Those of you who follow my blog know that I love to teach other photographers, and regularly schedule time to offer workshops to help out the profession! In addition to it being possibly the best weather I have experienced in San Francisco since I moved here 15 years ago… Sunday was the perfect day to teach a kid’s portraiture workshop with my friends from the Renegades. Special thanks to Martha Blanchfield, freelance PR person, and regular contributor to Rangefinder Magazine for professional photographers, who organized a gorgeous bunch of kids to come and model for us on a bright sunny day in the Tulip Gardens! The highlight of the day (probably for both the photographers AND the kids) was a pie fight between a group of best friends who will love these images as they grow up together! It was Memorial Day weekend, so some of our small patriots also paid tribute to the gool ol’ USA with their fun outfits! We hosed down the kids, wiped down the cameras and headed into the Beach Chalet for a nice snack and some Photoshop and Lightroom lessons, and before you know it, it was time to go! here’s some of my favorites from the day!
Thanks so much for a great day of shooting and learning. I hope you’re up for doing another kids workshop…maybe before the end of summer?
Now that I’ve had a few days to review my photos I’d like another stab at making them better.
The shots you posted are fantastic. I would love to know what your post processing entailed with these. LR using your presets perhaps?
Looking forward to the next workshop. Thanks again!
OK, that pie fight picture may be the cutest picture I have ever seen. What mommy wouldn’t hold onto that forever? It is an insight to her spunk and whit. This is a picture her husband will keep on his desk of her as a reminder of why she is the mother of his children. Seriously!
