played around with my tilt-shift lens the morning i had to return it. i still have a lot to learn with this lens, but it sure is fun….

(this first shot is actually with the 35L, not the tilt-shift…)

so this is an experiment in 1) watermarking my images and 2) the simpleviewer flash gallery wordpress plugin, because there are a zillion pictures i wanted to upload for this post. i’m going to try this, see how it works, and if it works nicely i’ll edit this post and write a whole bunch more about the bridal walk…

bridal walk teaser

i hate the term “teaser” because it sounds like i’m telling you the whole shabang is SO GOOD that this glimpse of it will “tease” you into wanting to see the rest of it. but. it’s the only term that works.

so i’m giving a “teaser” because i still have a LOT of blog-catching-up to do before i’m posting regularly and up-to-date! three more weddings to post, before i post all my favorites from today – which was an AMAZING day! meeting with a group of other photographers to photograph three models in bridal gowns in various gorgeous locations in frederick, md., on a bright, crisp autumn day… but i really, really do want to get my site up and running before i settle into a blogging rhythm.

so, for now, here’s one of my favorite shots from early on in the day – model ashley, and this is at the frederick MARC station!
