A few more

Here are a few more from the other night. I had a hard time picking which ones I liked best. I know there are more of the older sister, but we spent more time on her. She's working on a "special project", so we took a lot of pictures for her. Hope she likes them as much as I do!

The bros

Here are a couple shots of the brothers from last night. Aren't they cute?!!! The Mom of these cuties was trying to get a more serene look from the kids and the youngest one was so funny. He couldn't NOT smile. It was so opposite from what I'm used to. I'm used to trying to get them to smile and somehow we were saying "don't smile. No smiling". It was too funny. I loved the way these shots looked in the Mocha Baby action(thanks Ginnie). Then you can really focus on their faces. Cute family!

Absolute Beauties!

I had so much fun doing this photo shoot tonight. These 2 beautiful girls were so fun to photograph. They have such stunning eyes and really were so easy to get good pictures of. They are so beautiful and I wonder if they really know it. I hope these pictures help give them a little idea of how beautiful they are.
We tooke some pictures of their cute brothers so check back to see those. Here's a quick sneak peek. I have a ton to go through but I have to give a lesson in church tomorrow, so I have to stop before the night is gone!


When I finished processing this one, it totally made me think she should be in Twilight as one of the Cullen family. Yes, I'm a nerd. I read all the books and loved them, so shoot me! But seriously, don't you think she could pull it off?!

And I can't get over how beautiful she looks and how dramatic and awesome her eyes are!

Thanks girls!!! It was so fun and you are truly beautiful!

Just Me

My camera and lens are STILL in the shop. It's driving me crazy! But I have my backups and thought I'd try some self portraits. It's not easy. I liked the way this one turned out. Not my normal processing, but kind of cool.

Another Fall

This fall was so beautiful. We printed off into a 30x40 to put in Brian's office and it looks awesome. I love it. I think I'm becoming a fan of nature photography. Still lots to learn, but a fun start.

Studio time!

Did some messin' around in the studio today. I haven't really pulled my lights out much in the last 5 years since I've had them because there hasn't really been much room to use them, but we have this great room now and so it's fun to get them going again. Snapped a few of Cooper today. He was pretty good at working with me, but it's hard for me to hurry and catch that sparkle when his sister is sitting on the floor in front of him with Dora tiles. Next time, no Dora!

Too early!

We had a get together with a bunch of our friends from dental school and I caught a sight that was just a little premature! 2 girls giggling at the confident male. It was so funny and just a sign of things to come! I thought it would fit the contest this week at I {heart} faces. The theme this week is completely candid.

Family of 3

My cousin and his crew came up for some photos the other day. Aren't they a good lookin' family? The little guy didn't last long, but long enough to get a cute family one. Thanks for calling me. It's easy to take good pictures of good looking people!

I {heart} faces

There's this great site that does contests on photos and the theme this round was contemplative. I thought this was a great one of Cooper and might fit. I know it's a repeat post, but I love this picture.

What to do what to do??!!!!

I took both my cameras and a lens in for some repairs and cleaning, so I've been without my camera for almost 2 weeks now. Well, I have my point and shoot, which I hate, so basically without a camera. I'm starting to get a little ansy. I have 2 photoshoots this weekend and am anxious to get them back. In the meantime though, I've been going through pictures and trying to get them a little more organized and I came across this one of Isabelle from last year. I thought it was super cute, so had to add it on until I shoot something new. Got some projects in mind for the near future, so check back!

My little girl

Had a little alone time with Caroline yesterday. She's so sweet. She's been great at letting me take pics of her lately. I'll call her name and without even looking she'll strike a pose. So funny. Love how her eyes just stand out. I love this girl. I know the first one is a little over softened, but I liked the feel it gave the picture.

Buffingtons

While we were in PA, I took some family pictures of my sister in law and her fam. We did a trade. I took her pics and she gave me a massage. Not a bad deal. I thought they turned out cute. Lots of great places to take pictures. Hope you like them MB.

A country road

There's this scene just down the street from Bri's house. I always love seeing it as we drive up the dirt road. This day the clouds were out, so I ran and grabbed my camera and ran back to take a picture of it. I'll be posting a few things from our trip as the days go by and I get time to go through them.

Ricketts Glen

Spent all day our last day in PA going to Rickett's Glen State Park. It was beautiful. Thanks to the rain the day before, we had a full show from all the falls. It was a great hike and many photo-ops. I think this is one of my faves so far.

Grand Teton

Had a fun weekend seeing the Grand Tetons. I've been wanting to switch a little of my focus in photography to play around with landscape and macro. They are totally different from portrait. Since I recently moved again, photo shoots are few and far between, so I thought I'd give these 2 a go. They're harder than they look. Especially landscape. Oh well. Here's my attempt from this past weekend. Also my first play around with photostitching. Since I don't have a wide angle, I played with photostitching. Not too bad.
