The thrill of the Hunt!
As we mentioned in the last post, we recently participated in a photo scavenger hunt with several other wedding photographers and vendors. Our friend Marc Wheeler, who puts on the fabulous Wedding Festival bridal shows with his wife Colleen, organized the hunt. He came up with some pretty interesting and challenging things to look for. For instance, nobody got a shot of a Delorean!
From the looks of it, we may have actually accumulated the most points and might be the winners. We say might because we haven't counted everyone else's points but we are somewhere in the lead. The winners will be announced March 4th and the anticipation is killing us. Win or lose it was just fun to get out and photograph something different.
Here are some of our favorites that we found:
"Bee on a flower"
Nothing too challenging right? Well, understand we did this hunt in November so you would think the bees would be hibernating or something. Thanks to global warming though, we found tons of them swarming flowers at Falls Park.
"Campfire"
This one comes complete with Union soldier sleeping in the background.
"Moving house"
We saw this "house on wheels" on the interstate while driving to an engagement shoot at USC.
"Two-headed anything"
Yeah right! Where are we going to find an animal with two heads? So we got the bright idea of finding a dragon with multiple heads (or a hydra for fellow word nerds).
"Rowboat"
One of our favorites because it looks reminiscent of something you'd see in a quaint fishing village. You would never guess this was in the middle of Greenville.
Here are some shots from our vacation in the Smokey Mountains. We stayed in the Pigeon Forge area which we are convinced is the biggest tourist trap in the world (and we've been to Orlando, FL many times). We've never seen so many "Pancake Houses" in our lives. They must think tourists crave pancakes 24-7. Needless to say we spent most of our time hiking the national forest and seeing waterfalls. We saw otters, turkey, deer and even a bear! If you are ever in the area, you have to drive the Cades Cove loop. We have never seen so many deer in one place before and the scenery is magnificent.
The animals are so used to the cars and people, they just walk right in front of you.
One of the more adventurous things we did was go on an ATV excursion up the side of a mountain.
Here we are looking especially chic in our enormous helmets and goggles.
More fun posts to come!
