Jessica Feely Photography

I wasnt in the bride group- but I did get to snap these two pics of her while I was heading to lunch with some fellow photographers. The second model is Alicia- a Senior Model

 

I had the opportunity to attend this conference this past weekend. It was amazing to say the least. We had many speakers who were phenomenal. Some of them were some of the top 10 photographers in the world.  The speakers were- Gene Higa, Mike Larson, Jim Garner, Kevin Swan, and Mike Sklute (Canon explorer of light). These guys were fabulous and definitely brought a great perspective and helped me understand a lot! I took lots of notesWe also had the chance to photograph models both days of the conference. Some of them were at Pike Place and people kept coming up to ask and asking ‘whats going on??’ ‘Is he/she a celebrity??’ Haha…it was awesome. The people who put this together are awesome as well. I need to give them credit for doing it, because it was truly a great experience.

So on to the pictures! This model that I am posting today is Nyema. She has been modeling for several years and pretty much worked it the whole time. She new exactly how to move her body and where to look. It can be really tough when you have between 10-20 photographers (depending on the day or model) all taking your picture at once. It can be really confusing and overwhelming with everyone yelling out diretions and ‘Look at me’, or ‘turn your head, tilt your chin’.  I loved how her pictures turned out. The lighting was gorgeous and thank goodness it didn’t rain. I will post more pictures throughout the week of my other models. Oh and by the way- the models I shot are all ‘Senior’ Models!Enjoy!

 

 

 

I know this seems to be the topics of many blogs lately. With living here in Seattle, it seems like it is something that photographers constantly battle- the weather. Today is one of those stay inside, curl up on the coach, drink hot chocolate kind of days. I am not really fond of taking pictures in the wet rain, so I am leaving you with an inside picture of CJ. She is wearing a new hat that her Grandma crocheted for her.  My new favorite thing are baby hats and accessories. I love to decorate those little round faces and bald heads with something cute.  So just a question to see who is paying attention out there:  If I had a cute hat giveaway for one of these hats (in a color of your choice)would you want one? I would open it up to anyone in any state. I will probably put the contest up at the end of this week or the beginning of next!
