Went to Maci and Tyler's today for lunch. As always, when we go in the door, Sherri gets Pyper and I get Wilco. He likes to get (and keep) your attention. After a while, he finally gave up and went to the chair back for some rest...
simple memories...
Amazing that my youngest daughter Sadi is driving now. This just means that Sherri and I are getting older. Sadi only has her permit, so we have to be in the car with her. Of course I use this as an opportunity to take pictures of her. Here is one that I took this afternoon with my Leica M8. Created two different versions because both have a unique character. In the first one I used the Vintage Photo preset in Aperture to give it an faded/muted look. In the second one I used the contrast and structure settings in Silver Efex Pro to give the photo a very clean/detailed look. I love always having a camera with me and being able to create memories of all parts of our lives together as a family...
pyper posing...
Ok, so the blog is becoming the 'troy-bradford-taking-pictures-of-pyper' blog. I promise that I have some other things to post about. Pyper seems to be the only willing subject that never gripes about how I edit her photo. Took these tonight at Tyler and Maci's apartment. Love how the M8 and Summicron lens can make a mediocre picture still look good because of the bokeh. Converted them using the "Ink" setting in Color Efex Pro. The pictures are a little noisy because they were taken at a higher ISO, indoor lighting with no flash (at night). But Pyper smiled and posed anyway...

Pyper and Maci came by today when I was leaving for work at lunch and then she was still here when I got home. She spent some time with me and my Leica out on the patio. I also included a picture from this past weekend in our kitchen. I love being able to snap quick pictures of her with my M8/50 Summicron combo and process them in Silver Efex Pro. There are no pictures like them...
an afternoon with pyper...
Got to spend the afternoon with Pyper! It would be a waste of an afternoon if I didn't create a memory... Set up my new gray background with the studio lights and waited on Pyper to wake up from her nap. Couldn't wait to try and get a good photo of her sitting up. Wow, it is hard to get a "posed" picture of a 6 month old. Here is one of the keepers...
