Welcome...

Welcome to my project 365.



What is project 365? It is simply where you take a photo a day for 365 days.

Why do project 365? People do it for different reasons but I received a new camera for xmas and in order to get used to using it I decided the best way was to use it often, not just when I schedule a shoot but for everyday things. Project 365 will get me thinking outside the 'box' and make me think more creatively about what I am photographing. If you happen to stop by don't be a blog stalker :) sign up and leave me a message........I hate talking to myself!


Ok well I finished my 365 so now what? For now I'm just going to update a few things that happen so that family members following can still see what we are up to.

BACKLIGHTING


Not one of my 365 photos but had to put it up for those who have inspired me to try backlighting.
I have wanted to try a back/side lit portrait for a while now but haven't had the right opportunity until now.  My niece was the perfect model with her dark hair and the lighting was spot on at the time.  I find with my daughter being blonde her hair just blows out but it was much easier with a darker haired model.  I love the result and will make a point to practise it more!

  1. Wonderful portrait. Here eyes pop with that background. Now I'm inspired to practice more with this technique. Happy Mother's Day!
