What happens when photographers have no one to photograph…

Posted in Photography

Winter is hard on us! We really love taking pictures outside and it is TOO DARN COLD right now! We begin to twitch… the kids certainly won’t let us photograph them anymore… no, they are pretty much done.

I did a little research about macro photography, which is another interest of mine… you know, for wedding rings and small details… PRETTY! Then it started to snow and I had to give it a try.

For you other photographers out there, I used my 5d Mk II with my 28-75mm lens on it and then hand held my 50mm lens REVERSED to the face of the other lens. You have to focus manually and do manual exposure, but it is so fun! Give it a try!!!

Here is my little show of snow!

Enjoy the day! ~A.

Op Love Reunited

Military men and women hold a special place in our hearts. Our grandfathers and fathers proudly served our great nation. When we asked Kellie’s younger brother, who is serving his 4th tour in Iraq, what he needed, he said he didn’t need anything except pictures of his family. We can do that. We can say thank you for serving.

Operation: Love Reunited is a federal non-profit organization of professional photographers that have joined together to offer our military men and women FREE special sessions with their families. These patriotic sessions are designed to boost the
morale of our service men and women in times of deployment. Military families are eligible for two sessions per year per deployment.

If you are a member or family member of the United States Military, and are interested in having touching images with a patriotic edge taken of you and/or your family before or during a deployment, and at your reunion, please contact us. Let us say thank you. We provide a 4x6 album sent to your deployed service member of images taken before or during deployment OR a CD with print release of up to 20 images for images taken during homecoming. You will also receive our Friends and Family Op Love Print Discount of more than 60% for Family Members. Look HERE and HERE and HERE and please say a prayer for our brave men and women in the military.
