Today my lovely fellow photographer friend Clarissa and I, after getting coffee, ventured to Rotary Park here in Menomonee Falls to "shoot" eachother so we have photos available of ourselves to use for our portfolios and they could perhaps serve as a photograph next to an about me section in a website or something. Needless to say we had a pretty successful day. To see more of these photographs, visit my flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/emilybartos).
My brother also had his professional senior portrait session today at Portraits on Pilgrim so I accompanyed him to watch the owner/photographer Nancy in action. Learned alot, especially with tech. She uses manual flashes from the 80's with her Nikon D2X which is very cool and she has abilities to take the simplest scenery and create a beautiful photograph--some studios I find overcomplicate their backdrops and settings and it takes away from the image. She gave me tips with shooting--it was a great day for an amateur photographer.
Also, I started my day with an iced chai charger. It had to have been a good day.
