It has taken me so long to get this post up for these beautiful women (and one rockin’ man). There were so many images to choose from that it took me forever not only to edit the pictures but then to choose which ones I wanted to share here on the blog. Last month, I...

I ♥ Faces — March 14, 2011
The photo challenge over at I Heart Faces this week is sun flare. I have gotten some really cool images at my maternity sessions recently and I LOVE this one of Sarah. I don’t participate in these photo challenges regularly — I wish I could, but right now I’m limited to how much extra time...
Headshots for Shannon & Rodolfo
Had a great time with Shannon and her husband Rodolfo last weekend. We got some headshots for the two of them and their real estate business SeaReal Investments, Inc. Shannon is the close friend of my dear friend and former boss Amy. Doesn’t Shannon have the most stunning blue eyes? Thanks for meeting me in...
In the mail
What does this mean? The kids’ birthday party invitations are in the mail! Since Emma and Kasey’s birthdays are two years and two weeks apart, I designed two similar photo invitations and had them printed. Then I designed a very simple card with the info for both kids’ parties on it and just printed it...
MCP Project 52 | Week 1: Around the house
Not sure if I”ll be participating every week, but in the name of just doing it, here’s my entry for the MCP Project 52 (a photo a week). The theme for week one is Around the House. Entering way late (today starts week 2). Here’s hoping I can come up with some more creative photos...
Just doing it
I just spent the last 20 minutes scrolling through and reading posts from my old blog, my family blog. The blog where I never held much back and where I shared a lot more of our day-to-day life. The blog that held words written straight from my heart about my life, my struggles, our fun...
A fresh perspective
Before I had my second baby, every now and then, I got to drive off and handle a different kind of photo assignment than my usual shoots. I love my newborns, my families, my engaged couples … but I also adore challenging myself and trying to capture images that convey different messages than my regular...
Second look
Normally when I edit a client’s pictures, I go once through the entire line-up of images on my memory card without pause. I look at each one closely but don’t open up any to edit right away. Then I go through them a second time and choose the ones I want to edit for a blog...
I ♥ Faces — June 7
The photo challenge theme over at Iheartfaces this week is Play. With a toddler, I have hundreds of photos I could use for this challenge. But because I have a toddler AND an almost-4-month-old, I don’t have time to go through all my archives and pull out all my favorite laughing baby pictures that to...
Texture, Part II
Okay, here’s another one. I’m feeling guilty playing with these textures, actually. I don’t know why … it’s so fun and it does look pretty. I think I sort of feel that I’m cheating or something. I want my photography to be authentic and REAL … and clearly I’ve edited these images a lot in...
