		<title>BTS &#8211; The 2011 Christmas Card</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just a quick post on what went in to making our 2011 Christmas card that can be seen over on the main site. The idea came after our visit to the LEGO Kid Fest in Cleveland a month or so ago.  Every year these things seem to get more complex, but that&#8217;s part of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is There a Difference?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Obvisiouly there is a difference, but which do you prefer? Granted neither shot is some award winning children&#8217;s portrait, but this is about the differences in technology. One image was shot using my 5D mkII as a RAW file and converted to grayscale using the LR preset. Nothing else was adjusted &#8211; straight out of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Making a Christmas Card</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Christmas has rolled around again &#8211; just like it did last year.  Around our house that means decorations, cookies and an family photo Christmas card.  Well, more like an akward family photo&#8230; This year the theme is Griswald. Things got underway by acquiring an RV.  That right there is a recreational vehicle! Then it was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Into Stebbin&#8217;s Gulch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Portrait and wedding season is winding down and that means more time to head out and just shoot for the sake of shooting. Last week I got invited to go on a hike into Stebbin&#8217;s Gulch at the Holden Arboretum. I&#8217;ve been there twice before but only in the dead of winter with Ian Adams. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Macro Zack Arias</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a big fan of Zack Arias.  Not just because of his photography, but because of his philosophy.  A few weeks back he took part in a three day workshop over at Creative Live (David DuChemin is on this weekend &#8211; check it out!) and ever since I&#8217;ve been wanting to shoot on white seemless.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;d Walk 100mm for You</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Left of Center has become all about contemporary coverage of wedding and family portraits but that wasn&#8217;t how it started out.  Originally, I spend most of my time out in nature taking pictures just like these and hanging them in galleries all around town.  In fact, this is the first year since 2008 that I&#8217;ll [...]]]></description>

		<title>Editing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[People say to me all the time &#8220;How did you get that photo to look like that?&#8221; Actually (doh!) nobody has ever said that, but I thought I&#8217;d do a little post on how I edit from straight out of camera to finished file. So here is the shot of Carter and Paige sitting a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Behind the Scenes &#8211; Sports Portraits</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a summer tradition, or fall, depending on what sport your child plays.  Opening Day rolls around and it&#8217;s team photo time.  Usually you end up with something looking like this or maybe this. Really there is no reason you shouldn&#8217;t have this&#8230; And it&#8217;s just a simple three light setup. I&#8217;m sure the photographer [...]]]></description>
