Shot a wedding right where you're sitting, and inside the restaurant behind you. Cool.

i so wish I could take a class - But I get quiet a lot of tips from your videos too :). Had a question for you - Are your images going to have a painterly feel to them now onwards? I kinda liked the granularity and rustiness of the earlier ones. Also if smhow the reflections could have been retained it'd have been fabulous. Love the RED!! Cheers!

someday do you mind showing us how you edit the tiny piece of fabric together to make a dress? it'll be useful during times when i dont have a dress on hand but can carry around a piece of fabric instead, thanks! (:

hey brooke, how do you get the camera to take the picture at the exact right moment? do you have a remote control you use for your camera?

@3eckyLynne This was a rare time when I had my friend pushing the button - I set everything up (the manual settings, camera on tripod, etc) then I would wave my arm when I wanted her to push the shutter (sort of like when I would trigger my 2-sec remote). Most of the time though I use a remote or 10-sec camera self timer :)

Looked like you were trying to net some fish. Was probably asian's on the beach thinking "she's doing it all wrong!"

I didn't know you had a fear of the ocean. I'm fine in the ocean during the day....at night is a whole different story.
