Generation Photography

As some of you may know. I use Adobe Lightroom to process all my photos in conjunction with Photoshop CS3. I’ve been trying out the beta version of Lightroom since it came out, and was hoping the final version will be released so I can really use it. Well just this week, Adobe released the 2nd version of Lightroom and I am so very excited about all the new features. What this means is that I will spend less time going between programs to process my images to get the look that I want. It will also support dual monitors, something I’ve been dying to use since getting my second monitor.

So, what does this mean to you? Well hopefully, once I get adjusted to all the new features, I will be able to release your beautiful pictures in a shorter time frame. You’ll also get more final images in your proofs so you won’t have to wait for the album to see everything.

Anyways, I know a lot of you are into photography, so check it out HERE. There is also a free trial if you are in a curious mood.

I’m back from Vegas and I had a blast with my girlfriend! The heat was scorching, but thank goodness that it was very dry, so it was actually quite bearable despite being in the high 30′s! Here is the first night where we walked by New York New York.

Being so hot, we hit up the pool at the MGM. They had an awesome river pool where you can just float around and it’ll just keep you moving along. Here’s me lounging around under some shade.

We also did A LOT of walking around through the hotels and on the street. It’s not my first time to Vegas, but I always underestimate how far things are. The map is so deceptive. One block in Vegas is like 6 blocks in Vancouver.

Here is me at the Wynn buffet. It was very nice inside and there was tons of food. I was a bit disappointed that I got full so fast. Last year, I think I squeezed in a couple plates more of those crab legs. MMMMmmm!

And it isn’t Vegas without some night life! We went to the club at Caesars Palace called PURE. It was pretty awesome because we got on the VIP list, so no waiting in line! And we also didn’t have to pay for cover! The club is connected to the Pussy Cat Doll lounge. Despite having a stage and all, no one came out to dance, so disappointed. I think they were all too busy dancing outside on the gaming floor to attract those blackjack players.

And lastly, I went on the New York New York roller coaster. What a ride! I don’t usually get too scared from roller coaster, but this one had me on edge. Highly recommended if you are heading to Vegas.

Btw, some of these were taken with my iPhone, so quality might be meh!

Met with a client today in downtown, so I decide to go for some shots around the city since it was so sunny. Boy was I wrong. Five minutes in, it started to snow/hail. This green soccer field was covered white fast!

Here is what I took today. Tried some new processing. Check out the one at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Garden. It’s really dramatic! Not something I’ll use for weddings, but it’s fun to just play around. Enjoy!
