Just As i Am...

tatatataDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

whoa picture loaded post!

ok. so i saved most of the wedding photos that i took in july and am just now finishing editing. this was a tough cookie. the lighting is horrible. and i almost don't want to put them on the web. i took over 200 shots. (easy) and i guess i lost alot of them before the "crash" of the computer. these are the ones i've managed to save and edit. but... i'm still not happy with them. maybe next time!
i'll preface this by saying i'm not a professional. this is a friend of mine that i work with. she let me sneak in just for practice's sake and get a few shots in. She had a paid, professional photographer so i sat at the back of the church and whatnot. there were a few good ones that i got. but after about 200 photos hit the drawing room floor due to bad lighting... i decided i had to use SOME of them. i even sent them to sassy miss Amby and we were both like, "arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!" (and that's the nice version!)

so - i sat down tonight while on the phone with brandy. and let 'er rip.

























































you can see the rest of these here. The pword is "forever." i put it on there for the photosite community. but i trust you peeps! even though i think they're crap shots - i'm sharing. see, kindergarten morals rear their ugly heads again...

and here is the photo session of miss jessica. such a good sport. not really comfortable in front of the camera. but then again, not many people are. loved working with her THIS much! you can see the rest of these HERE


jessica has to have the best eyes ever.
so i played around a bit with contrasts.
and voila!
i feel like the rest of her is in a nightie and high heels on a big poster for the war or something...

holy cow your eyes are GAWGEOUS!











my third roommate, Jamie (i've had seven!) got married last week in Lake Tahoe. her reception was tonight. we got there fashionably late and didn't really get much time with her. but i snapped these few shots. she's such a sweetheart. probably the most genuinely nice person i know, i wish you all the best honey! MUAH!


























ok. i'm done. it's 530 am. my carpals hurt from holding a mouse all night. hope you enjoyed the photos! i have church and lunch with my Maternal Unit tomorrow. wooot!

I can get into photos, and I especially like the one with the roses and the girl with the apple.

Nice work.
