Hey everyone,

I'd love to hear what you guys think of some recent engagement shots I did here in Santa Barbara. It is so fun to me to get inspired by the OSP crew. The challenge comes in trying to do something unique in response to you guys raising the bar (on a daily basis!!)

With the exception of the last "late night Mike Colon/David Jay shout out image", that's a bit of what I was up to.

Comments welcome. Thanks you guys!

Nice shot!

Flash?

Looking good. I definitely like the more dramatic (I hate that word) moody (dislike that one) outta-control-in-a-good-way lighting that comes in night shots. Much more exciting that way I think.

YOU are the one raising the bar Dane.

Way to go.

So......Dane........buddy......................can I ride your vespa?????? (pretty please????)

Haha!!!!

Thanks man. Ya, no flash.

was that a "haha of course you can my friend!"

or

was that a "haha you're out of your freakin mind."

???

Dane...awesome awesome.

Did you use your IS 70-200 on most of those shots?

(i just got mine and I have a sweet engagement session with the pro baseball player this weekend)...

trying to get her creative juices flowing..

Dane... they look so gorgeous!!!! I am sure they will be totally thrilled.

You ROCK!

Nice Dane. I especially like the grass one.

Haha!!!

LOL

Thanks KK. I did you that lens. I swear that thing is a workhorse. I can't wait to see what you come up with this weekend!!!

Thanks Amber!

Any luck persuading Nathan about coming west?

On your team!!

Great stuff Dane! I especially like the shot on the grass. Interesting blog too, I wish I can write interestingly like you do!

It's not Nathan that needs persuading.... there's just no way to make it work
I trust that you guys will show him a good time anyway

I'm sure we'll figure something out . I'll try to keep Tim and DJ in check.
