Sakura Koontz Photography

Hi there! About a month or two ago, I posted here saying that we are going to be offering different post-processing styles. This is one of them, and I am proud to announce the “attic” (psss…I might change the name later…it depends on the comments I receive). It looks like one of those photos that you find of your grandparents in the dusty boxes somewhere in your closet. It’s not quite b&w and not quite sepia. It has a bit of texture, which I totally love! I will start including photos with the “attic” touch in some of my future photos. Here are some examples from my previous sessions.

One from my recent shoot.

…and of course, I had to include my favorite photo from my wedding!

Here’s my favorite kid again, performing a magic trick for Jimmy and me. He was so darn professional…he had his own “customized” outfit and a drumroll to announce his entrance.

Totally concentrated….

Just look at how serious he is!

The only good thing about a chilly, cloudly day is the AWESOME light! Although we were shivering (can you tell?), I was loving the yummy light. Here are some of my favorites from today’s shoot at our very own Japanese Garden in Torrance…which I never knew existed until last week. Little E just had his first communion, and his sister asked me to take some photos for their mom. Hope you like it!

Just “monkeying” around

Grrr…showing off his muscles!

Miss E, an adorable 8th grader at J.H. Hull Middle School…my hubby’s alma mater!

Here’s a picture of J and B…aren’t they cute??

Totally LOVE this shot!

Several family photos for….shhhh…Mother’s Day!

…and we ended the shoot with a funny shot! Hope mom likes it!
