the b&w holiday project/dec 2008. caroline tran

When I think of the holidays, I immediately think of twinkle lights and bokeh. A client originally wanted to decorate her house with holiday decor for her baby's shoot, but didn't have the time. I suggested her to just bring a strand of twinkle lights and some ornaments. My husband held up the twinkle lights in the background and I pulled them all the way into the foreground. I didn't anticipate the yawn, but the yawn was totally an added bonus as I do equate the holidays with sleeping in. Nothing like curling up in a warm bed.

the holiday project/Dec 2008 . Steve Davis


I saw this scene late one night on my way home from Orange County. I thought it was just what I'd been looking to shoot for my holiday project. From the beginning I'd envisioned a nostalgic black and white treatment for the image. After playing with various lengths of exposure, I settled on the 14 seconds you see here.

Happy Holidays!
Steve
