Flashing Pretty Girls ;)

A couple weeks ago, my friend and old photo instructor, Peter, asked me to assist him in a workshop he was doing for small flash photography.  I took a bunch of random behind the scenes type shots (some for me, but mostly for his blog) and here are a few random ones I've had the time to process.  I'll probably be posting more later (I shot a lot and have been a little lazy sifting through them).

Killing Time with Photo-Retouching!

Every so often things get slow at work, and I'm left to my own devices to try to pass the day.  Most of the time I'm on reddit, mining basketball news, or stuck in a wikipedia loop.  But lately,  I've been having fun pulling random photos (from flickr, or the random employee shots for our online directory at work) and messing with them in Photoshop.  It's surprisingly addictive, seeing how much you can tweak a photo without making someone look like a mutant :-D.   

*Disclaimer: All photos belong to those people's who's flickrs I took them off of and the last 2 specifically belong to Mountain West Financial, Inc.

This was shot by my friend from class, Anita Malony.

This shot belongs to Phoenix Photography (whoever he/she is)

This is a shot from work that a broker gave me for her business card.

On a quick side note:  I intend to start updating this blog on a more regular basis, (specifically, every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month).  So for those of you who look for updates (SHOUT OUTS TO MOM!), there you go.

As always, Thanks for reading!
