Still here

Hello dear readers!

This is a little update to let you know I have not abandoned this blog. Life has just necessetated a break from the online world.

In the last weeks, I have bid adieu to life as I knew it and moved to a new state to start a new job. I plan to resume blogging soon, chronicling my new adventures. However, it will have to wait until my camera is unpacked and I have internet installed in my new digs.

Stay tuned!

Essay #54: Snowy portraits

Winter's dreary and often inclement weather can be far from ideal for outdoor portraits. However, fresh snow and a cute couple can make for a fun session.

Exposure is the key to snowy portraits. The white of the snow can cause the camera to overcompensate and capture everything as gray, so to make sure the subjects were properly lit, I had to overexpose two stops.
