Photos By Lie = photos by nata(Lie)

Hi all! "Photos By Lie" is a new blog of mine to showcase some of my photography. I want to try to build up a portfolio, in doing so I am trying to get more serious about my photo taking. I'm an intermediate photographer thinking about going pro, but I'll need a lot of practice and patients first! For right now I just want to get serious about taking great pictures.

Not long ago I had asked a group of friends on Facebook if they wouldn't mind volunteering for me to photograph them. The main purpose of this is to help me build up my portfolio. Well, its growing now :)

Here are a few photos that I took yesterday with a friend of mine, Hannah, and her dog, Cleo. We took a trip out to Brackenridge Park and I worked on my posing skills lol. Honestly I wish we had picked a different location. Mainly because there weren't a lot of opportunities for 'natural' photos... There was way too much visual noise everywhere (in the form of signs, other people and trashcans...) I think I got a few good ones in there though. Hannah was very happy with them which meansI did my job well right? I'm just taking it as a good learning opportunity :)

Oh - some cool news, I have another person wanting infant shots :) Never thought 5 quick pictures of a cute baby could set off a chain like that!

Photo of Hannah cropped from the waist up. She is to the left side of the frame, torso facing the right and head towards camera. You can see giant horizontal tree limbs behind her as well as a blanket of thick green leaves. There are dappled shadows on hannah's neck and torso from the sun shining through the leaves onto her.


Hannah and her black great dane Cleo standing on a small bridge. Hannah is leaning on the black metal fencing of the bridge smiling towards the camera. Cleo is half way out of the left side of the frame with her front half and head in it. She is also looking towards the camera with her tongue out and ears back in apparent enjoyment. Hannah with her black great dane Cleo standing on a bridge. Hannah has an arm up leaning on the black metal fencing of the bridge and she looks like she is talking to Cleo, with her head down in her direction. Cleo is standing perpendicular to hannah looking out of the right side of the frame.

Photo of Hannah and her black lab Cleo, Cleo is standing in front of hannah closer to the camera and in focus while Hannah is in the background and blurred out. Hannah is leaning against a large stone wall and Cleo is standing sideways to the camera with her ears all the way back with a goofy look on her face


Hannah and her black Dane Cleo posing for a picture. The image shows cleo with her front paws on hannah's shoulders while Cleo is licking Hannah's chin in a big Dane kiss. Hannah is leaning her head all the way back trying to keep her lips away from cleos tongue. The image is cropped from Hannah's chest up, you can see a the lush green leaves of a tree blanket in the background behind their heads.


Hannah and her Black Dane cleo on the edge of a creek wall. Hannah is sitting with her legs hanging over and facing the creek, her head is turned to the side facing the camera. Cleo is standing behind Hannah looking in the direction of the camera with her ears back and her tongue out in a goofy grin.
