I met so many nice families and we had a great time taking pictures and visiting with my sweet little foster bunny Mopsie (adoption information available at <a href="http://www.toomanybunnies.com/">www.toomanybunnies.com</a>). Here are some photos taken at the event. I love that they don't scream Easter so that they can be used for many purposes and stand the test of time. Thanks to everyone who helped make this event a success!<br />

I'll be growing the business and launching a brand new website and private client proofing gallery. I'll even hopefully be setting up my own home studio for newborn shoots, portraits, and any photos that are better taken where its not 32 degrees or 100 degrees outside. My clients in 2012 were really top quality people. I'm so thankful to have met them all and I look forward to working with them, as well as all the new clients to come, in 2013.<br />
<br />
So even though the holidays are over, I want to sneak in one last holiday family portrait shoot. These are friends of mine and this is the third family portrait session I have done for them. It's a bit of an annual occasion. I don't know if its because we are friends, or just because they are the happiest, friendliest people you'd want to know, but we always have such fun on our shoots. I honestly tried to get them to stop laughing in order to take photos, but for the most part, it didn't work! Aren't they the cutest family? We explored the many great backdrops of Piedmont Park as the sun was beginning to set. As my client told me, December is the perfect time of year to shoot in Piedmont Park. At first, I wondered why he would say that since it was a bit on the cold side, but he elaborated that although there were plenty of people enjoying the park that day, there was still plenty of room for us to shoot without gobs of random people in the background, as there would have been at warmer times of year. Good point!<br />
<br />
And now, on to the photos.<br />

Most clients choose one of the gorgeous outdoor settings scattered around the greater Atlanta area. The client I had on this particular shoot was drawn to the colorful mural backdrop I featured in an earlier blog post (click here to view <a href="http://cindyjackeyphotography.blogspot.com/2012/09/mural-as-background.html">http://cindyjackeyphotography.blogspot.com/2012/09/mural-as-background.html</a> )<br />
<br />
So after viewing the post, the family decided to have their Christmas card shoot in front of this edgy, urban, non-traditional background. I have to say, I love it when that happens! I sent my client a photo of the mural ahead of time so she could view all the colors that could be visible in the photos and plan wardrobe accordingly. I absolutely love how her bright yellow sweater, as well as everybody else's clothing, compliment the colors of the mural. Their Christmas card will no doubt stand out this year. And truth be told, I already received one and it did look great! Here's a tip for you straight from my client - send your holiday cards out online with one of several available services (such as smilebox <a href="http://www.smilebox.com/">www.smilebox.com</a>) and you not only skip the cost and time involved with ordering and mailing paper cards, but you can also send <u>all</u> of the photos from your Cindy Jackey Photography session to your friends and family presented as a beautiful slide show. This client sent out her 16 favorite photos from our shoot in her online holiday card - you can't fit that on a 4X6 card!<br />
<br />
So here are some shots from our non-traditional holiday session. What a fun, playful family. I love my clients!<br />

What a crazy time of year - family to visit, decorations to hang, presents to buy, joy and stress wrapped up in a green and red package. And for many it is also holiday photo time. My super smart clients hire me to do a holiday photo session in October or November (and yes, we can even squeeze them into December for those procrastinators, of which I am one.) They know they will get some lovely family portraits in the beautiful outdoor settings we enjoy through winter in our southern climate (gotta love it!) Then they can purchase prints and enlargements of their beautiful family and/or little ones to proudly frame and hang in their home and give to family and friends. And most folks like to buy digital negatives (i.e. images on CD) to use for holiday cards, gifts, photo books and more. Its like a two-fer, well, more of a five-fer! Very smart, indeed. </div>
<br />
So the family I am featuring in this post was really all about having fun. And why should a photo shoot be drudgery? At my photo shoots, fun is a requirement. As long as we are having fun, we'll get great photos. Don't you think the two are strongly correlated? So we did this shoot at Deepdeene Park in Druid Hills - my clients' choice. Its a hidden little park with a deciduous forest and creek to explore. I love how I get to discover cool new places around my Atlanta/Decatur home that I never even knew existed.<br />
<br />
To start the shoot off, I unloaded my equipment and props from the car after meeting the family at the entrance of the park. By the time I had made it from my car back to the entrance where I was setting up our first shot, the kids were 400 ft. away, down the hill, running across the far edge of the huge grassy field. And they were having a ball! I was so glad to see their joy and I could just tell that we would have a great shoot. Their parents corraled them back up the hill and the fun began. As the shoot progressed, the family got more and more comfortable and by the end they were one big pile of laughing bodies! (You'll see what I mean.)<br />

I have edited the images in this post with a beautiful black and white treatment called Velvet Ash. Actually, its not true black and white as there is some color added. I simply love black and white processing and sometimes an image just begs me to make it b&w, as these did. However, my clients usually prefer color so I always provide them with plenty of those. </div>

