“Shhhhh…Don’t tell anyone”

October 23, 2008

 I’m taking the day off tomorrow!!!!!  I’ve had a record breaking two weeks of photo sessions and my right shoulder and arm are killing me from lugging my big 70-200mm lens around.  Don’t get me wrong I’ve loved every moment of being out there shooting.  I would much rather be out there shooting then sitting at my computer editing.  Now that Ashley is helping with my digital darkroom work I can take on more sessions.  Thank you Ashley!  So now for a peek at the senior sessions I’ve shot in between all of the other sessions in the last two weeks.  It’s no surprise that I favor senior sessions above all of the other sessions I shoot.  If I lived in a larger city I would specialize in Seniors, but then again, I might miss chasing after 2 and 4 year olds.

My “New” Couch

October 23, 2008

  I found this wonderful old beat up couch last week at Bargain Town.  I had just finished up two senior sessions on that end of town and drove past and noticed it outside.  I’ve been looking for a couch or chair to use for sessions for awhile now and was so excited to find it.  The only problem is it’s HEAVY and it takes two people to load and unload it in and out of my SUV.  Saturday I used it twice, once for a Senior session and then for the Jackson family session.  Here is my “new”  Harvest gold couch

I was able to fit the whole family on it! I thought the flowers were a great added touch…great idea M’lee.

 The only one missing was Ty, Brittany’s Husband…He had a hunting trip planed.  We missed you Ty hope you were able to bring something home.

I like to take a few shots of Mom and Dad alone when I do a family session and Tom and M’lee were up for it.  I think I may offer “Reconnection Sessions” sessions for married couples, especially for those who didn’t have the opportunity to have an engagement session or for those who just want to have fun.  Let me know if you think its a good idea.

The last one is my favorite from the entire evening.  I had to lay on the ground for this shot but the results were worth it.  Tom, I did get all of those weed burrs out of my vest, it took awhile but they came out. Ü

Newborns

October 17, 2008

There is nothing like the sweet serenity surrounding a newborn and when you times it by two it’s even more special.  This week I had the opportunity to spend time with newborn twin sisters.  They are so tiny and beautiful.  It wasn’t hard to capture the bond these two brought with them from the womb. 

I love the wonderment of their sibs in this image

 

Yesterday morning I spent time with sweet baby boy K.  I enjoyed being around his new parents watching them kissing and cuddling him.  I couldn’t help capturing a few when he fell asleep.

A loving fathers touch… He’s beautiful Ryan!
