Mardi Gras Portraits in Pine Lake

So here's yet another blogpost about how much I love Pine Lake.

This morning, instead of the usual first Saturday pancake breakfast, Pine Lakers celebrated Mardi Gras with a brunch, complete with beignets, red beans and rice, and bread pudding with wine sauce.

Following the brunch, one adorable dog, children on bikes and children walking, dressed-up adults and a rainbow paraded around our lake. 

Before and after the parade, I took portraits of anyone willing to stand on a specific crack in the sidewalk. 

Here are a few of my favorites:

Taking my head shot photography to another level

Lately, I have more and more people asking me take head shots for their website, social media, or sometimes even printed marketing materials.

So I decided to do a little research and educate myself on various headshot styles. This is one of my favorites. It uses something called clamshell lighting.

Here's a photo I took of Sharon and one she took of me, while we were practicing.

And this is one of my good friend the Rev. Kim Jackson that I took the next day.

I have a couple more head shot sessions scheduled over the next couple of weeks. If you'd like to schedule a session for you and maybe even your coworkers, give us a call 404 298 6263 or shoot us an email at cindy@cbrownphoto.com.

Photographing James Brown

Sometimes a portrait session is fun, not just because the person you're photographing is delightful to be around, but because they've had to develop a sense of humor. James Brown was just such a person. 

He was born with a name that would soon become famous, and he didn't even have to work for the fame. It just came with the name.

Here's my photo of James Brown, a favorite portrait, as of late. I'm thinking the photograph works because James' sense of humor and calm spirit shines through in the image.
