Tracking Auto Focus

Still tinkering with the settings of the Sony A6000 and today I wanted to learn more about the focus settings. Since I love taking pictures of my 2 dogs, I needed to learn the auto focus settings for moving object....

I set it to Continuos Focusing Mode which is AF-C  with the focus area being wide. I was still having a bit of a problem getting it to focus specifically on my dog's eyes....

This one focused more on Riley's nose...still cute if you ask me...of course I am a bit biased...


What I actually had to do was to turn off the face recognition feature and turn on Center Lock-On Auto Focus....

There I was able to choose a specific point to focus on....this is better.... You can see that it is focused on the eyes and not the nose like the last picture




Not too big of a difference I guess but, for me, it is important to be able to focus on the eyes....for more impact...

Here are the rest photos I took after I got the settings down...also added +3 in exposure compensation for more light...

I call this photo session...

Planning Stage for our Conceptual High Fashion Shoot

So last weekend we had a collab with a group of photographers and we used some of my gowns from my wardrobe collection for the shoot. I also adorned some of the models with the fused glass jewelry that I created previously. I had so much fun that I decided my 3rd FASHION FLIRTY OPEN SHOOT EVENT will be one indoors. This kicked off my planning stage. I wanted this shoot to be a fully thought out, conceptual shoot with full on accessories, jewelry and wardrobe.... I met with one of my makeup artists to talk about a few ideas and today i have created a fb group that would serve as the "meeting ground" for the concept shoot team that is on private...and ill only add those participating in the event. The concept i have decided on is THE ELEMENTS OF ALCHEMY.... each model with represent an element as envisioned by the designers.... EARTH...FIRE...WIND/AIR....WATER.... AETHER.... and a sixth element METAL.... here are some of the details for the planning stage... 1......

Annloraine Open Shoot

So a few weeks ago my husband and I attended an open shoot at Parks and Wildlife in QC. It was our first openshoot and we actually had a lot of fun. Our first model was Annloraine. It was really nice taking pictures of her because she already knew how to pose...no need to direct her on what poses would look good. Here are some of our best shots...