This is a term I wasn't previously so familiar with. But now I am and I am so happy to have been introduced to the Intown Atlanta Parents of Multiples group. If you or someone you know has been blessed by multiple little ones, you can learn more about them at <a href="http://www.atlantamultiples.com/">www.atlantamultiples.com</a>.<br />
<br />
I met this lovely family of multiples when we did a recent fall family portrait shoot. We had a lot of fun, as you can see.<br />

For this shoot we used all of our 90-minute session time and then some. This is to be expected with a family (of this size or bigger), or if little kiddos are involved. We need the extra time to allow us to focus in on the inter-relationships between the different family members, as well as each family member individually, and the whole family as a group. And we can get lots of nice candid shots taken during our 'down time.' We can also take our time to allow for breaks for tiring kids. So we end up with a ton of genuine and beautiful photos that tell the story of your family at this singular point in time. <br />

This is not unusual when photographing young kids. But they usually come back around to their normal sweet selves. This little one did with help from mommy and me (I'm so glad to have mommies on my shoots - they are so helpful to the process!) and I'm so happy with the resulting photos. Take a look at a few...<br />

I love how the trees arch over the tracks and the sunshine peeks out in the distance. I only wish they weren't currently in use - That train's horn is LOUD!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">And I knew this sweet child would be the ultimate model the first time I laid eyes on her. She did not disappoint, although she was definitely not as into the shoot as I was! Her momma did a good job of coaxing smiles out of her and, truth be told, I love a photograph of a child who's not smiling. Somehow, to me, the innocence, trust, and wisdom of a child are more beautifully expressed that way.</span><br />

I was so happy their parents allowed me into their home at such a wild, wondrous time to photograph the new babies. They were so gorgeous! I could have sat and watched them for hours. And I of course had to hold one (every chance I got) to help momma out, since there were two of them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So the story goes that you should photograph newborns in the first ten days of life, to maximize their sleepiness and ability to be manipulated into adorable poses. But these little ones were three weeks old and very cooperative, once both finally fell asleep at the same time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">First we did some shots that were perfect for b&w...</span><br />

This little girl was the impeccable model. So poised. So delightful. Striking a pose at every turn.....</span><br />

I like for the subject to stand out and be the main focus. But recently, some very cool murals have been popping up around my city and I thought it would be fun to shoot a children's photo session in front of one. I think the colorful, urban feel of the mural enhances the photograph. And bringing a few props from home helps to keep things playful (chair, jewelry, flower).</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">One thing to remember about using your background as a feature in your photograph is that you really have to pay attention to it - the colors, patterns, lines, etc. - in relation to your subject. Otherwise, its easy to end up with odd shapes/lines/trees/poles/etc. growing out of people's heads (and yes, this did happen to me during this shoot!) See...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Prominently featuring your background in your photo can be fun but it does add another layer of considerations to challenge your brain while shooting. And I don't recommend bringing a four-year-old along as your "assistant", although I have to admit mine was very good at making faces at and extracting smiles from my model.</span><br />

away in a residential neighborhood in the NW corner of Decatur.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With grassy fields and long sight lines, it’s
to die for in the early evening.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> The sun had set below the trees. Still pretty, but not the same! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">S</span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">o, how is it done?</span></div>
<span style="color: #0066cc; font-family: Times New Roman;"><u></u></span> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Technical Info (How-To).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Let me begin by saying, you cannot get this look with your
camera on auto.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Or with a pre-set such as 'landscape' or 'portrait'.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is a manual shot.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So use this chance to take your camera off
auto and play with it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The secret to
success is: spot meter your subject and shoot directly towards the sun with your
subject standing between you and the sun.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Play around with positioning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Take some shots with the sun in the photo blaring right at you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Look at the lovely flare it produces. That’s
the fun of digital photography – instant feedback and a delete button. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Traditionally, the golden hour, which produces the wonderful
light we are trying to capture, occurs one hour before sunset.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> For your shoot,</span> you'll want a clear day with
the sun very low in the sky but still visible.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Here in the Atlanta area, we have all of these gorgeous old-growth trees
to consider.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That means back your
session time up to two and a half hours before the expected sunset, as the sun will set below the trees long before it sets below the horizon. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I took the first two shots above at about 5:45 PM, then the sun set below the trees.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The actual sunset time was more like 8:00 PM. Here are links to two cool sunset calculators that will help you plan your shoot.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.weather.com/outlook/events/weddings/planning/sunset">http://www.weather.com/outlook/events/weddings/planning/sunset</a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.sunrisesunset.com/USA/">http://www.sunrisesunset.com/USA/</a></span><a href="http://www.sunrisesunset.com/USA/"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Notice that this golden hour light does tend to read rather flat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The sunlight acts like a mist filling the air and
knocking the colors and definition down a few notches.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> So, b</span>athed in sun = low contrast and you may need
to bump up the contrast and saturation in post-processing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> I also found that the focus becomes softer in this type of light.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Well my dearies, you now know the basics of sun drenched photography,
so get out there and try it (and don’t wait as long as I did!)</span></div>
