Wow! Great set of pictures. Kept thinking they couldn’t get better and then I would scroll down and they would.
Your favorite is my favorite. Love it. Love how you didn’t over retouch out the “blemishes” – great shot.
Awesome work! what lens did you use. Love the bokeh!
GORGEOUS bokeh!

Yeah Yeah Yeah! Sooo jealous. Tony… your fan group grows by the day out in Pittsburgh. Blogstalking is now a past time.
Oh yeah and Andrea… you look hot too. Favorite one is second to last in the hay.
It was worth it for the dress (then again I wasn’t the one out in the cold) – it really made some of those outdoor shots. I love the one in front of the barn. And hey – if Im not mistaken those are my boots!:) Looks like they’ve gotten into some of your photos before me! Good to say a quick “hey” to you yesterday Tony!
AMAZING…as always, Tony!! looks like it was a good decision to grab those shots at the end…everyone seems to love them :) also…i forgot about a 100 year old oak tree thats there…HUGE branches that come down onto the ground, could have had some beautiful shots there..next time =)
That’s it. I’m starting a Tilt-Shift fund for myself.
I’m with Lindsay, Tilt-Shift fund starts today.
Tony knows light.
Excellent images and beautifully post processed.
beautiful model+one bada$$ photographer=awesome shoot.
i enjoy the slideshow/gallery…it’s a new year, try something new!
:o)
Beautiful work Tony. Love the new Blog and the slideshow was a great idea, perfect tempo to the image changes as well. Any slower and I would prefer to scroll.
Very nice. 24TS-E? Stellar work as always and Kate sure did great as well!
As for the slideshow… First, they need to stay up longer. Like another one or two seconds. I know it can also be controlled.. I sorta like having them all listed out, even if it might make your pages very long. I like to scroll through images personally. Probably the biggest disadvantage is that you have to use flash for the slideshow. If someone were to come by on a mobile device, there could be issues.
Otherwise, I think its a very nice player and blends very nicely into your site. Which slideshow player are you using?
What about showing a few of my favorites, then having the rest below in a slideshow?
Love the ones taken outside in the gray dress and adore the last shot with her dog.
I look at far more images when they are all displayed for me to scroll through so I am anti-slideshow. I don’t want to wait for the load time plus I use ClickToFlash because Flash is so poorly done on the Mac so by default I don’t even see the gallery.
I’m guessing 45 TS/E?
I see you had to ditch ffffff as the bg color of the slideshow as well… mine was turning turquoise. I was told fffffe was closest, you may want to try that. I would say increase the time by .5 sec, it’s a bit fast especially when viewing two verticals together. I also wanted to ask where you got the share buttons underneath, I want to do something like that on my blog. Come over and leave your comment for me, too! :) Cheers, Kristina
Watch out world, Tony got a new toy! I think the ones like #4 where the out of focus areas are used more subtly are strongest. Awesome work as usual.
I prefer to scroll. Looks like you had some fun with the new toy.
Oh, tilt shift. (right?) These are just lovely. The tops of the trees in that one diptych are mesmerizing. What’s interesting is b/c I subscribe to your blog via google reader, they always come out for me to scroll through. The slide show apparently doesn’t translate into Reader. Interesting.
I have the biggest smile on my face! I LOVE the photos of my sissy! I have soooo many favorites.
In regard to the slideshow, I always skip past them on blogs. I am just very impatient and like to be able to scroll through images…
She is GORGEOUS!! You are lucky to have such good looking friends ;) As for the slideshow, I think I prefer to scroll through. Great work Tony!
Hey Tony,
This is my first time commenting, but I am always looking for your posts on Fred and get excited when I see your name. I love your style. I have been shooting for a year and have learnt so much from you and others and I want to take that opportunity to thank you for sharing with other artists. I really enjoyed the slide show, sometimes I scroll through pictures too quickly and I miss things. So this way really makes you savour every image.
Nice!
I do like the slideshow, especially if the speed is able to be controlled by the viewer. Great shots & she is beautiful!
My only other question is….why didn’t you choose Nate?? ;)
a really lovely shoot… beautiful images & subject! i prefer to scroll
Beautiful!
SCROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
you are awesome. Love the slideshow but only saw it on the desktop not on the iphone…..that would be my ONLY complaint….these are just beautiful!
I had to leave my google reader blog stalking to come post. I was going to say that I wouldn’t be able to view the slideshow on google reader, but all the pictures showed up in my google reader as individual pictures. So now that I’m at your site on my iPhone, i can’t view all the photos. I am not a fan of the slideshows myself. I rarely look at them on other photography blogs.
Love your work! I prefer to scroll through all of the images. I can’t view them one the iphone with a slideshow. Personally I would like to scroll through all instead of just favorites.
Beautiful slide…and work. :)
Srolling for me Tony! Keep up the killer work man.
Great slideshow Tony! However, I’d suggest you do the hybrid: favorites in large images and the rest in a slideshow. The reason being that Google will have an easier time finding the images and indexing them when people do a local images-based search.
Definitely prefer scroll. Great pictures!
What a fierce set of photos. Your model is gorgeous…hard to believe she is an amateur!!! I dig a combo of scroll and then slideshow. I have to admit though I rarely sit throw the slideshow on other photogs websites; BUT I do dig this slideshow set up.
Thanks everybody! I guess the conclusion is that everyone likes the photos and hates the slideshow… Hahaha. Noted!
Love them! Particularly numbers 4 & 11 – the light and the color are so brilliant together.
Georgeous model!
Tony! I actually prefer the slideshow. Scrolling is ok but everytime I try to scroll and the pictures aren’t done loading it keeps pushing the page up and I lose my spot! But if you keep it scrolling, I won’t stop stalking so do what you like best! Also, if you’re ever looking to do an experiment shoot like this again and need somebody, let me know. Always nice to update my pictures!
I know Nate, and I have pictures (and video) of him in that Speedo! You made a good choice.

Megan:
I’m so in love with this family. You captured everything wonderful about them! I will never forget how Sofia wanted her picture taken just like me. Fantastic job as usual!
Jenika:
What a sensationally beautiful family shoot. That first black and white is total perfection – if that were my family I’d buy the world’s biggest canvas print of that and hang it in my living room. It’s just so stunning and timeless. Great work!
Amanda:
You guys make me think “Man, I can’t wait to have kids so Tony and Amy can capture amazing shots like this for mine and Ed’s walls!” Haha… then I remember, we need to get through the wedding first! :)
