Long time, No See

Wow! It has been a long time since I got a spare moment to rip out a blog post. I have been busy shooting, designing, shooting, editing, designing, shooting and editing!!

We just got back from a looooong-overdue vacation to Jamaica. More on that will follow later in June when I post the photos. Suffice it to say, the trip was amazing.

We’ve celebrated the girls’ birthdays, traveled, started new businesses, and all sorts of other fun things that I just can’t wait to tell you about.

I have queued a backlog of photo sessions ready to post and plan to do it all this coming week. Some will be a little outta order, as I want to share my weddings and engagements first with lots of seniors mixed in between. Please let me know what you think of the photos when they are posted, k? I LOVE to hear from you all!

A few special surprises are coming as well and will be showing themselves very soon!

Oh! and to quickly wrap this up, here are a few photos of the little ladies that rule our home…

Ashlyn is in Pink, Jillian in Purple.

Christmas Joy 2007

Ho-ho-ho-happy people!

Christmas is just around the corner! When you are done rockin’ around the Christmas tree, please remember that the last chance you’ll have to guarantee Christmas delivery of products and prints from Steller Photography is if orders are placed by December 3rd. Our suppliers are hit hard during the holidays as their elves rush to complete orders, so our normal turnaround is affected as well. Anything ordered after December 3rd cannot be guaranteed to arrive before Christmas.

Merry Christmas to all my amazing clients!

-dustin

p.s. I like to post a picture with my posts, so in keeping with that tradition…here are some recent pics of my girls from a couple weeks ago. My redheads are getting so big!

    just wanted to stop by and say hi your girls are adorable happy holidays =)

From the Archives: #001

I was going through some photos I took over a year ago, and found myself looking at the RAW files with fresh eyes. I reprocessed the photo with my current toolset and it made me happy inside, so since it was older work (pre-blog), I decided maybe you all, my faithful blog-stalkers, might like to see my old junk…Please keep in mind, these were shot with my old Nikon D70.

I will add to this intermittently, but only if you all want me to. Let me know if you would like to see more of my old work. If anything, we can share in the humiliation and I can show you how far I am hopefully coming.

    WOW check out her eyes! Just awesome! Don’t knock the D70, I have one as my backup and they rock :)

  2. Dennis

    The movement in her hair is cool.

  3. scott neumyer

    Dude…that is an INSANELY good shot! Let’s see more from those archives. I love going back and finally some gems that I’d initially dismissed. :)

  4. Shannon

    Humiliation? How far you have come? Hmmm, apparently you have always rocked! Beautiful! And yes, love to see more :)

  5. Hogie

    Dustin, bring on the “old” stuff. IF it looks anything like this then I don’t want to miss a single shot. Fantastic work!

  6. Katie

    Wow! It’s beautiful! Love the hair blowing.

  7. Luke

    !wow!

  8. Jan

    That’s pretty HOT man. And, as we all know, it’s never the camera that makes the photo. More please!!

  9. KellyT

    I can’t believe that shot is a year old! It’s one of my favorites from that session.

  10. Tana Huffman

    Absolutely stunning Dustin!! By far, one of the best pics I’ve seen lately! I’m jealous!!! :)

  11. Jessica Oatman

    Love what you are doing with past images. It’s the best when you can go back and revamp a picture to make it even better. love it!

  12. Wahoo

    Thank you for sharing!
