Big Bertha's Adventures

Thanksgiving Photography


Nearly every occasion or non-occasion you’ll find me with a camera around my neck or within reach.  I like to be prepared.  I knew I’d be taking photos of food—but the day’s photo shoot took a different twist. 

My uncle, aunt and their daughters were visiting.  While the ladies were engaged in an art project, my uncle was admiring a collection of watches.  I soon realized he’d make a good fashion model.

I didn’t realize how accommodating he’d be—I asked him to place his hands on a table then on a chair.  Then I had him sit on a bench by the fireplace. He did everything without question.

Here are some highlights of the photo shoot.

I’m not sure who enjoyed this photo shoot more – my uncle or me.  It has inspired me to launch a new category on the blog:  Menswear.  Odds are if you wear striped button down shirts, nice shoes (dress or casual), patterned socks, cuff links or anything else that catches my eye you’ll end up in this new series.  Just warning everyone now.

Camera used:
Big Bertha (Canon EOS 5D Mark II)

Date:  November 28, 2013
Model:  My favorite uncle. 😉
