What do you do when it's crappy outside and everyone is bored? We have regular dance parties at our house. I decided to see if I could make today's party into a photo session. It was less successful than I had hoped for, mostly because my background was less than stellar. I need actual photo paper I think. It was also hard to capture the action with limited light. I even had actual studio lights set up, but my lens needed to be a different, more expensive one. A photography hobby is not a cheap hobby. By the way, if you want to buy me anything that I am lamenting I don't have, feel free. You can consider it an investment and I'll do your next family portraits for free. ;-)
Anyway, the ones of the girls turned out the best, mostly because they dance in predictable patterns and actually dance to the beat. I have no idea who taught the boys to dance (cough...dad!).

| I wanted a pure white background and to my eye, this background was pretty dang white, especially after I put some lights on it. But a lens don't always see what the eye does, at least not my lens. It's a good lens, don't get me wrong. The majority of the pics on this blog were taken with that lens, but it has its limitations. |
