Wednesday Photoshop Experiment – Photo to CG.

Ever wonder what you would look like as an anime or game character? I can help you with that. I created this while playing around with an old image in Photoshop. Move your mouse over the image to see the before:

I have found there is a very fine line when trying to change the shape or size of someone’s eyes. While a less realistic,”big eyed” look is possible, experiments have proven that making the eyes significantly larger only works well on images that have been shot with this effect in mind. With this image, I made changes to the shape of the mouth and nose to give the effect rather than mess with the integrity of the eyes, and I definitely prefer the result.

Of course the work done to this image was not just on the overall face shape. I put a lot of work into producing a more “CG” feel to the image. I call it the “Final Fantasy” effect as the idea was to create something that felt more like anime or video game art.

Karen & John’s 1920’s Museum Wedding

[dcs_img_ngg width=”600″ height=”367″ thumb=”true” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” pos=”left” mright=”15″ pid=”377″]

I was so excited to be the photographer for this wedding. I adore museum weddings, and this couple was just so original in all their choices, from the vintage toys at the reception to the bride’s white beaded dress. My favourite moment was when the groom pulled out two toy tommy guns right after the ceremony and immediately presented one to his new bride. Priceless! More images to come.

Here’s a quick sneak peek at two of the photos from my recent coverage of Free Comic Book Day with the girls from the SLLAG, who were out in costume selling tickets for the Saskatoon Comicon at all comic shops in Saskatoon. I’d like to thank the staff and owners of 8th Street Comics, Amazing Stories, Unreal City, to all the members of the Love Love Anime Group, and to all the heroes and citizens of Saskatoon who showed up to make the event such a huge success. Stay tuned as there are many more images to come!

[dcs_img_ngg width=”600″ height=”367″ thumb=”true” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” pid=”274″]

Recently I had the opportunity to do a shoot in the Western Development Museum in Moose Jaw. I have to say a huge thank you to all the museum staff for helping to make this shoot happen. We had four costume changes, and both the couple and their children involved in this shoot and it was just a fantastic time. More images will be following in the weeks to come, so stay tuned!

Vintage Themed Engagement – Saskatoon

[dcs_img_ngg width=”367″ height=”600″ thumb=”true” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” pos=”left” mright=”15″ pid=”259″]

Costumes, antique stores, engagements oh my! I have been very busy the past few weeks, and I am looking forward to being able to post images from my latest shoots

I love shooting engagements. You can really present a couple in a way that’s just so much more relaxed.

I feel many people are so caught up in planning the wedding, they forget to celebrate their engagement.

I find it a bit sad because it’s such a beautiful time in the relationship, it deserves to be remembered, too.

Again, big thank you again to the owner of Off Broadway Antiques. Such a lovely shop!

Whimsical Snowy Portraits – Artistic Photography Post Part II

[dcs_img_center_ngg framed=”black” w=”600″ h=”600″ pid=”225″]

Alright folks, I promised to post the rest of these images without further delay, and here they are.

These were the more whimsical shots of the day, when we decided to have a little fun out in the snow. I love the seemingly magical ability that a camera gives me to capture people frozen in motion.

I must say that while the cold is not fun for the photographer or the model, snow remains one of my favourite props.

Vintage Engagement Shoot – Saskatoon Photography

[dcs_img_ngg width=”367″ height=”600″ thumb=”true” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” pos=”left” mright=”15″ pid=”215″]

I have a confession to make:

I am addicted to historic clothing.

I know I’ve promised a post on Part II of my previous shoot (It’s still coming!) but I had to share this.

These two are just so gorgeous together. Her face is so lovely, very much a timeless beauty.

We walked all over Broadway today, and the owner of Off Broadway Antiques was very welcoming when we asked to do a few shots in the store.

Artistic Portrait Session Part One

[dcs_img_ngg width=”267″ height=”300″ thumb=”true” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” pos=”left” mright=”15″ pid=”204″]

It was so very hard to choose favourites from this shoot, so I’m going to be posting the second installment next week.

I knew when I met this girl that her gorgeous complexion was the perfect complement for a few items from my personal costume collection, and she was truly up for anything that day.

The image of her spinning is my favourite from the entire shoot. It keeps all the dark elegance of the earlier images, but has this wonderfully joyous feeling to it. I must say, having wanted to add more vintage and burlesque style images to my portfolio for quite awhile, this shoot was a real treat for me to photograph.

Sneak Preview – Saskatoon Artistic Portrait Photography

I’m really amazed at the locations available to photographers working without a studio in Saskatoon, even in the winter. The weather was not as cold as I had expected this Sunday, so I got many more outdoor shots than I had been expecting. This shot is just a quick preview of things to come!
