Fort Morgan & Okefenokee Swamp !



This is a video of two places Pete and I visited on our trip to Florida, a couple of months ago. We visited several old spanish type forts along the gulf coast and this was one of our favorites. The swamp pics are the Okefenokee Swamp and wildlife refuge in South Georgia. Check the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3V_svSCOJs As always, comments are welcome.




Happy Shooting !

Tips for great Easter photos !

Here are some simple tips for taking Easter pictures this year...

Take Pictures Before & After... Be sure to start photographing Easter a few days before Easter and at least one day after Easter.
This is because Easter is a holiday, and holidays last more than one day. Don't overlook all that takes place in preparation for the Easter holiday. Think of it as the story-behind-the-story. You'll thank yourself later.

Some things to photograph:

•Family members coming home from the store with new outfits
•The process of coloring Easter eggs
•Cooking & baking in preparation for Easter dinner
•Family members putting on their Sunday Best
•Your pet's involvement in Easter
•Family members interacting (talking, playing games, watching TV)
•Lots of candid photos of family members just being themselves
Don't forget the candids of the big "Easter Egg Hunt". This is my favorite. A great time to catch kids and adults being themselves.

Happy Easter to everyone and Happy Shooting !
