My nephew had his 2nd birthday not too long ago and naturally I brought my camera along to snap a few shots. I swear these parties are more for the adults than they are for the kids. The keg of beer along with the jello shots really helps to reinforce that idea.
I’m in the habit of checking over my main settings when I power up my camera (ISO, Aperature priority mode, etc…) but I missed the fact that I had my flash setup for rear curtain sync from a previous project. I blame the beer
Sadly this resulted in the loss of a lot of (indoor) photos and even the ones I did salvage weren’t particularly good. I now know why the pros hit “reset” before every shoot. I’m just glad this wasn’t a paying job or I would have been in serious trouble.
Here’s a couple shots from the day’s events.
I have no idea what time we finally made it home… but it was late!
