So far I’ve been shooting (=taking pictures) in natural light. I really like it, I like shadows, shades and different color of the light during day. I like the flexibility of putting my subject \ model in front or on the side of the light source (=sun). I like the natural looking surroundings, backgrounds – whether it’s a backyard in San-Francisco East Bay, or Tilden Park in Berkeley hills, or Emeryville downtown (or IKEA :)).
But I also don’t want to stand still and do all the same settings over and over again.
So when my friend Lana asked, if I want to accompany her for her Studio Photography Shoot, I couldn’t pass up that opportunity :) I wanted to go and see how other photographer work in the studio settings and lighting. I was also hoping to get a chance to take pictures there myself :)
And I did! :) Here are the results:

Shannon, you have some Rocking pictures here. And there are more to come! :) Merry Christmas!
Family members of Photographer (any photographer) have to suffer. They never get pictures on time :(( They have to wait till the photographer is done with editing client’s pictures. Sometimes they have to wait for months…. Well, Shannon, you are lucky! You just had to wait ONE month. I mean for this. But the rest… well… I promise, I’ll be done with editing the rest of the photos before the middle of January (when my school starts :))

I know Ewa for a long time. From day 2, since I got to United States. So we have a long history there :))
She now live in Connecticut and came to visit me and my family last month. We had a lot of fun ;) we went to different places together and of course I took pictures of her!
This next one set of pictures I call a-la “Sex and the City” style :)) I don’t know, I have associations with the series :)
We went to Treasure Island to see San-Francisco from there:
And here she was taking pictures of me… and having a picture-taking-training (almost), so we can work together in a team someday:
Do you want to be my friend?! Are you ready to jump for me? :)) not once, not twice… but many-many-many times, till I get enough shots, so I can make a small animation to put on my blog?! or maybe more than one :))
Ewa did it for me :) and she was wearing dress at the time! :))
She probably will want to kill me, that i put this animation on my blog (and post it on my Facebook page) but she is just such a talented jumper, that I can’t resist! :)))
so do you still want to be my friend? :)) you can add me as one on the Facebook or Twitter :)
