Ring Shots Part VI

January 19th, 2009 @ 11:40 pm by Mrs. Penguin

Part I,II, III,IV, V

All good things must come to an end, so this is the last installment in our ring shot series.  Thanks to everyone who took the time to send in their gorgeous ring pictures! This has been so much fun!

If you’d like to keep this series going, please start a thread on the boards, and perhaps we can bring it back one day. :)

So without further ado…

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings B181446010.jpg
izon2b took this with her Canon Powershot SD75 and natural lighting.

Melissa took this with her Canon Powershot and used Photoshop to increase the contrast.  This picture is very fitting because her friends and family call Melisssa and her fiance M&M.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings B18144602.jpg
Munkigg took this picture the day before her wedding in her mom’s backyard with her Fuji FinePix S1000fd.  Her mom had some beautiful geraniums that they placed on the shawl that came with Munkigg’s wedding dress.

A Hot Pink Petticoat took this on a wine bottle cover with her Olympus FE-330.  The engagement ring was chosen by her fiance, and their bands were handmade at The Devil’s Workshop in Toronto.

Kelly took this picture of her ring amongst dried fall leaves from her wedding bouquet.  She just got married this past November and had a fall themed wedding.

MsKris took this with her Canon Powershot SD450 in macro mode.  The cork is from the champagne she and her fiance drank after her proposed.

It’s Laura’s 6 month anniversary tomorrow!  She took this picture with her Canon Powershot in Macro mode, on top of some coral (which was appropriate since they had a beach themed wedding).  Her ring is a vintage inspired platinum design, and her husband’s is white gold with a Greek key design.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings B181446.jpg
caitlanc’s ring is photographed on a picture that her fiance drew of her dad’s farm, which also happens to be where they’ll be getting married.  Her fiance designed the ring himself, incorporating the diamond that his aunt gave him, and setting it in his grandmother’s 25th anniversary band.  The sapphires are for her “Cameron blue” eyes.

Lina collects giraffes, so she has a giraffe ring holder!  Her rings are on top and her husband’s are below.

2bABC took this with a Canon Rebel XT.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings Simonerosew
Pictured above is Simonerosew’s 1.02 carat Tiffany Princess cut engagement ring, her sapphire and diamond wedding band, and her fiance’s wedding band taken on the macro setting of her Canon Powershot SD 1000.  She had just come back from Europe and put the rings on top of the Eiffel Tower that she purchased for 2 euros on the streets of Paris.  The rose came from a welcome back bouquet her fiance gave her when she arrived home.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings B18144609.jpg
blablalover5 took this where she works — at a laboratory!

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W181446.jpg
MMWedding took this with her Canon Powershot SC660 Digital Elph.  Her ring is hanging off a bamboo plant that were given by family friends at an engagement party.  Her friend said that the bamboo plant symbolized eternity and a long-lasting relationship.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings B181446012.jpg
SmallTownBride and her fiance are both accountants and they’re having their rings engraved with their common expression of love: “143″ which means I Love You.  They love numbers!

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144601.jpg
Mrs. 10/8/08 took this with a Sony Cybershot point and shoot, and edited it using Picnik.  The bakground is actually flexible Velcro curlers!

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144602.jpg
bche80 took this picture with a Nikon D80 and a Micro Nikkor 60mm lens.  She put the ring on an upside down bowl and fall leaves.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144603.jpg
Suzie took these with a 6 megapixel digital camera, then edited it in Windows Office Picture Manager.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W181445.jpg
bulldoggrl took this with her brand new Canon Rebel XS.  Her fiance picked this ring out all by himself — no one else helped or even knew!

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144501.jpg
tbarb took this shot the day after her wedding at brunch.  She used her table centerpieces (flower filled bamboo cages) as a backdrop.  Some of the cages held origami birds made out of their invitations!

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144502.jpg
thompsoc75 took this with her Sony Cybershot against a monogrammed pillowcase (designed by Wiley Valentine).  The pillowcase was made for a little known Italian tradition — you put in a wine glass and crush it at the wedding; the number of pieces the glass breaks into is the number of years you’ll have of wedded bliss.  thompsoc75’s wedding band was created using diamonds from a ring her grandmother gave her on her 18th birthday, and a pendant given to her by her grandfather.  The engraving in her husband’s ring reads: tutto l’amore 9-6-08 (she thought it meant All My Love, but a waiter in Italy told her that it meant nothing).

This is another picture from thompsoc75, with her rings placed among wine corks brought back from her Italian honeymoon.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings Picture 118 Copy
ankile’s fiance worked with a good friend and jeweler to design her ring.  It’s a bezel set white sapphire in a custom wave design ring.  They live in Hawaii and play in the water a lot, so it means a lot to her.  The ring is sitting amongst some fragrant tuberose — one of her favorite flowers.  Taken with a Pentax DSLR.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144504.jpg
jenn-dig took this shot with her Nikon S210.

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144505.jpg
runnergiirl took this with her Nikon Coolpix and edited with Picnik.  Her husband is holding a glass of champagne on New Year’s Eve.  They got all dressed up (he’s wearing the tux he wore at their October 24th wedding), even though they had no where to go!

Ring Shots Part VI :  wedding photography rings W18144506.jpg
Sezzy got engaged on New Year’s Eve and took these with her canon Elph.  The book is a gift from a college friend that was working on New Year’s Eve, so he missed the proposal, but this made him a part of it!  The ring was designed by her fiance and custom-made by a family friend.  It’s a 3 stone setting with 5 channel diamonds on each side of the band.

thompsoc75 it doesn’t mean “nothing” (!), it means “all the love”. It’s just not the “right” way to say it, you know? But I still think it means something. :)

Oh I hope this series makes a come back. Maybe even if its just once a month. I really enjoy it! I think the girls from this series really upped the bar, they’ve got some mad skills.
I’m always dazzled by the variety and “personality” of each ring shot.
