Emilie is back! After a little break from photography classes, due to being pregnant... I'm so happy to introduce everyone to Miss Emilie's first little bundle of joy, Penelope Rose!
The first new baby for a professional photographer has to be like photography crack...right? lol
Ooo! Look at that sweet babe. Congratulations Emilie!

Well, a few weeks before Emilie delivered she took some pictures of OUR little babies too!
Okay, they aren't babies anymore, but I still like to THINK they are.
:)
Check out how AMAZING they turned out!

Emilie's all sorts of fabulous, at capturing those whimsical romantic looking photos that I was going for and she even let me tag along with my camera, so that I could learn a few tips and tricks. I felt like a total pro shadowing her, and watching her change her settings and use lighting in ways that I had never thought of.
Here are a few photos that I snapped with my camera.
Not too shabby eh? ha!
If you were wondering... yes, I was obsessed with that cute yellow chair and suitcase. I had never really used "props" before, and it was really fun to see how Emilie positioned each of my little chicks to get the best shots possible! Now I'm ready for balloons, vintage chairs, and whatever else I can find for photo shoots! It's all so addicting!
So, one of my #1 questions asked on the blog is...
"How did you learn to use your DSLR camera better?"
Well, the simple answer... Emilie taught me! You can read more about that post here.
If you want to learn how to use your manual camera settings better, or just hone in on your positioning, lighting, or editing skills... Emilie's got a class for ALL of that! :)
Emilie is offering a Salt Lake City photography workshop on
Saturday, September 24th from 9am - 1pm.
If you don't live in the area, she also offers 1 on 1 classes online!

The girls are absolutely stunning!
ReplyDeleteYour girls are so gorgeous, they must be a joy to take photos of. Thanks for the tutorial. I think I'm nearly ready to take my camera off auto...not quite yet :-)
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful little girls. Love their hair.
ReplyDeleteI took one of Emilie's classes right before she had her baby. She was so sweet and wonderful. I learned a lot.
ReplyDeleteAfter my baby comes (literally any day now) I want to take one of her portrait photography classes. She's awesome.

I am soooooo trying to get my husband to get me a DSLR for Christmas :) So far he's not going with it (and I'm kinda scared how hard it'll be to learn - I am far away from SLC!) but I still have 4 months, right? :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and beautiful colours.
