3 little girls

I had the opportunity to do a photo shoot for three little girls (the two youngest are sisters, and the oldest one is their cousin). Not only are they all gorgeous, but they were so fun to photograph.

Cutest little boy ever!

So this photo shoot was actually several weeks ago, but I have been bad and have just gotten around to posting them. I had a great time with this family, and LOVE how the photos turned out!

Balance

So the past week and a half I have been recuperating. The amazing trip to the beach with my high school girlfriends (Dewey Beach Life forever!) really centered me, and helped me get my life back into balance. For the past month I feel like my schedule has been filled with photo sessions, hours of photo editing, constant reading about photography, and an obsession to get a business started right now (oh and my full time job). So I have taken a step back, calmed down a little and am going to enjoy my summer and going back to basics. I just signed up for a 10 week photography class which I am really hoping gives me the basis of understanding and critical critique that will make me a better photographer. I have also taken up rock climbing, to give my life a little more variety. Although I only took my first course yesterday, I really enjoyed it and hope to continue. I am reading more and watching less TV (due to the lack of good summer programming), and am looking to have a more balanced between family (Todd), friends, hobbies, fun, and work. I do promise that I will have some new pictures up soon. I realize that if I never post, people will stop looking, so I will try to be better!!

I love photographing babies!

Yesterday I did a photo session with a cute little 1 month old. We had a lot of fun and he was really easy to work with. I like photographing the little ones before they can walk (much easier to pose). Warning... I put up a LOT because there were so many great ones and I couldn't choose!

Easten

I did a re-shoot recently of a cute family down by a lake near my house. I tried to make it look like we weren't actually in my suburban town, and hope I succeeded. I did this shoot in all RAW and all manual, so it was a first for me. These were my favorite of the photo-shoot.

Black and White

I am so luck to have friends with such a cute and cooperative baby! I had the privilege of getting to photograph Barrack again and tried something new. I created a makeshift studio with a black blanket, a large pillow, a great widow, and Todd as my assistant! Too bad I forgot my lambskin rug in the car! I also tried out some new B&W editing techniques.
