p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Family/Engagement Session


This couple is getting married soon and didn't want to do the traditional engagement shoot so we kind of did a day in the life...
Overall I was pretty happy with how they turned out. The bride has extremely low self confidence and was very wary of the camera. Obviously she is gorgeous and has nothing to worry about but I am glad we got a chance to do this shoot because we were able to butter her up with compliments etc. and prepare her for the wedding day.

Film was Neopan 400 and Hp5 both at 1600.
The 4x5 shot is FP4 metered and shot at 250 developed at 500.

Comments are greatly appreciated.

The kids get a bit lost in #1 due to B&W with a busy background, but whatever. These are great, man, and the 4x5 shot is killer. Boom!

Ya the kids to get lost a bit... I guess I paid the price for movement+sharpness when I stopped down to like F8... oh well.

I actually really like #1.

Nice set. Is that a bowling alley in their own house? And more importantly, is that your light stand?

Love it. My favorite is the portrait of them on the tree.

I know technical questions are lame. But what the hell are your sharpness settings?

Ya thats my stand
The alley was in this HUGE bowling alley / arcade in some Denver suburb. We were lucky enough to be able to rent out the party room for a game because it was the middle of a weekday and no one was there. So we had the room all to ourselves which was cool.

Sharpening settings...
For the film shots its basically nothing and with the digital Nikon shots it is like 85, .9, 15, 0 in LR.

Saw a few of these on FB. They were really good then, but they're even better as a set.

I can see where you are really going to struggle to make her look good.....NOT!
