Macro Photography




















This past Wednesday was another monthly Photography Club meeting. We experimented with some macro photography. I love macro photography. In fact, it's how I started out on my journey as a photographer, back when I first found my passion in photography back in 2007. I love macro because you can photograph anything, anywhere, anytime. It's all around you. I love the different perspective macro photography gives to the world. It makes you really look at the things around you and shows how beautiful and unique and intricate nature and the world around you can be. It also sometimes allows you to see things you normally could not with the naked eye. I find it amazing.

"I really believe there are things no one would see if I never photographed them." -Diane Arbus

This quote was a huge inspiration in the beginning of the journey in finding my passion of photography.

One of my favorite macro photographers is Pat Kavanagh. You can check out some of his amazing photos HERE.
It is just amazing some of the photos of insects that he captures! The detail is absolutely amazing!

Model Search!

Ok, I am super excited to try out some new things this year! In order to start on these exciting series of projects, I will need some volunteer models. It’s kind of a tall order, but I need as many of you as I can get! I am looking for Females and Males to be models for me.
Please contact me if you are interested and you meet some (or all) of my requirements.
-You can be available to me most weekends. You can also be available to me for most evenings during the week.
-You have a fun/funky/unique clothing style (ex: urban chic, vintage, fashion queen ect..)
-Females: You love makeup and are willing to try different things with your makeup
-You can handle being in front of a camera for a couple hours a session (believe me, it will be so much fun you won’t notice it’s been 3 hours!)
-You live in or near Taber or Lethbridge (or travel to these towns often).
-You are just plain interested in photography, and would love to try out modelling!
Can not wait to hear from you! Contact me at justinereneephotography@yahoo.ca if you are interested, and would like to see some more of my work.
Cheers!
