Alice’s wedding II

Black And White Photography, David, Photography

I thought before moving on from my stint as wedding photographer I’d share this shot. Alice is just adjusting her gown. This shot just worked for me, and originally this was a much larger 28mm shot which I cropped heavily. The huge sensor on the Q2 gives you room for this. I’ve never been a student of the “Never crop a photo.” school It’s my photo, my story. I’ll crop the shot to fit my vision.

Camp North End is a massive adaptive reuse project on a 76-acre industrial site north of Uptown Charlotte, North Carolina. There were numerous old warehouse structures offering photographers a rich array of compositional opportunities.

This dying tree caught my eye while walking through a local greenway. Whether its old barns, houses, antiques or dying trees, there is always transience of life and beauty to be appreciated in decay.

Brick Wall

I cleaned up and swept my barn, installed new lamps and renewed all the electrical cables. I think the barn has never been so clean !!! Looks like a modern and fashionable living room. But wait until the planer and circular saw are back in place …
