My good friend Kelly came into town on Saturday to meet with some clients, so naturally we had to get together. Kelly is a photographer from the west side of the state and while we talk almost everyday, we don’t get to see one another much. Kelly needed to get a few head shots as well, as us photographers always need fabulous pictures of ourselves. I mean our clients can’t be the only ones getting all these great images
Needless to say, mother nature was mad at us and gave us nice light, but a very windy day. Now if we were doing shots of me, it would be fine, as my hair can’t really blow in the wind, but Kelly’s most definitely could AND did. We did manage to get a couple great pics and the all important headshot, so at least it wasn’t a total failure.
Kelly and I went to the Grizzly Peak for some yummy food and beverages as well as Sweetwaters later on for some much needed coffee yumminess. Thanks for coming out this way Kelly and trusting me with taking your pics…I’ll see you in a couple weeks!
Here’s a few of the images…
Gotta love some train track action!
And here’s the shot we ended up with for her headshot…
For you photographers out there, I shot all of the images of Kelly with the Nikon 85 f/1.8. I shot in Kelvin WB like I always do now and at 200 ISO. I used to own the Nikon 85 f/1.4 (actually a couple times) and I have to say, the performance of the 85 f/1.8 shot wide open (pretty much the whole reason for the lens) is WAY better! Pretty cool considereing the f/1.4 is $1200 and the f/1.8 is $450…yay for saving money and getting better quality!
