Peg Kerr's Journal

Today we had karate portraits taken. Fiona and I both had triple exposure pictures taken to celebrate our new black belts (Fiona, second degree and me, first degree) (See the example in the icon, the one she had taken when she was awarded her first degree black belt in 2008). Fiona was also included in the assistant staff portrait, below. Fiona drew the short straw and had to hold the pose in the deepest stance:

I'll post the triple exposure portraits of the two of us when they arrive; they will be sent out later.

We got our new karate pictures. We don't have Fiona's yet: we got a special triple exposure picture done, to celebrate her new black belt, and that has to be finalized through the studio. In one pose, she was kicking a high round kick, in one she was posing in a front stance with her kamas, and one is a closeup, and then the three pictures will be combined together into one. I'm sure it'll look great. I'll post it as soon as we get it. But we are pretty pleased with the ones we've received already. Delia's, of course, is spectacular, and I look at mine and think, hey, not too shabby for a woman pushing fifty, no?

Edited to add: We've got Fiona's picture, too, now: see here.
