I was washing the dishes(that’s right by hand) the other night and I looked up and there was this sunset.
I don’t normally shoot this sort of image but I really liked it so here you go.
Hope you enjoy it too.

Roch and Heather Peladeau contacted me to shoot their family portrait.
We had a lot of fun.
It will be what I referrer to in the future as the perfect family portrait shoot.
Here’s their group shot they were the easiest group, I have ever had to pose.
A shot of Roch and the grandkids
One of just the grandkids
Their daughter Kelly has her own family, So we did a quick family shot of them as well.
Here’s a fun family shot we did in the backyard.
The pictures are fantastic. They came out better than I ever thought they would. You captured the kids and their personality exactly. You made it fun and easy to have our picture taken, when normally it can be stressful. Especially for the kids, who are often hard to have stay still. They laughed and thought it to be more of a game. It was great. The website is fantastic and so full of great information. Thank you for taking the photos and for making it a great time.
Thanks Kelly, you guys made it so easy, I really had a lot of fun.
I just wanted to say thank you so much for your patience during the shoot, it is never easy shooting kids, to say nothing of the family dogs! We had a great time and the pictures are beautiful. We will have to do it again….there will be additional people!
You and your family are some of the nicest people I have ever met.
It was my pleasure to help capture a few moments in your lives that you will be able to revisit in the future.
amazing pics
fine art tv is an amazing resource for photographers in my not so humble opinion.
This European photography website has a world wide membership and a completely different feel to me than the North American style
photography forum.

The World According to Pascal – AYA
Salve Mater, the ancient psychiatric hospital for women, in Lovenjoel near Brussels, is waiting to be transformed into a luxury residential village.
Meanwhile, the central building, former administrative center and monastery of the “Sisters of Charity”, has been transformed into the temporary
studio of Pascal Baetens.
Since 2003, he has been here creating not only his commercial assignments and photography workshops but also a remarkable body of artistic sessions that are based upon the history and vibrations of the place, his “Salve Mater” sessions.
I have spent this morning looking for inspiration. Yousuf Karsh has always managed to help in this department.
Foundations of a Working Photographer with Zack Arias day 3 has come to an end.
Zack uses day 3 to give shooting assignments to the 6 creativelive students.
This is in my opinion a great way to grow as a photographer, there is nothing like
getting up in front of an audience of your peers and performing a live shoot.
What I find most beneficial is Zack instructs his students to talk through the problems
they are having such as I don’t like my light, this lens is not working for me, ect…..
Zack then moves the critique portion of the day, where he and his wife Meg look
at each of the students websites and gives likes and dislikes on their work and
website in general.
Now this probably the most difficult thing for new photographers to accept, an honest critique of your
work from a true industry professional, but it is absolutely necessary to your growth as photographer.
The day finishes off with some very good information on building your portfolio,
creative vision and some business and marketing ideas.
Well day 2 has come to an end, all I can say WOW!!!
Zack starts off with know your light, and uses window light for a head shot of a multi talented break dancer.
Window light in Atlanta his base of operations is the norm for head shots.
Zack goes into more detail about the different lighting requirements for head shots in other cities.
He then moves into strobes and his signature white seamless look, classic Zack Arias.
The equipment being used is the very affordable Alien Bees.
Through out the shoot Zack explains the benefits and limitations of using Alien Bees.
Day 2 has a bonus roof top shoot in which Zack demonstrates lighting limitations of hot shoe flash in full sun.
Zack also shows us how to blend ambient light and strobe to create some really cool images.
As with day 1 the amount of information is staggering.
Here’s the pre-show banter where Zack describes the days timeline.
Well day one of Zack Arias “Foundations of a Working Photographer” is over and it was incredibly informative.
As usual Zack does not disappoint his teaching style and the volume of information is staggering.
If you missed the broadcast the rewatch has already started at creativeLIVE
