My model is so moody.

I had to go out today and do some test shots for an industrial and patterned backdrop request and had to drag along my 10 year old to be the "model". It's like pulling teeth and he is not very happy about it! Here are just a couple:

One more time with Photoshop

My oldest earned his green belt in Taekwon Do this week and wanted to do one more "scene" (like the ones in my post below) with all of his belts together. White vs. Grey, Yellow vs. Green. Here it is:

Fun with photoshop

I just learned this fun new technique in photoshop and I've been having a little fun with it this weekend. Check it out!

This was the first scene I did with my 10 year old. The first method I used didn't work so well but after I learned the new method, it looked much better.


This is our cat Frankie. I had to throw treats all around the room to get her to go where I wanted. Then the dog came barging in the room and she ran away.


This is my 5 year old sitting around the table playing cards, having an argument and just being cute.


After we saw how cool the first rock band came out, we decided to take it up a level to include another guitarist and a wardrobe change for each member of the band:


The little one is really into army men and he wanted to reenact a battle scene. Is this is his way of honouring our fallen soldiers this Remembrance Day? He's such a nut. Anyway, I reduced the color saturation in all but the green channel. Gives it more of an old time feel while enhancing the green of the army guy.


It was a fun little project, hope you enjoy!
