Back in the Saddle

So, it's no secret that I've been semi-retired from photoing for several months. Since photography for me is an elaborate hobby rather than a profession, I've had to focus on other things.

I still get the occasional request to make some photos for friends and family, but I've had to be selective about which of those I do in order to guard my time. However, my bother-in-law is getting married, so he asked me to do some engagements and bridals.

In the spirit of posting anything on this blog just to get some content out there, here are a few from the last couple sessions with Chase and Taylor.

These are Lightroom previews, not final edits, so please judge kindly!

Kiyosaki

I've been trying to find some opportunities to practice some product photos, so this last week gave me a couple opportunities.

We spent last week at a seminar with Robert Kiyosaki on how to raise capital. The seminar was incredible, and I'd recommend any of Robert's materials to anyone looking to increase the education about money.

In addition to the always enlighten education, Robert unveiled two new things. His new book "The Real Book of Real Estate" was one. Congratulations are in order for my dad who wrote three of the chapters.

The second was a new Rich Dad branded silver coin produced by the Old Glory Mint, which we own. It was a great week! I found some black acrylic for the coin shot at a place called Delvie's Plastics in Salt Lake. They were GREAT people, and I'd also recommend them to any photogs looking for something similar. Affordable, fast, and friendly, unlike GE Polymershapes. (Don't go there.)
