So I spent an hour creating portraits in my backyard. Portraits of carnations, plumeria, henna and the other plants around my home. And, my exercise was limited to the use of a small point-and-shoot consumer camera. No professional camera was used here. No professional lens. Just a small Canon SD1200. The lesson here is: 'The camera is only as good as the person using it to create images.' As an example, since I have a word processor, am I a better writer than Steinbeck, Conrad, Tolkien or Wolfe? No. My mind doesn't put words together like they did. But my mind does see the patterns of light, shape and color you'll see in this video. Enjoy. Come back occasionally for new installments.

As a professional photographer it's important to grow professionally and artistically everyday, every month, every year. That's why in the past two years I've spent five solid weeks in weeklong seminars learning from some of the more creative portrait photographers in our business. I've spent a week each with Arthur Rainville & Jennifer Hudson, Tony Korbel, Joseph & Louise Simone, Trevon Baker and Carl Caylor, all disciples of Don Blair (you'll notice, I'm vicariously learning his styles through others, since he's no longer with us.) ]]> http://www.gradportraits.com/blog/born_anew_as_a_photographer_ar.shtml http://www.gradportraits.com/blog/born_anew_as_a_photographer_ar.shtml Blog arthur coast diego graduation high hudson jennifer picture portraits professsional rainville san school senior studio west Wed, 08 Jul 2009 09:32:05 -0800 ]]> http://www.gradportraits.com/blog/your_house_is_in_the_path_of_a.shtml http://www.gradportraits.com/blog/your_house_is_in_the_path_of_a.shtml Blog art fine home images love music photographer pictures portraits professional test Fri, 03 Jul 2009 09:34:51 -0800 Download file ]]> http://www.gradportraits.com/12_points_of_eagle_scout_portr.shtml http://www.gradportraits.com/12_points_of_eagle_scout_portr.shtml Wed, 17 Jun 2009 09:32:18 -0800 Business Portraits With Flexibility Quality, and Lots of Background.
