Flashes & Strokes: a Tale of Two Mediums

The digital and traditional arts are thriving in San Diego. From newer, technology based media like photography and digital art to more traditional art, there is so much to see, explore and learn from in Southern California. Through our Flashes and Strokes series, we’d like to celebrate artists from both worlds: traditional and digital.

I really enjoy photographing families and It is always fun (and a must) to get the mama and daddy away from the babe for a few moments alone in front of the camera. Time together as husband and wife is often neglected. A couple of stolen moments is such a beautiful thing. Especially when I get to capture it. . . . . #lifelovecheers #photosbycrissymilroy #familyphotographer #familyphotography #familyphotoshoot #socalphotographer #socalphotography #socal #redlands #prospectparkredlands #redlandsphotographer #highlandphotographer #yucaipaphotographer #freshairphotography #outsideismystudio #stolenmoments #husbandandwife #nikon #nikonforlife

Day 5 of 31 Can we take a hot minute to just like appreciate my co-editor looks 😫 But forreal upon retrospection, this picture isn’t anything special. Its actually so boring in terms of composition. There are so many things I could have done on my end to make this look better. The thing that plagues this photo the most is how the rocks in the background seem seem like a part of the foreground. I should have asked meilani to step farther away from the rocks and more towards me so that I could create a larger contrast between her and the background. Doing this would make her (the subject of the photo) pop out more. Our eyes would also naturally pop to her instead of both her and the rocks. Tl;dr I should have asked Meilani to step forward to create more contrast

The moment the sun had set. ⁣ ⁣ This was from last week while we had family in town. We took them to La Jolla to check out the seals, tidepools, watch the sunset and have dinner. It was a great way to spend the day.⁣ ⁣ Tidepools | La Jolla, CA | December, 2018
