A bachelor western lowland gorilla from the Santa Barbara Zoo earlier today.
I’m hopeful that Shayna and I can get back to posting on Aperture more often. The light is certainly more favorable for it.

Calling…, originally uploaded by Ted Cabeen.
I really enjoy taking pictures of random people on the UCSB campus. Here’s a guy engaged in a very interesting cell phone call.

punks, originally uploaded by Shayna Ingram.
A mime-inspired, vaudeville-ish, carnivale-like troupe of characters that call themselves Steam Powered Giraffe. Admittedly, this isn’t the best portrait of four people (blurred hands, closed eyes), but the look on the third man’s face made it worth it to me.

My boy helped me by posing for portraits and letting me drag him around our neighborhood looking for good light.

Brad and Baby, originally uploaded by Ted Cabeen.
I haven’t been taking as many pictures as I’d like recently, but I did get this one from Saturday’s Miracle Fruit party. It’s a little dark, but Brad looks very cute holding that baby. He should do it more often!

mom, originally uploaded by Shayna Ingram.
My awesome mother let me take a couple head shots of her. I took this in bright sunlight, under a patio umbrella. Diffused light, yay!

I caught this guy totally off the cuff while waiting for Shayna at lunch one day. I love the lighting on his face.

Portrait #2, originally uploaded by Ted Cabeen.
This picture came out interestingly. The focus was good, but the original was too red. I found a new way in Lightroom to adjust the colors (using the photo to identify which hues to adjust) , and was able to bring it down about the amount I wanted without too much trouble. I’m excited about playing with color adjustment in the future.

This is my first attempt at taking a portrait shot and converting it to greyscale. One important thing when framing/editing to greyscale is getting sufficient contrast between the subject and the background. In this case, my grandfather’s shirt was a pretty bright blue. I had to tone the blues down so that he stood out from it properly. It was an interesting challenge.

sugarplums, originally uploaded by Shayna Ingram.
From a photo shoot we did with two local girls for family holiday pictures. Not a fan of the hand being cut off. I feel like the angle is interesting, but could have been better. I do like their expressions, the color contrast, and the orientation. This was a super fun and challenging project.

A “surprise” portrait of a dear friend who I’ve known since first grade. This photo captured her personality. The focus is a little off, especially in her eye. I’m going to work on street and people photography more — I realized I need to work on it after Ted was clearly more successful in our photography shoot two weekends ago with a local mother and daughter.

Grandma and Granddaughter, originally uploaded by Ted Cabeen.
My mom with Rebecca. This picture came out super well. I’m not 100% sure I took it (it was from Dad’s camera), but I think I did. It feels very much like a posed photo, and the light (totally natural) really illuminated her well. In ANTM terms, she found her light.
