When I share client’s photos on my blog I always have a hard time picking which ones to choose.  I tell my clients I’ll show photos that make me smile.  As they are waiting for the whole gallery of pictures, sometimes they want to know if the ones that make it on the blog are the “best” from their session.  But, again…it’s a complicated process…the ones that make me smile at first glance make it on. 🙂

After I go through and edit all the images, other photos will stand out and I’ll wish I had posted those too.  So, today, I was driving through Seal Beach and wanted to share a few images from under the pier that never made it on the blog.

As a little tidbit for the non-professionals…I look for light that’s coming in at a 45 degree angle to my subject.  That means I like using the side of a building, the entry way of a house, anything that will bend the light and create soft/even lighting.  The pier is perfect for this…the lighting is gorgeous.
