Photo Shoot: Sam and Family
Photographer in your own land
There is a saying that ‘a prophet is not recognized in his own land’. I think that the same applies to photographers, that they are not recognized in their own land, or family homes. Perhaps it is just me though.
Yesterday saw me at my folks as my brother opened up (among family and friends) his call to serve a 2 year volunteer mission for the church.
I took the opportunity to take some reflectors, light stand, shoot through umbrella and an extra Sony flash to do some family portraits… while some of the results are great, it was in all honesty like pulling teeth.
Here are my favourite pictures. Shot using a Sony Alpha A850, old Minolta 35-105mm with a HVL-F58AM on camera and a HVL-F42am shooting through the umbrella to the left. A reflector was use on the right to fill in.

'Extended' Family
Boy, its been a while since I blogged, almost an entire month. Life seems to get really busy from time to time and particularly when working for yourself, if there are more important things to do then that is just the way it is.
Well, I am lying down following a Sunday nap and wondering to myself ‘why are there some family members or better RELATives that you just struggle to RELATE too?’
It is not that these people are not important in your life, it is just that you don’t quite feel comfortable around them when they visit.
Well I need to go face this challenge. This week is also going to be a busy one so wish me well. Much travel. I will try blog in between flights etc.
