January, 2010 Archives
Amber is a former student of mine, and I’ve known Michael’s family since forever, so I was happy for the both of them when I heard they were dating and had gotten engaged. One of the benefits of living in a small town. What’s more, Mark Douglass and I will be shooting their wedding, which will happen in March. We were able to take advantage of a nice Sunday afternoon today and get a few engagement photos done.
If this shot looks familiar, it’s because it’s the winter version of my White River Falls series. When all is said and done, I’ll have four shots here taken in each of the four seasons. I had hoped for a little more snow when I went down there this time, but I was glad for what was there. A week or so ago, I may not have been able to get here.
I took a detour this afternoon and stopped at White River Falls in North Central Oregon. This is the lower falls only, handheld with my Canon L 70-200mm f/4.0. What a difference a lens makes. There’s a little more water going over this time of the year, due at least in part to the recent rain in the foothills and slightly warmer day time temps. I will post the long exposure shot of both falls later on as a continuation of my White River Falls seasonal series.
