3 tips to protect your engagement (and wedding) ring! ⁠
⁠
1. Clean it properly - different metals and stones may vary in the type of care they need. Get familiar with the materials your ring is made of so you can keep it sparkling for a lifetime!⁠
⁠
2. Get it insured - Mistakes and unexpected incidents happen! Whether your ring was passed down to you, or you're the first to wear it, it's now a family heirloom! It's worth the cost upfront to protect your ring, just in case!⁠
⁠
3. Take it off - Certain strenuous activities (like heavy lifting, or exercising) can cause a strain on the band. Over time, prongs can loosen and stones can fall out. Cleaning solutions and beauty products can also cause damage and discoloration of metals and stones.⁠

As promised! Here's that BTS breakdown of how I shot the "RGB" portrait I shared yesterday. The lighting & colors are all done in camera using additive color theory (think "color wheel") When you mix Red, Green, & Blue light together it makes White light! We set up three lights, each with a color gel to change their color output (R,G,B). All the lights are aimed toward the subject, but angled so that their beams cross and the colors combine. The result, my subject is lit with white light and the shadows of the three lights blend to make both a pattern and the secondary colors (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) Gear:

Excited to finally share that two of my images, of two of my gorgeous brides, were awarded a Merit in the International Photographic Competition (IPC) hosted by Professional Photographers of America (PPA) 🎉❤️ They also both placed in the Top 10 of the Wedding category for the Western District Competion leading up to IPC, which was a fun and unexpected surprise 😍 This was a first time competing for me. I've avoided photography competitions for so long with a whole list of excuses. But over the years I've heard so many express how much competing helped them grow as an artist. I finally gave in and decided to give it a go, with zero expectations. I decided to enter two of my favorite images from last year and just see how it would go. Both images went through multiple rounds of critique by trained judges who catch things I would never have even thought of! I learned a lot, spent hours in photoshop applying the suggestions from critique. I'm so excited and proud of the effort. Thankful for the education and the merits that will hopefully, maybe one day, will go toward a PPA photography degree⭐️ @ourppa #cpp #ipc #photographiccompetition #professionalphotographers
