The M-Family: Toronto Family Photography

Filed under: Family Photography — Tags: , , , , — Holly @ 11:12 am

I recently had the pleasure of photographing this wonderful fun family, on the first really cold weekend of the fall season. We started outside, where we found a wonderful backdrop of still blooming flowers:

Then we moved back to the house, where it was much warmer! Isn’t Clara a cutie? Love this shot!

Mom and dad cuddle with the youngest, Natalie. Felt very much like a ‘day-in-the-life’ shoot, which was really fun!

Thank you to the M-Family for spending a wonderful few hours with me. 🙂

Alice & iPhone Photography

Pulled out the Lensbaby for a few shots of Alice, she loves sleeping on the Apple Airport because it’s warm and toasty (shot with the Canon 1D MkIV and the Lensbaby Composer, see “My Camera Equipment” in footer section for links/more information on camera equipment used):

Some window lens flare and a heart that I photographed on the sidewalk, shot and processed on the iPhone 4:

The following are all reworked shots that I’ve previously posted, decided to see what I could do with them using a new app on my iPhone 4. All were taken with my old iPhone 3G and processed on the iPhone:

Catching Up

A big catch-up post today! Didn’t have a chance to post anything last week, busy fitting in work for the short week with the holiday this past Monday.

All of the following were taken with the iPhone 4, except where noted (all iphoto photography is processed with apps on the iPhone 4).

Rebecca with her outfit she created at The Sewing Studio camp she attended in August, and trying out makeup for a trip to FanExpo (she ended up going much lighter on the makeup, but we sure attracted stares from drivers on Avenue Road!). Left hand column images were taken with the iPhone 4, the rest were taken with the Canon 1DMkIV and the Canon 85mm f/1.2L lens. (See “My Camera Equipment” in footer section for links/more information on camera equipment used.)

Out and about with the kids, at a restaurant, downtown, local ice cream shop, at my mother’s for dinner (where Rebecca brought a friend, Noah is enjoying playing with his iPod Touch):

Have to include some shots of Alice! All but two were taken with the iPhone 4, otherwise the Canon 1DMkIV and the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L lens:

Last batch is just a bunch of random shots from the iPhone 4:

More iPhone 4 Photography!

Filed under: Alice the Cat,iPhone,Life,Out & About — Tags: , , — Holly @ 10:34 am

This is fast beginning the summer of the iPhone 4 as I continue to enjoy using it as my simple ‘pocket camera’. With the apps available you can have some fun with the image you’ve shot and create a more artistic version of the shot.

(All of the following images were shot and processed on the iPhone 4.)

A shot of Old City Hall in downtown Toronto, taken at the same time as the images in the last blog posting, but developed with a different app:

Toronto Old City Hall

I went back to visit the clock tower this weekend, this is a fave:

Summerhill Clock Tower

These shots were all taken the same evening (same as the one above), interesting to me all the different looks I can achieve from the same scene depending on how I processed the image:

While I was standing there, photographing the clock tower, my first photography client came by. We already have a shoot booked for later this month, but it was my first time meeting the newest member of the family, Laszlo. He was difficult to photograph with the iPhone as he moves so fast! I am looking forward to photographing him and his family later this month. Along side Lazlo I have posted some shots of Alice snoozing on my Apple Air Port/Time Capsule. She loves the heat it gives off, crazy kitty! lol

Speaking of animals, Rebecca came downstairs the other day to usher me upstairs to see these visitors right outside her bedroom window. So glad I had my iPhone to grab a few quick shots, as they didn’t hang around for long before departing to the roof:

And last, but not least, a few more random shots from the week:Ramdon-iphone4-college.jpg
