The Art of no-posing family portraits…

May 11, 2014

The Ewing family have been coming to me for a few years now.

I photographed their wedding and have seen their two kids grow. And they’re still young. And restless as kids are.

I do my best not to structure my poses too much. Yea, I have a rule in my studio…..”never argue with a three year old”. In other words, don’t tell them what to do. Or pose. Or how to sit. Same goes, for the most part, with four year olds, two year olds..all ages.

And when they bring the family dog in (something I always urge and welcome!) it can get a lot more challenging. Thankfully their dog was so easy going and chilled out he woulda kicked back and snoozed on the spot….some samples..no, or very little posing involved….

Why not. There are many great locations in and near Sudbury. As long as it’s summer-ish, not too many people nearby and not too many bugs.

Weird and offbeat locations in Sudbury for wedding photography….

October 12, 2012 By robprov Leave a Comment

Okay, I’ll admit, these are some weird and offbeat locations in Sudbury for wedding photography….don’t you agree? From rooftops, downtown streets and train trestle…can you identify any of these locations? The train trestle is not in Sudbury, but about a 30 minute drive…west. These were shot for a wedding magazine, and were not supposed to […]

A more traditional executive portrait..

October 2, 2012 By robprov Leave a Comment

I see many ideas and strategies for professional portraits these days. It’s almost as if the sky is the limit and so is ones imagination. Why not?! But I do appreciate a straight up head and shoulder pose…classic……

Just about anything, anywhere works when it comes to capturing some cool, offbeat wedding photography…even in Sudbury, Ontario. All we need to do is get creative and see the possibilities….a back alley, gatchell area…. Is that a train trestle? Yup, on the bottom  of Beattie St… Same area….. ok, same area…using the dress as  a […]
