August 14, 2009I’ve been spending some time learning to do other things in the post processing of my images. One thing is learning to use textures to give a different feeling to an image. Many photographers are using textures for senior photos and the grads love the feel textures give to their images. Textures fit well with today’s teen lifestyle. Do you like the newer version of the pensive mood with textures added? Does it add to the mood of the image? Compared to the black and white version posted in June, which one do you like best? Dark and moody or light and airy?
Here’s another one. The original is the 2nd image in the profile collage above:
I have a question for you: Do you have any formal portraits of you with your mom?
While reading a thread recently, I found that the answer was usually “No.” Here’s another question: Wouldn’t you like to have at least one formal portrait with your mother now?
One poster tells the story of how she does not have a single professional portrait of her family that includes her mother, who passed away some time ago. I don’t have any formal portraits of my mom and me before she passed away. The most recent would be about 5+ years before she passed (at my wedding), and that’s 30+ years ago.
As technology changes, things change easily, i.e., tvs, cellphones, computers, etc. A family portrait only increases in value. It does not get replaced or thrown away. Some day, your children will need a portrait of you, and unless you make it a priority to be in the portrait, there will be no photos for them to find. I have been practicing for our family portrait by making it a priority to be in front of the camera (not just behind it), because I’ve faced the fact that the portrait is not about me—this is for future generations.

- You, too, need to be remembered by your future generations—a family portrait only increases in value, is never replaced or thrown away.
Thank you and have a wonder filled week with your family. Practice makes perfect—am I there yet?
