As a photographer, I can affirm that one of the happiest events to photograph is a baby shower. Baby shower photography captures a celebration of new life. There is a solidarity among women. A shared experience- for some, yet to be, for others in days long past, but the experience of birth and new life is shared by all. Baby shower photography is an informal and fast paced work. Capturing emotions and expressions usually are in an instant and you have one chance. This is no venue for amateur photographers, your mastery of the camera must be complete and confident because speed is of the essence to capture what really matters at the baby shower from start to finish.

Lights • Camera • Perspective

Chandeliers and lights often make a good point of reference adding a sense of depth in a room. A sense of the real with a little flair. You want your clients to be able to connect with the photo of your listing. The point of reference so close to the camera makes them feel close to the scene- not distant.

Great photography is about a feeling. This technically very imperfect photograph was “rescued” in Lightroom because of its emotional appeal. The flawed exposure and focus only add to the emotion of seeing the face of a little angel in ethereal light.

Great photography is about a story. You can meet every technical requirement of a perfect photograph but if it fails to touch an emotion and tell a story about what resonates with the viewer it isn’t that great.

Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a very pleasant staff of a local escrow office as well as their owned office in a hundred year old rehabbed house. Processing of real estate deals has been their business for 25 years. The market has had ups and downs several times since this business started. This market has the worst signs of long standing issues. From delinquent condo association funding dues to completely foreclosure mortgage payment profiles, the market is like a bull attacked by lions. He’s still standing but you know that if something doesn’t change, those lions are going to win and the bull is going down.

Still pretty new to the world. Ethan likes sleeping, eating and keeping his parents on their toes.

This was one of those Photoshop things but it was kinda fun.

A once a year volunteer opportunity for my wife’s 4th grade class.

The instructor kept these kids’ minds busy almost all day. The perk for her? She had only 18 kids. Just half of my wife’s regular class. That’s right. 36 students every day- in a GATE class. 

Yes, it’s lame. That’s why our cashiers can’t figure out that they can use $5 dollar bills when they run out of tens.

If my PR toolbar is to be believed, Google has once again downgraded itself.

Google has downgraded its Pagerank Again… And Facebook’s!

Google Pagerank PR9

If the Pagerank system is to be trusted then both Google and Facebook have lost traffic. Both have fallen from PR10 to PR9.

Now the only website I know of right now to hold the venerable PR10 rating is the #1 result (for today) for the search, “click here”. That is the Adobeadobe reader PR10 Reader page where you get the software to read those PDF files we all know and love.

 

Facebook is now PR9 pagerank
