Double Banger Birthday Party

21st March is both Doug and Jeremy's birthday in our household and last Saturday was a biggie. Doug Turned 50 and Jeremy turned 18.

Being the host made it a bit difficult to take photos so I gave my camera to a couple of Terabyters - thanks Steve and Rach.

Here's a slideshow:


And here is a link to the album

Family members are welcome to download and print these. They should print fine at 6" x 4" but if you want high resolution images just email me - doug {at} hanna.net.nz

So, I took along my softbox and attempted to get a good shot of each couple. It was pretty dark which made shooting hard and I learned not to shoot too much in parallel with the softbox as we got too much light reflection on faces. Here they are...

Some casual portraits

I dropped in on the Taekwon-do Star Series Tournament today for a couple of hours and made a nuisance of myself taking some photos of the action and the people. Tired of my usual myriad of lenses I just took my 85mm prime lens which I've found great for portraiture. Here are a few of the images I captured...



Cheers
