Actually... I'm fibbing a bit -- she offered up her time to allow Ty and I to get some camera practice with a real human being for us to practice some portrait style shots.
First -- I can NOT believe that I live SO close to the Valley Ho and had never been there before. All I really have to say about that place is "WOW!" I still can't get it's Retro, yet Modern image out of my head. I want to redecorate our house exactly like this place! And, with it's unique architecture and COLOR everywhere... the photo possibilities are endless. I will definitely be returning there soon!
Second -- Thanks to Erica for being a spectacular model. We still have a weakness for "posing" people -- and I'm not really fond of "posing" anyways. I love natural candid photos. But, Erica has a natural ability to pose herself, look great in a photograph, and damn -- look at those EYES! She's gorgeous!
Third -- I give 50% of this credit to my amazingly talented husband. I think this whole photography thing will be a joint effort, and I am SO excited! He seems to be a natural at this. He always has great creative ideas.... and (yes -- I actually shared the camera!) I'm a very humble, grounded person -- but, I just want to brag a little bit. I am really proud of these shots! =D
And, now -- I'd like to present Erica Jordan at hotel Valley Ho. By Brenda & Tyler Reed Photography! ;p
Being a woman of "few" words...(stop laughing!).... all I can say is.... these are Amazing!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBrenda.. I also wanted to mention how much I enjoy your blog! You are a natural at this! Love it love it love it! (I will have to get you to help me set yup a blog for Krystal and Erica's brother, Michael...he wants me to set him up with a face book page and a blog that he will contribute too by sending me stuff (including a regular newsletter to family and friends) and other stuff that he writes and draws... I have never done a blog and have no idea how to start one....
