without getting in someone else’s shot. I had also just purchased a new camera and was experiencing some difficulty getting the settings just the way I wanted and I left the shoot feeling like I didn’t get very good images. But after downloading them and taking a second look, there are several from this shoot that are my all time favorites and this is one of them

Flying High

Today’s awesome photograph comes to us from Kari Douma of Kari Douma Photography. In the photographer’s own words:

Scott and Laurie were such a fun couple who had a fantastic wedding. They were married on top of Crystal Mountain at the Crystal Mountain Resort in Michigan. All the guests rode the ski lift up to the top of the mountain for a mountain high ceremony! This image shows the excitement of the day, and the emotion that Scott and Laurie had that day, sharing it with their friends and family. Here in this image they are greeting one of their friends as they were descending the mountain in the chair lift

Lough Talt

Today’s awesome photograph comes to us from Kevin Hart Arps. In the photographer’s own words:

This photo was taken on a crisp day at Lough Talt in Southern Ireland. I had to climb down a rough/wet/slippery bank to take it but had my tripod for support . I am currently engaged in taking photos of the North West of Ireland leading to a book being published. Camera: Canon Eos 400d, lens Canon 10 – 22.
