I didn't have a shoot this weekend and I finished my wedding photos from September. This shot was from this past weekend. I've isolated Madison by selecting the background and polarizing it. Finally I've converted the image with a chocolate black and white color.

Wedding
I finished processing the wedding pictures this past weekend and gave a preliminary cd to the couple. I am working on getting a pretty cd with custom labeling (lightscribe) for the bride and groom with a nice case for the cd. I am now working on custom template pictures for the bride, groom and family. Overall I am pleased with my first solo endeavor in wedding photography. I largely have to give credit to Marie at www.marieq.com for her mentorship that she has provided. I really believe that she is the preiminent photographer in the area!

Williams Wedding
I have been working as an assistant to Marie Q (she is awesome) in her weddings as she has been so gracious to allow me to work and learn with her. I wish I could post some of the photos from this past weekends shoot as the venue was soooo very cool! It was a backyard but was so detailed and groomed it would rival any outdoor venue in the area! Many cool photos are to be had from that shoot! Anyway, I am dillegently working on editing my wedding from a couple of weeks ago and posted another photo for the couple so they can see the progress... Hope you like what you see!

Kirsten
Kirsten was my first 'model' shoot. She was very fun and outgoing, easy to work with and I look forward to working with her again. She is is an up and comer in the industry and may be in a reality program on tv in the upcoming days. We took over 500 pictures during the shoot with many different outfits so watch out for many more pictures on my website at www.mike-jones-photography.smugmug.com

Waterfall (San Antonio) By the Riverwalk Mall
Shooting a wedding with Marie (http://www.marieq.com/) really opened my eyes again about never becoming complacent with camera skills. The photo shoot for the wedding showed some areas that I could definitely use improvement. Namely exposure settings. On our trip (a mini vacation to San Antonio) I shot 100% manual to get more proficient in utilizing the camera.
This is a shot of one of the many water fountains (waterfalls) of San Antonio. I love the linear shots and the feeling that they convey.
Thank you again Marie for the opportunity to shoot with you!

July 2008
Football practice has started again and I have booked my first wedding for September! I took this picture of a youngster at one of our first football practices for this year. I cloned out his hand so that it appears under the cap he was holding and converted to Black and White. The photo turned out pretty well, but would have like to have gotten more pictures of him...
