Smile, Geoffrey

August 25, 2012 by Dave and Ruth Brendle

Geoffrey makes people smile! 

Dave has a extra ministry – We call it his “Green Screen Photography.”  It’s part time – he sets up the studio about once every three months.

This is the process:  (1) Take pictures of missionaries in front of the green screen. (2) Use a program to automatically remove the green. (3) Drop the portrait into a background.

Sometimes the missionaries want him to make a prayer card, and sometimes they just want portraits to give as gifts. Either way, taking the photos is a free service to help our fellow missionaries.  And Dave loves doing it.  The picture of Ruth below is a sample of a finished portrait.

18 photo sessions over this past week.  All were staff members at NTM here in Sanford.   

Geoffrey?  Sometimes he’s the subject while Dave tests lighting. But mostly he hangs out behind the camera. Kids like him. Not only is he cute, he talks when Dave squeezes his ear. And on a few occasions this week, when adults looked stiff, Dave called on Geoffrey to make them smile.
