Instagram

My favorite iPhone app is "Instagram."  It is a photo sharing app where you can post, view, share, comment, like, etc pictures (kinda similar to Facebook but much more fun).  It also syncs up with Facebook, Twitter, etc so that your posts automatically go to your other accounts.  It has been my newest addiction.  If you use an iPhone I highly recommend getting it (after all, its free).  At any rate, 99% of my IG pictures are taken and edited with my iPhone (iPhoneography).  Its just my way of shooting random moments throughout my day (and without having to lug around my huge camera).  Anyway, here are a few and I'll post more as time goes on and categorize them as "Instagram" and will also include some reviews of my favorite iPhone editing apps under "iPhoneography."    If you add the IG app - look me and maybe even give me a "follow" - I'm @ctbishop8.  Give it a try and I'm sure you'll see why it is rated the #1 app of 2011.

Hope you enjoy....

She destroyed this 60 piece puzzle.  We thought it would be a challenge - oh well! 

Waiting to be baptized on Christmas Eve. 

Awesome tree at work.  Edited using snapseed on my iPhone (then posted to IG). 

Don't text and drive (probably also not a good idea to take pictures of sunsets and drive).  Another iPhone edit posted to IG.

Getting her hair done by mom! 

Excited about Christmas!

Another sunset edited using twistcam. 

2012 Wedding Pricing

Black & White

Betsy Watts and Josh Powell got married last fall.  It was a great wedding at Vineville Baptist Church followed by a reception at The Blacksmith Shop.  I edited several of her pictures for black and white and thought I'd share.  Betsy's mother, Dale Watts, is an amazing artist and if you're from Macon I'm sure you've seen some of her work (wish I had a link to post but can't seem to find one).  Anyway, hope you enjoy the pictures!     

 

 

Dalton Engagement

This session is from my archives of engagements from this past year.  Kim Dalton and Nick Kouloungis picked one of the coldest days last year to take their engagement pictures.  This was one of those sessions that took me by surprise....I had spoken with Kim on several occasions but had not yet met Nick. When they got out of their car, I had that "I know you but from where" feeling.  It didn't take us too long to realize that Nick and I knew each other from UGA.  At any rate, we survived the cold weather and got some great pictures out of it! 

Bryant Family

I had the opportunity to photograph some of my favorite people in Macon.  The Bryant + Hodgens + Gramm family have been friends of ours for many years.  The baby, Oak, was born just this past summer.  And less than 48 hours after this session ended, Lauren Summers had her new baby too!  It is always a joy to get to photograph the people you love. 

Gigi Babies

A friend of my wife has a children's clothing store, Gigi Babies.  She needed a few pictures of an outfit she made for our daughter, Abigail.  I don't do any of the shopping for our kids clothing; but, I can say that her stuff looks great on my kids and is very reasonably priced!  Check her out on Facebook or Etsy. 

Fall Colors

I took these on Thanksgiving Day last year.  The family is actually my sister and her in-laws.  After lunch, they wanted to find a nice place to take a picture.  We drove over to Wesleyan College and found this awesome tree.  The color of the tree was amazing!  Just one of those lucky finds that made for a great picture. 

Trying something new...

I'm trying something new tonight. I want to see how an iPhone post looks. These pictures are from a wedding I shot a while back. My wife posted them to Facebook, I saved them on my iPhone, and am trying to post via my phone.

I still have some weekends available for 2011 & 2012. Send me a message to schedule a free consultation.

Its been too long!

This posting is beyond overdue!  My wife has openend her own business (Peek-A-Boo Paintings);   Abigail is now four and has become a preschool social butterfly; we've been trying to sell our house since March; and, we've added another to our family.  I'm now the proud dad of two girls!  Mallory was born this past summer and, as most babies do, has demanded quite a bit of attention.  So, with these minor changes in my life I've allowed myself to fall way behind in updating my webiste and blog.  Fortunately, I've been able to stay comfortably busy shooting and have tons of images to post over the coming weeks.  I've also been busy updating my pricing structure and will post the changes soon.  So, for now here are a few pictures.... 

Mallory at 7 days old.

This shot was a bit of an accident.  Aubrey, my wife, was posing Mallory while I was testing my flash settings.  Turned out to be one of our favorite! 

Yep.  That's a chair in a yard.  Totally normal! 

Abigail was (and is) so excited to be a big sister! 

So - that's it for now.  I'll be updating quite a bit over the coming weeks so check back again soon.

 

 

A Walk on the Wild Side

The Friday after Thanksgiving I spent the evening with some of Macon Georgia's 2010 Bons Hommes ladies.  Their theme was "A Walk on the Wild Side."  It was a great night filled with "Jungle Juice" and dancing.  You can view pictures from the event by clicking HERE.  The username is "Bons Hommes" and the password is "26113".
