One (ok, maybe two) shot(s) every day. My first year of dailies has been amazing, albeit with some twists and turns. I started on a random day in March. I finished off at Dec. 31 just to make life easier. In this year shot my first wedding, my first set of senior portaits, dozens of bike races, several new buildings. I upgraded to full-frame with the D700, got laid off only to find another job within a week. And last but not least, baby Ashley came along in late november. The majority of the shots from November therefore are daily baby photos.
I did my best to shoot something interesting, and to share the how’s and why’s. Photoshop and Lightroom are awesome and my main tools for post processing.
Thanks for looking; thanks for all the comments.
2009 12-17 Day 2 of unemployment. Ashley's 1 month birthday. I had another meeting today, but with a headhunter rather than an actual company. The job she had was only moderately related to things I've done in the past, so I put it off until I researched some of the things that are more in my wheelhouse.
Ashley did a good long session for me when I took this. Lots of hats & poses before she got mad at me and started screaming. Only a bit of additional black in post here. By doing so, I needed to drop saturation a bit.
